Like many who was at the Freeplay 2010 awards ceremony, I was more than curious to see the game that had took out the "Best Design in a Game" award which included finalists such as The Voxel Agents with Train Conductor.
Up Down Ready was submitted to the Freeplay committee by Sword Lady & The Viking, however, as they mentioned in their speech upon receiving the award, they had not released the game at the time.
It has been released now, however, and you can check it out at www.kongregate.com here
A simple, retro two-button game. At first, it may look like every other flash game you ever played – but here, the rules can change at a moment’s notice. Be prepared for anything!
Winner of the 2010 Freeplay Award for Best Design in a Game.
Sword Lady & The Viking are third year students in the Games Design course at Griffith University who developed Up Down Ready as a first semester project for 2010. Up Down Ready was created with Adam Atomic's free Flixel library.
