Travels

Hi, BlogFans. I have an announcement: Awesome Town is moving.

I have switched blogs before and I apologize for zipping all over the place like this. But, I've finally decided to take some advice I got a while back and switch Awesome Town to a Tumblr.

I have seen a good amount of peoples' Tumblrs lately and I've been really impressed by the site. I've also realize Tumblr is a better place for the type of blogging I'm doing on Awesome Town.

Blogger is good, but its best for the kind of blogging we're doing over at The Ron Blog (which is about to go through some changes of its own, but I assure you it will remain on Blogspot). Tumblr has won me over as a better site for the sort of stuff I post on Awesome Town.

You can check out my new Tumblr that, I assure you, will run a lot like how Awesome Town ran, here. It's no longer called "Awesome Town," though.

I took this move as an opportunity to change the name. My Tumblr's called "Party All The Time."

Thanks, everyone, for supporting Awesome Town over this year-and-a-half or so that it has been active. I hope y'all check out my tumbling once I get cracking over there.

Best,

Welcome To The Terrordrome

For a while now I've been thinking a game like Terrordrome should exist: a fighting game starring horror movie characters.

This game is heavily influenced by Mortal Kombat which, if you think about it, has many characters that belong in a slasher film actually. All your favorite Slashers are in it: Freddie, Jason, Ghostface from Scream, Mike Myers from Halloween, Leatherface from Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Chucky...even Ash from Evil Dead and Army Of Darkness.

I've embedded a video of some gameplay footage below. You can check Terrordrome's official site here where you can download a demo if you have a PC (it won't run on Macs easily). I have a Mac so I can't play it. I'll have to be satisfied watching videos of the game for now.

Costume Quest Trailer

Tim Schafer (probably best known for his original Xbox masterpiece Psychonaughts) is a real visionary when it comes to creating groundbreaking and extremely entertaining videogames.

His new game Costume Quest has a genius premise. It's halloween, and peoples costumes turn them into all sorts of different beings. Actually, there's kind of a Buffy episode like this game. Kind of.

The premise for Costume Quest is a great way to get unicorns, robots, dinosaurs, skeletons...and so on, all into one game. And, presumably you can BE these things by dressing up as them. Which is awesome. Also, Halloween is probably my favorite holiday.

Here's the trailer:
