A Cure for Friendship

“Good friends | game together | to death”

OK, I had this stupid idea for the Versus Competition over at tigsource. “a cure for friendship” is an unispired button masher and tendinitis strengthener. Your friend and you can follow Professor Otto Nilsson’s treatment and get rid of you mutual affection.

Very simple game here. I guess It’s more of a toy than anything else. The setting is kind of disturbing, but I also wanted to mention the game never rewards players for electrocuting each other. You can easily get to the end without harming your opponent at all.

Game features:

- Awesome chiptunes by reetva.
- Unforgiving PVP, two-players in one keyboard, action.
- Combo rewards for fast fingers.
- Randomly triggered encounters with Doctor Fuzzy.
- 8 unlockable features.
- Nikola Tesla.
- An ending full of bitter revenge.

How to play?

Two players in one keyboard. Fill your electricity gauge as fast as you can. Once at full capacity, you can unleash a therapeutic shock discharge on your opponent. Be super quick on your charging for a combo.

Player 1 charges his gauge with “Q” and throws discharges with “W”
Player 2 charges his gauge with “O” and throws discharges with “P”

The first player to deplete his opponent’s affection bar, wins. Play 25 games in a row to unlock (almost) every feature the game has to offer.

He encontrado esta presentación, perdida en un CD viejo. Formaba parte de un trabajo más amplio que preparé hace bastante tiempo sobre marketing y videojuegos y que trataba de analizar el giro que tomó la publicidad a partir de la entrada de Sony en el mercado de las consolas.

Como ejemplo escogí este ‘Riqueza Mental’ -uno de los spots publicitarios más recordados del artista y director de video británico Chris Cunningham- e intenté analizar las claves de su funcionamiento y su mensaje.
