FLASH FRIDAY!!!
January 4, 2008 8:13 PM   Subscribe

This may be the coolest flash game ever. Although it's graphics are nothing to write home about, the game play (which I will wisely follow kotaku's example in not spoiling for you) is quite simply incredible. It's a unique and quick little work break for you via kotaku and Metafilter.

Seriously. It's awesome.

When you're done with this one, you may also enjoy 3-D Logic, which as far as I can tell, has not made the front page before.

Ummmm...what?

Technically, 3-D Logic has still not made the front page.

um, ignore me, kind of, you obviously knew that, it's in the post. I have not slept in a VERY long time, I'll wander off now.

What the fuck?

I'm guessing it was to showcase 3-D Logic? If so seems you went about it kind of backwards. *off to check out other link*

Wow. I think this wins the "most balls" FPP of the year.

HOW DID YOU DO THAT?

For those of you not getting it: the game in question involves merging several instances of yourself into the same timeframe, double-posting it deliberately is a play on the game mechanics.

Yeah ... huh .. wha?

Oh, yeah. Ha-ha. What?

I guess after playing that enough everything and everyone might seem in need of multiples...

Jeezus, Malor, I blinked and reloaded MeFi. Thanks much.

This FPP is useless without the image tag.

I'm just going to tear chunks of this off for Astro Zombie 3. I don't have the energy to let him loose in the thread.

YOU WILL FEAST TONIGHT, MY FRIEND!

I know how this (recursive) game ends:
"Be sure to drink your Ovaltine!"

Cursor * 10 is really awesome once you figure it out (and if the responses in this thread are any indication, apparently I picked it up very quickly).

I love it! The triple post is pure brilliance.

I like that the second and third posts are exactly twelve hours apart. Now are there seven more coming down the pike? Poor cortex will have to play whack-a-mole with them.

This has all happened before, and it will all happen again.

I DO dig the performance art FPP skills, btw Malor. My only regret is that I can't be wacky on demand. Damn you sleep deprivation!
posted by Stunt at 8:34 PM on January 4, 2008


I see what you did there.
posted by mrnutty at 8:35 PM on January 4, 2008


You... you have to play the game with yourself.
You play the game over and over again.
just like...

Anyone want to talk about 3D logic? I think it's level number is borked. Either that, or I'm really forgetful, but I think it's told me the level I'm on is 16 for a couple levels now.

Yeah, but the year is young, just wait, something else will show up.. perhaps tomorrow.
