A Journey review

My review of Journey is just this:

' It made me re-experience my whole life in just 2 hours... '

 Birth, the innocence and joy, youth, trials of life , the impending inevitable loss of body and beyond ! I am sure everyone must have had a different experience with Journey, to me, somehow it reminded me of my whole life in 2 hours ! Without any events in the game, or minimal events, lets say, it managed to make me feel every emotion or feeling I have had since childhood to now and how I feel of the life ahead ! The feeling I had at the end really felt that I have just been through my whole life and I just knew at the end that there will be nothing at the end of the light but a rebirth, it is life. But there was no expectations and no frustrations at that point ! The feeling of getting satisfied or being in a state where achievements don't matter before reaching the end, the feeling of having accomplished something without getting a reward, is exceptionally difficult to be conveyed to someone. Journey did that to me . This is something I have felt only when I meditate regularly, but a game ,an experience did this to me......is just exceptional ! Jenova Chen knows what he is doing too well. For me, it is ....life encapsulated in 2 hours !

It is just ........needs to be played and played in one sitting ! I hope everyone has a unique experience of it !

Beautiful, blissful and sublime ! 

For the first time since "Shadow of The Colossus" I have felt so mesmerized by a game ! Very short but exceptional ! Not just aesthetically, but even technically the game is marvel. I won't spoil anything for you, just play it and feel good...it has made me proud to be a part of this gaming culture again ! :)

Christmas Magic + spreads its wings: An iPad exclusive for now !

 Hi guys ! How are the holidays going? Did u guys get time to game a lot ? :)

                 In CM+ news, the winning streak of Christmas Magic + continues with number of downloads increasing each day and the buzz around the game getting more electric as each holiday passes. We are even getting requests to translate the game into Chinese and a few European languages. Also, as the trailer is spreading over the internet and being hosted on multiple channels, we are getting requests from all over the world to port the game over to PC, Mac, iPhones and Android devices. Though we can't promise an alternate version right now, technically we can port the game over to Chrome store, thus covering Mac ,PC and Linux in one go, and we can port it to some Android tablets. But, that will require funds and if we earn enough from the iPad version, we can do it. Phone versions will not be possible as the game's puzzles require a larger screen. So, in that regard, the game cannot be brought to iPhones and remains an iPad exclusive for this Holiday season.

  Our advice to people who haven't got an iPad and want to play Christmas Magic +:

Find a friend or family member with an iPad and spread the xmas cheer together as the game is best enjoyed together !

OR

Go grab an iPad Mini ! It is cheaper, smaller and yet as productive, useful and flashy as its bigger brothers.

       Thats all for today ! Go get them fingers tapping and spread some "Christmas Magic" among you friends and family ! :)

Christmas Magic + is shining bright on the Appstore !

Christmas Magic + , our little baby on the Appstore, is climbing strongly on the ladders of the AppStore ! We are getting steady downloads of around 500 per day (ain't that su-weet !) and steadily climbing. Also, its interesting to see the game performing equally well in non-english speaknig countries too, eg. China seems to like our game as much as the US, which is a surprise to us considering that a major chunk of the game is a storybook in English !

Add to that we have been recieving encouraging reviews and fan mails too.With the festive season in the air and Christmas cheer all around, we are getting messages from fans proclaiming the game as

"The Best Christmas Gift !"

Needless to say, we are feeling very proud of our game these days :) ! Hoping and praying it conquers more milestones as each day passes. More news and surprises will be out soon before the new year arrives !

Happy Holidays, everyone !
