Foreplay: Incoboto

By Jeffrey Demelo on May 26th, 2012 (9 comments)

Dene Carter clearly loves making video games, and harnesses an artistic vision so dear to his heart, that he'd rather do it all himself.  It's an absurd idea that rarely births a game this good.  On the surface, Incoboto is parts Super Mario Galaxy and Portal in 2D; dive deeper though, and the commentary beneath the surface will leave you questioning our future and how we treat our planet.

[ Foreplay is a teaser-feature for touch gaming, primarily covering iOS games on iPad. If you have a game you'd like to see teased by Foreplay, feel free to e-mail me at: gameclucker@gmail.com

Also, feel free to ask questions in the comments...I'll gladly answer 'em.

    Cool feature! I feel dumb though, that I didn't understand the wordplay on, "foreplay" until you said it.

    I know there's a market for this touch-gaming stuff, but I've never found myself interested in it. Not at all. Even the mobile side of gaming has my interest. Regardless, this is a decent article with a great setup for continuity, and you should be proud of thinking of something as clever as 'Foreplay.' I look forward to more installments.

      I hope to slowly peek your interest with this feature. I have a great lineup of games for Foreplay that should - at very least - hold as proof that the market is slowly growing toward the "core". Republique anyone? ;)

    This may seem like a dumb question but is the game for iPad only or is it also available for the iPhone? Also nice use of the word "foreplay" ;)

      Not a dumb question... It is strictly iPad, at the moment. I'll be sure to note wether its iPad or universal on iOS devices in the video. If you hear iPad though, assume its strictly on that device. Future episodes will have that noted more obviously. Thanks for the feedback.
