Quaker Meeting Simulator

Sprocket — Sat, 28 Nov 2015 23:10:43 +0000

A quiet impressionistic simulator of the experience of a first Quaker meeting. Probably best played at a slow, meditative pace, not desperately trying to click through to the end.

Gout Pony's 'A Family Gouting': The Game

Sprocket — Wed, 03 Apr 2013 18:07:31 +0000

Gout's about! There's no need to grout! Don't pout! Get some gout!

Gout Pony's 'A Family Gouting: The Game'™ is the ultimate experience in gout! Play avant-garde author Robert Coover as he fails to care about obstacles! Pass through the gnashing jaws of Jeremy Kyle! Eat asparagus and organ meats to give yourself the condition that everybody's talking about!

No offense is intended towards those who really suffer from gout.

Genres abound in this absurdist, experimental, but deeply playable game.

Each short level is based upon one of the songs from Gout Pony's first EP 'A Family Gouting'™. Far more than an in-joke, yet so much less than a real game, this may be the first genuine "art game"™ to be developed to be played alongside an EP and both game and EP can be enjoyed together TODAY for -- no money -- ! The levels follow the track listing (with track 8 as a *bonus level*) however the entire long-form EP/ short-form LP has been converted to scintillating MIDI form for his/ her pleasure.

And live the game!

The Wall (a game in therapy)

Sprocket — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 03:41:54 +0000

Breakout as a metaphor for therapy.

Play through over *5* different therapy sessions with unique clients and their medically fascinating problems. Uncover their traumas from breaking down the "wall" of repression, but make sure to listen to what they have to say, unless you dig a little too deep...

Based on a parodic therapy site I made in high school which was hacked and taken over by a minor religious fundamentalist and the times I feel fed up with therapy. The satirical aim is diffuse and muddled.

The Body Story

Sprocket — Sun, 17 Jun 2012 04:40:07 +0000

Overcome obstacles before you by choosing the correct organ. Puzzles are based upon the organ/ body part's function, so ponder before choosing, because one mistake and you lose the game! It's quite teh epic adventure this one and I feel pleased to have churned it out for the 5-year anniversary!

The OCD Simulator

Sprocket — Sun, 20 May 2012 02:32:51 +0000

Experience the most fashionable mental condition since 'Monk'! Run the gauntlet of fear! Mould! Germs! Water! It's an authentic autobiographic, self-deprecating but genuinely sincere game about having OCD. Finish completing the rituals in time in basic adventure game puzzles in this gripping real life simulator. After all, aren't we all "a little OCD"™

More seriously (ahem!) if you are, like me, a sufferer and wish to discuss the game, its merits and/ or its shortcomings, feel free to send me a message or email me at

Sadness: The Game

Sprocket — Wed, 16 May 2012 11:29:00 +0000

You have to rescue the head of Noah from the inner back chamber of a giant hunchback. A pretty anxious game created over a few hours. Probably only notable for the sound design. Play with headphones in a darkened room, if you please. Much love.
