Sigmo - BaconGameJam 07

Over the weekend, Jason took part in the BaconGameJam, where you have 48 hours to make a game from scratch. The theme for this jam was "hungry." To see a full list of the games created, click here.

Jason's game, SigMo, is a sci-fi survival game about a stranded crew trying to survive on a planet full of danger. You'll have to search for food, fight off wild animals, and try to survive for thirty days until help can arrive.

This game also marks our entry into Flash, allowing you to play our games in your web browser. No download required!

Asteroids - October/November Release

Alright, we are back! Had to extend October's game through to November due to life, but we are proud to finally present Asteroids. In this game, you must fight your way through an asteroid field against a barrage of various enemies, all while avoiding the asteroids! You're too outnumbered to make it out alive, but you can take as many of them down as possible (hint: go for the high score)!

As always, this game requires no installation. Simply unzip the game and run the executable!

Sonar - September Release

This month's game is titled Sonar. In this game, you play as the captain of a submarine, hunting for the enemy sub in a new and unknown environment. Much like a real submarine, you must use sonar to see what's around you. Once you find the enemy sub, you must destroy it with torpedoes before it destroys you. A new map is randomly generated each time you play the game, so you can't try to memorize the maps. You must simply hunt.

To download, simply click the link below. There's no installation required. Just unzip the folder and run the included executable.

A QUICK NOTE FOR LAPTOP USERS: Several laptop manufacturers disable the touchpad when the keyboard is in use to prevent moving the mouse while typing. Because of this, you will only be able to fire a ping or torpedo when you aren't holding down any of the keys. We recommend using an external mouse to alleviate this problem.

Download link. (7 MB. Windows only)

Have fun!

The Adventures of Bud and Spud - August Release

Here is the first ever publication from Sophisticated Sparrow Gaming! Entitled The Adventures of Bud and Spud, this title is a two-character platforming game, in which players must use the strengths and skills of each character to solve puzzles and maneuver through each level! Here are a few screenshots to give you an idea of what the game is like:

To download, simply click the link below. There's no installation required. Just unzip the folder and run the included executable. Also, it has come to our attention that there is a slight typo in Level 2. Instead of Bud, it is Spud who benefits from the use of caterpillars.
