Mario Docker: Beta Testers Needed
Posted by Pat Logsdon in "SOFTWARE" @ 05:00 AM
Here's what I get from the 30 second video posted on the Ballshooter site. You play a dockworker (named Mario, presumably), who is being maliciously attacked by evil stevedores, who seem to gain a sick kind of pleasure from their attempts to crush the happy-go-lucky, cigarette-smoking Mario with shipping containers. Mario has to drop the shipping containers into holding areas below him before he gets crushed by them. Too many shipping containers results in Mario being transformed into what I like to call a "Jesus Cube", which consists of a highly compacted Mario with a cross embedded in his forehead. Ballshooter will be releasing a demo shortly, and is currently accepting beta testers. If you're interested, visit their site and drop them a line.
