(this is a) META game!
Bloody Monkey
Games are made of rules.
Every other game makes you follow its rules. In this game, finding rules is the game.
It's as simple as reaching the high score. But you don't know how to score a single point.
Based on a essential but fun arena shooter, (this is a) META game! changes on every level its rules.
You will try to shoot enemies... Nothing. You will try to grab bonuses... Nothing... Have you already tried to shoot bonuses?
Rules are made to be broken, but you have to know them, first.

A House in California
Cardboard Computer
'A House in California' is a surreal, narrative game about four characters who bring a house to life. These four characters are based on relatives of mine (two grandmothers and two great-grandmothers). Within the game, the player guides the four characters to engage with environments and activities drawn from a combination of memory, research, poetry, and fantasy.
Aesthetically, the game draws inspiration from 'Mystery House', developed in 1980 by Roberta and Ken Williams. 'Mystery House' is a murder mystery that drives its characters progressively deeper into the titular house by offering the player material verbs such as "go", "open", and "take". 'A House in California' inverts these qualities of materiality and violent murder into a peaceful but surreal character study which draws the player into the inner lives of its four characters.

A Mobius Proposal
Matt Gilgenbach
A Mobius Proposal is a co-op puzzle platformer I created in order to propose to my girlfriend. Players are on opposite sides of a Mobius band, and they must work together in order to overcome obstacles. I incorporated the proposal in the game by displaying a fake low battery message and hiding the ring inside the battery pack of the controller.

She's in the cool Beat world of poets, painters, junkies, and thieves. You can switch between the two leads at any time. By the end, you'll have dealt drugs, blackmailed a priest, murdered at least once, and possibly demolished a nightclub, depending on how you play. When husband and wife are finally reunited, have they changed too much? Can they trust each other? In a noir story, anyone can die at the end.
The whole shebang is pretty much created by one guy, who left EA after six years to make adventures.
Please note this is in-progress, and uses temp music and characters.
