The Gatekeeper has just been submitted to the AppStore. I’ve also updated the online game with the new version. It has a lot of graphical fixes. I haven’t noticed but the old version really fell behind since it was originally completed years ago.
So… This one is way better.

ABOUT:
Tic-tac-toe has always been a popular example when studying artificial intelligence. It is impossible for a human to win against a machine without an infinite amount of draws (depending on the skill of the human player). It’s a game that will have you re-playing forever, and one that anyone has played often enough to have become indifferent too.
Now re-invent it so that it’s exciting again. What context could you add to it that would make it entertaining, and repayable at the level that tic-tac-toe with a machine would demand of you?
The Gatekeeper is the result.
And yes, it’s possible. You can win.
(Game) Totally loving the low-fi look. The visual fixes look awesome on the phone.
Artist Ed Fairburn does awesome things with maps.
The top two images are from his North America Series. They’re pencil drawings on climate charts of North America.
“The angled perspectives have been plotted to compliment the sweeping shape of North America,” he states, “the variations between the colors of Part I and Part II were a conscious decision; the warmer colors reflect a passionate pose while the colder blues suggest a more sombre mood.”
The second and third pieces were created in collaboration with Bobbie-Jo, Ed Fairburn’s partner and printmaker. The second is part of the Western Front Cutout Series and the third is entitled Stafford Lane. Both are ink drawings on old military maps that were then cut and layered over the more colourful North American climate charts.

98 year old dobri dobrev, a man who lost his hearing in the second world war, walks 10 kilometers from his village in his homemade clothes and leather shoes to the city of sofia, where he spends the day begging for money.
though a well known fixture around several of the city’s chruches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that he has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros — towards the restoration of decaying bulgarian monasteries and churches and the utility bills of orphanages, living instead off his monthly state pension of 80 euros.
there’s still good in this world

So now I’m putting Offender 2 on hold for a bit and porting The Gatekeeper to iOS. It’s a fun game, and people enjoy it a lot. Because it’s simple it should go pretty fast…
