¡Atención! Los Reyes estarán defendiendo su copa, a partir de mañana contra los Azules de St. Louis. Espero que todo ministro cuerpo capaz de apoyar a los Reyes Magos en su búsqueda de una segunda taza.
As we all know the Superbowl is upon us and the Arizona Chirp Chirps will be facing off against the Benrapelesberger and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Oh wait, spacing…this year it’s the Packers who will most likely lose to Polamalu’s hair and give the Steelers their 3rd Superbowl win in 6 years. Needless to say this year has no Manning, or major underdogs to pull for, it should be a good game, but I’m struggling to care…
But what I do care about is the Flapjacks, Puppy Bowl, BBQ, Adolphus, Backyard Games, Me, Gambling and Brotherhood. For the past 6 Superbowls IFS has had a meeting followed by a Super Bowl party, 4 years straight in SB, and last year in LA. The Sunday is brutal after a weekend of boozing and few actually drink enough to be called drunk, but jokes about the commercials and puppies pooping makes it all worthwhile, even when you get hammered and have to cram into the back of a Rabbi’s red truck with a mustachio hipster so you don’t have to take the train the next morning.
The point I’m trying to make is: I know the OC seems like a far drive, and that driving may make it so you can’t get drunk like a monk, or even watch the whole game, but in the long run the game is not what matters, but how much Nova wins by betting that Christina Aguliera’s national anthem song time will go over 1 min. 50 sec.
I encourage all IFS ministers to dig deep and come down for the first IFS OC Superbowl party. Notice is short and Glory may make sad drewings all day as a result, but come on down to Costa Mesa and party at the President house.
Media + TechnologyFlash Games, Games, Video GamesComments Off on Flash Game Friday – Super Mario Star Scramble 2
Another week has passed, and after a hiatus last week Flash Game Friday is back. This week’s game is the first Flash Game Friday falls into the knock-off category – Super Mario Star Scramble 2 developed by Kenney.
The game is a knock-off or homage to Super Mario as it uses Super Mario art, sounds, and ideas. Many game developer communities focus on this development approach in order to make new levels or ideas. Some go as far to actually rip the graphical sprites from the original games through modding or game de-compilers.
It puts a small spin on the classic game as you are not just trying to progress from left to right until you reach a goal, but are tasked with collecting 3 star coins hidden throughout the level in order to open the door at the start position of the level.

This Friday’s Flash game leaves me a bit underwhelmed. It’s not bad, but I had high hopes. Still, the subject matter and scope make it worthy of one Friday on the site. From the same team that brought you The Last Stand, and The Last Stand 2, Con Artist Games did not tone down the difficulty for this war sim.
It took me five tries to pass the second level, the 5th try I beat it in a minute, so my advice would be strike while the irons hot. Give em hell, and don’t send your soldiers to the slaughter, cause they get super bummed. You get guided through how to play, but it’s most just clicking and some strategy.
It’s been a while since I’ve made a non-administrative post, and now that we have our new system I think it’s time to reintroduce a weekly post. As I’ve started working and learning more and more about game development, I have a new appreciation for the little guy. In small teams some amazing and creative games are made. They may not have the fanciest graphics, but the themes and concepts are always pretty unique. Which leads me to my first post in this category – Cream Wolf – a game that uses old school graphics and gameplay, but presents a really unique story.
I recently posted on this on my personal site, but it’s too good not to share with all of I.F.S. I won’t ruin the concept with a summary, but just go play it when you’re bored today or this weekend. I’ll follow this up with a post every Friday of an awesome and free game.
It’s been a long time in the making, but I’ve finally reached a good spot to release the new I.F.S. game – Flappy Does Adventures.
Check it out and let me know how it runs. There are 5 levels and too many changes from the last one to list. I don’t know how it will run on each computer so let me know if you experience any issues.
The game uses Mochi games accounts, and you can use this to just sign-in with your Facebook account to track your scores. The game also saves your progress to the computer so as you beat levels you can jump back in at the next level.
The Celebration of R&S and MOM’s birth is upon us. As of now, we have 12 confirmed attending this event and another 8 or 10 likely to join. Wow Dad, that group is big…and aggressive.
To review, we’ll be making party at MOM and Old Glory’s new playahwr pad on Friday night – with bars most likely to follow. The next morning we’ll head over to the race track where the racing, boozing, buffeting and birth celebrating will take place. The Gates open at 10:30, se we will be meeting out front a little before then…late comers will find us at the “Finish Line” Restaurant. With Hollywood Park Casino next door, we’ll most likely head over there for a bit, to double our horse race winnings of course. What comes next is still open…so feel free to post suggestions.
Interior Design, Revelry & Spirits, myself and my full-blooded Asian friend Ed have booked a room at the LAX Hilton for Saturday night. The hotel is playahwr, a quick cab ride to the racetrack, and only 100 bucks for the night. Also, it’s the hotel from Heat, where De Niro shoots that misunderstood ex-team member in his hotel suite. “Look at me…”
A strong member of the Irvine crew, Chuck Nutt, will be in attendance this weekend…we’ll be celebrating his birth as well – he’s definitely Guest Member (if not full-time Member) material.
Ok, post comments and questions if you have them. Remember, we’re celebrating the births of two very important IFS Ministers…so dress in your finest and prepare to make a big party.
