The Fabulous Screech

Your partner has bought you ticket for the season’s last performance by The Fabulous Screech and His Trained Humans, so you travel to Oddness Standing to see this unique show…

[Note: this is a downloadable version of the original Flash game.]

The history of this game:

This very short game has a peculiar background. A few months ago I was approached by someone called Angie to create a present for her boyfriend, Matt. Money being short, this was to be a combined Christmas, Valentine’s Day and anniversary present. He was a fan of my games, especially the ones set in the Lands of Dream, so this could be a really special gift for him. Now, this isn’t how I normally work, and there were other things I was supposed to be working on, but how can you say no to being part of something so sweet? So I said yes.

I thought a bit about what sort of game to make, until eventually it became clear to me that I needed to go back to Oddness Standing, the setting of The Book of Living Magic, and make a game about one of the most memorable characters from that town. Strangely enough, it probably ended up being the most personal game I’ve ever made.
