Meet BINX!

Posted by shaz on 31-Jul-2008 (1969 reads)

Say hello to Binx, the ultra-cute hero of my first PC game, Nuts About Nuts

In Nuts About Nuts, you take on the role of Binx, a cute but not-so-innocent squirrel, weaving your way through the treetops, collecting items as you go and trying to stay out of reach of the farmers in pursuit (something about barrels of corn...). And yes, there's dynamite!

Artist Mateo Williford (BingBang Studios) has managed to capture a perfect blend of youth, eagerness, and more than a slight hint of mischief, to bring this adorable little guy to life.

We are currently looking good to release Binx on to the world at Viva la Revolution on August 24.

Aug 24th is actually good timing, since my last paper for my lab is due on the 27th... so I'll have time to play after that. Binx looks very, very cute, btw. Can't wait to see what kind of havoc he'll be wreaking. Good luck with finishing up your game, shaz!
