That’s right, folks. iBailout!!, the world’s greatest game about the Federal Reserve and most loving and innovative Ms. Pac-Man homage is asking for your support in the 28th Annual Golden Joystick Awards.
In the Downloadable, Portable, and Ultimate Game of the Year Categories, iBailout!! is counting on your votes to propel it onto the Golden Joystick Awards Shortlists and beyond.
I’ve already written previously in great depth on why iBailout!! is awesome, but, the executive summary is thus:
- iBailout!! is a fun new twist on the classic Ms. Pac-Man formula: Enemy mobs work like snakes that grow depending upon how much money you eat and, if you cut them in half while on a martial law/power-up run, they’ll form two completely separate enemy mobs, adding an entirely new tactical layer of depth and strategy to the classic arcade experience.
- iBailout!! represents a brand new school of thought on the traditional arcade experience and, through a liberal 1-UP bonus system and bailout bonus rounds (’cause you’re too awesome to fail), we’ve delivered a game that’s accessible to everyone, yet still rewards those old-school, practiced arcade skills.
- Finally, iBailout!! isn’t just another pretty face and is in fact a fun, mature game for fun, mature people (if you’re reading this, that’s you). Its vicious satire of the Federal Reserve, in the seemingly innocent form of a Ms. Pac-Man homage, offers the sort of real and meaningful gaming experience that you just can’t get anywhere else–on your iPhone, or off.
For these reasons and more, please vote iBailout!! in the Downloadable, Portable and Ultimate Game of the Year Categories in this year’s 28th Annual Golden Joystick Awards–and please be snappy about it too, ’cause voting ends on the 22nd.
Much thanks and only the heartiest of iBailout!!’s, all.
