George’s Squizzy Griffin is the work of Scott Watson, abusing a concept that predates SYNSO and is set within the SYNSO universe. It is difficult.

Fish Fish Bang Bang is a videogame. Collect gems. Shoot fish. Rainbow stars!

Throughout July both myself and the uber lovely Farbs of Captain Forever, Fishie Fishie Fifty and Playpen battled to the death to make the best game from each others work over at Indie Kombat.

Controlled using a single button, help Fishie Fishie defend the universe from errant fish invaders determined to give him a hug. A deadly hug of poison fish love. Stop the hugs by blowing their fishy faces off with multicoloured lasers.

Fish Fish Bang Bang is based on characters created and owned by Farbs.

It is inspired by Bedlam and Llamasoft and chip shops.

Fish Fish Bang Bang features:

• Insanely colourful effects.
• Play with only one button or switch
• Look ma, no hands! A game that plays itself if you don’t want to
• Full version contains configurable effects levels and many more stages
• Awesome music by Swith
• Laser beams and fish
• Flashing lights. Lots of them

A 15 level demo is available to download now from Indie Kombat.

Fish And Relative Dimensions In Squid.

The Ambiomat is a one switch digital toy. It was designed for Barrie Ellis of OneSwitch.org.uk.

You can download it for free.

The Ambiomat is an ambient art package designed for use with a single switch. It is an 11×8 canvas designed to produce abstract block artwork that can look decent regardless of your ability to interact.

On the title screen, press the switch (assigned to the space bar) to enter the palette selection screen. The ambiomat will automatically scan through each palette. Press the switch to select the palette.

Once a palette has been selected, The Ambiomat moves to the 11×8 grid. You are then able to place down one colour at a time upon the grid by pressing the switch down on the grid block you wish to paint upon. Once a complete lap of the grid has been completed, The Ambiomat moves on to the next colour in the palette. Once all the colours have been cycled through, you are then given an “empty” block with which to delete blocks from the grid.

After the delete block has been used across the entire grid, The Ambiomat automatically saves a .png file of the results in the folder you store The Ambiomat in.

Pressing the switch once more will return you to the title screen.

The Ambiomat also has a few keyboard controls that you can use to shape it to your ability. Numbers 0-9 on the keyboard (note: not the number pad) will adjust the speed of the cursor as it cycles through the grid.

The plus and minus keys on the number pad enable you to switch effects on and off. To use The Ambiomat as an art package, it is recommended the effects remain off. To get the full experience of The Ambiomat, we naturally recommend the effects are switched on.

By default, The Ambiomat is set to both the slowest cycle speed and effects off. Once you have settled on an appropriate speed and choice of effects, The Ambiomat will remember these settings next time you load. You only need to adjust either once. There are audio cues to indicate that an adjustment has been made.
