[Podcast] Ep 94: GDC and the Mac; Firefly Night; Mystery of the Crystal Portal
What’s inside this episode:
- An interview with Jared Steffes and David Ballard of Tap Me Games about iComplishments, a new social game advertising platform for mobile systems, and available now for the iPhone. iComplishments integrates advertising in new ways into gameplay, including achievements, powerups, even contests. Wait till you hear some of the ideas we had for that Tiger Woods iPhone game!
-
A review of Firefly Night by Frozen Giant. Remember those warm summer evenings and capturing fireflies? Now you can collect them with your iPhone, and collect points too.

-
Plus, a review of Mystery of the Crystal Portal by G5 Entertainment. A reinvention of the Hidden Object genre, this game seemlessly merges storyline and puzzle gameplay elements to make an interactive movie. Well, a turn-based one, anyway.

Show Notes:
- How many games for the Mac have been announced the past few weeks?? How many companies are now suddenly interested in supporting the Mac? WTF happened, people?!
- Valve. It’s them. They started it all. Omaha will talk about what might be Valve’s reason for drinking the Kool-aid, and where things might be heading.
Music Notes:
- Digital Droo featured music from Burning Monkey Solitaire.
- Rich Carlson featured music from Dr. Blob’s Organism.
- Digital Droo produced our theme music here at iGame Radio.
