The Spammers, depicted accurately as green alien zombies, must win. It is your job to make sure that they do.<br \/>\nThe game reflects the nets randomness, and cultural taboos, in as much of a musical sense as it does artistically. The outcome is absurd, and somewhat violating.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/nathalielawhead.com\/noodles\/IMG_iPhone_Tutorial-small.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/nathalielawhead.com\/press\/IMG_iPhone_Tutorial.png\" target=\"_blank\">Click here for high-res<\/a>.<br \/>\nThe instructions for the mobile game.

I get to laugh at my own jokes! Again! When you lose the game (or give up) you are greeted with a printing press, and one of these random newspapers comes flying at you presenting you with the consequences of your failure.<br \/>\nThere are lots of little extras in the game.<\/p>\n<p>As I work on porting it, I\u2019m also making animated gif&#8217;s of some of the animations. I eventually want to make a gallery of .gif artwork from Tetrageddon Games.
