Came across this unique flash game and thought I’d post it here.
It’s called Karoshi: Suicide Salaryman and basically you try to make your guy die in each level.
Taken from the game page itself: “Karoshi” is a Japanese word and means “death by overwork”. In this game many things are not what you’d expect and the goal of each level is counter-intuitive: you need to die.
Each stage presents a new challenge. There are several objects you can use to solve puzzles, and in later levels the game will even break it’s own rules to surprise you.
50 clever levels and a boss fight at the end. We hope you have fun (killing yourself)!
If you have played the Game Maker version, YES this is an official Flash version!
Not difficult really (who doesn’t know how to die??). But still rather addicting (the game I mean, not the dying part).

No embedding the game here, so to check it out just visit:
Nintendo’s new ad for Wario Land: Shake It, a new game on the Wii. It’s an excellent example of using something most people are used to (YouTube) and doing something totally unexpected with it. Simply out-of-the-box marketing.
Technology students mess with dormitory lghts to put on a good show.
And guess what the theme is?
It’s actually pretty cool. I wouldn’t say it’s too hard to accomplish, give they’re technology students. Once you have the right wiring to the main switch, all else should be peanuts for them. Oh, and of course no one is turning the lights on and off physically.
Seems like PhysX from NVidia is going to be the next step in graphic card acceleration technology. No doubt it is also going to be a strong marketing point for NVidia as soon as more games start supporting it.
This is the last video from the winners of the YouTube 2006 Video Awards that I’m posting. There are actually 3 more winners but I feel they’re undeserving. They probably won because of spam votes. For more information on the exact winners, check out YTAwards.
Onto the winner for Most Adorable Video, I consider this to be the most touching video too. An animation video…
WARNING: Watching this may also make you go in tears!
