Melodive and Oveja

I couple of days ago I got this game from one of the readers of this blog. It is all procedural, including the progression of music. The name is Melodive and it is available for iOS.


Even without the help of mind altering substances, the game takes you to a different dimension. I did find the control scheme a bit frustrating, but it seems there is a whole class of games using this form of tilt, rotate interface. To many of you out there the controls may seem standard.

And there is this other non-procedural game a Russian friend did from scratch, including programming, graphics and music. He named it Oveja, which in Spanish means "sheep". (Why a Russian guy is giving Spanish names to his games, it is beyond me.) The game is fun and equally surreal, but on a different level.


It runs in Android and it is available free from Google Play:

If you like air-traffic control games you should give it a try. It is like these games, but with sheep in it. I did not get why the black sheep needed to be segregated from the white sheep. This is 2013, those times should be over.

The next version is rumored to include sheep poop and other equally interesting gameplay mechanics.
