# Have you been reading the indie game blog.
Loads of quite long and really good games.

# I have, yeah. I fucking love the demakes on there recently. Even though the YHTBTR makes me feel stupid.
(I helped save b3ta! Ttssattsr, Tue 2 Sep 2008, 19:07, archived)
# That YHTBTR demake made no sense, I got to the burning snake bit and then nothing. Then I got fed up of the ridiculously slow walking speed.

This I started playing yesterday just to check it out quickly, then ending up playing until about 3am all the way to the end of the game: www.indiegames.com/blog/2008/09/freeware_game_pick_iji_daniel.html

Also, this I missed the first time it was on the blog and is amazing: www.indiegames.com/blog/2007/11/polarity_1.html

# Ah, yes, I caught Polarity and bookmarked it. I've not quite got around to playing it yet.
Also with the YHTBTR, there's a fuse in one of the windows. What to do with it, I don't know.

# Did you play the other mazapan game they made a month back, following the same naming system?
Linked direct to the zip so the pictures on the download page don't ruin the surprise: www.mazapan.se/lab/No%20More%20Sweden/YHTFTE.zip

Worth opening up now for the music alone.
