A Pictogame Adapted in Live 3D at La Lucha Libre

To celebrate the grand opening of La Lucha Libre, I invite you to read Chloe's post on the matter:

"Last week our sales director, David Thomas, launched his restaurant, La Lucha Libre, which is located at the heart of Paris. For the occasion, the entire firm was invited to have a meal there (see all the pictures on Facebook).

After kilos of nachos swallowed and other Spanish specialties, we were asked to get off in the cellar... and fight each other in wrestling matches!

The fights were painful and unkind. Litres of sweat were burned to try to become the number 1 of the game.

So we wanted to share with you some of these amazing fights through our Pictogame Arm Fight! Will you be the winner? Let's fight!"

Atari Vintage Look Collection

I want to share with you today a post written by Chloe, a colleague who works on our Flash Games platform, Pictogame.

"Simple gaming, simple fun and most of all, simple packaging applied to the games of today?

A lot of gamers today miss the sheer simplicity of the Atari 2600 games... and The -Minus World knows it. That's why they take an interesting look at how today's games might have been represented by yesterday's artists with Atari Modern Classics.

Thereby the biggest games of the moment fell into the hands of a 2600-era artist. They've created retro covers in authentic pixels and simple block graphics for Halo 3, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Portal, Resident Evil 5, GTA IV, No More Heroes, COD4, God of War 3, and BioShock. All the biggest games have been represented.

Uncluttered composition and short descriptive text come together to create a simple and vintage game packaging.

You can check out on the joined pictures what today’s game packaging look like with Atari Modern Classics."

What's New In Line Driver?

This is a post made by Jérémie in the Line Driver Blog and which i wanted to share with you.

Hi, I am one of the people working on Line Driver behind the scene....the coder.
I wanted to expose some of the improvements achieved on the last version, but for those not too fond of technical aspects, you may jump straight to the second part of the post which is a challenge I sent, based on a meccano-like track.

While coding these improvements, I have focused my efforts on optimizations and gameplay, trying to squeeze every single byte, frame per second, or CPU cycle and to offer the best gaming experience even on older computers. The first round of optimization had led to a very significant framerate increase, but unfortunately the bitmap rasterization method we used increased memory occupation as well, especially on very large tracks.

That's why we are back with a lighter version, with slightly retuned cars, more forgiving lawn, and wider tracks for a more pleasant drive. Keep on checking pictogame and the line driver official blog because there's more improvements to come, but now it's time to let the timer speak : are you a real pilot or just another Sunday driver ?

Note : this track is really hard.

Try new Circuits on Line Driver

This Monday was a special day for Line Driver. Indeed we sent the game press release to bloggers and specialized press.

To celebrate the event, Corentin created some tracks available on the Line Driver blog. Take a tour, you will certainly find a circuit that will suit you.

We previously told you about the Challenge mode and we are proud to see that it's having a pretty good success. A lot of Pictogamers are coming from everywhere to challenge their friends on customized tracks.

So, what are you waiting for to join this community :-)?

               

Pictogame Caws on the "Corbeau déchaîné"

The functions of Pictogame have been put to good use by the CroaCroa Inc. Games Division which recently published its last creations of relaxing games on the "Corbeau déchaîné" by featuring French and International communist figures (such as Marx). So you too can let off steam on any anti-capitalist star you want.

Lacking inspiration? Then have a look at the games already created about Sarkozy, Le Pen, D'Elia, Obama, Bush, etc, to which you can subscribe directly (for example Sarkozy) or subscribe to the RSS feeds of the last entries in order to stay informed about the latest creations.

You can also choose a theme with a URL like these

• http://www.pictogame.com/en/games/tag/britney
• And for the RSS feeds: http://www.pictogame.com/en/feeds/tag/britney

Indeed Pictogame enables you to customize numerous games in just a few mouse clicks in order to relax and have fun altogether. So let your humorous side take over and get on the train of free and entirely customizable games.

So if like the blogger Maître Corbeau you have created a game on the Pictogame platform and have published it on your blog, let us know in the comments so that everybody can enjoy it.

A New Track Editor for Line Driver

Today I'd like to present the new functionalities of the latest Line Driver track editor. Our concern was at the same time to improve the creative experience and keep the ease of use of the tool.

As you can see, seven icons were added on the left side of the drawing tool. Let's see what we can do with them:

• Pencil tool Click to add a point, click and drag to move a point, double click on a point to remove it.
• Hand tool: The Hand tool is very useful to create large tracks. Select it or just hold the space bar and drag the set to move it.
• Zoom in/out: It allows to be very precise when you want to tune your track. We also add the start lane and the car on the first stretch of the track.
  
• Enlarge/narrow track: Change the width of the road to create easy or more difficult racetracks.
• Trash tool: To delete a track and start a new one from scratch.

It's now possible to create very long and complicated racetracks, and why not, tracks inspired by real circuits. Here's an example of an "ultra-complicated" track I've created.

If you want to challenge me on this track just follow the link :)

Welcome to Corentin Julius!

It's a great pleasure to welcome a new blog author. And he's special. Let me introduce Corentin Julius, aka Corentin Raux.

He's written a few blog posts here already about his creations at the head of Pictogame, so I said go ahead man, post directly under your own name, fine with me. So here we go, there's 3 of us VIPeers on the blog now, and counting...

Challenge your friends on Line Driver!

Corentin has written a new post on Line Driver's blog, so here it is :

Among the new functionalities we have recently implemented on Line Driver, the challenge might be the most important one in terms of gameplay and virality. It's now possible to challenge your friends with your best lap time by sending them an email directly from the game. So they can race against your best ghost car, beat you and challenge you in return. For this purpose we now have to save every challenger ghost car on our servers and we made it possible to embed a game with a challenge on a blog. According to me the experience is really fun fun but we can do even better. We're going to improve it within a few days by adding the name of the challenger over the ghost car and messages from the anchorman to prompt you to beat your challenger. I hope the challenge will help to boost the virality of our Line Driver! For those who want to challenge me, you can try to beat my best lap time on this race inspired by a Mario Kart SNES track. Have fun!

Line Driver, why?

I'm publishing a post made by Corentin, Creator of Line Driver, for the game's blog. You can visit it and post your encouragement if you're also fans of this awesome racing game.

First of all I'm a HUGE fan of the arcade classic hit Super Sprint. My friends and I used to spend nights driving these tiny vehicles, fighting for the precious wrenches! I never found any flash car game as addictive as Super Sprint and we wanted to make one with Line driver.

The second source of inspiration is of course Line Rider. According to me, one of the key for the success of Line Rider lies in its ease of use. Draw a line and press play, that's all you have to do to enjoy yourself. We wanted the Line Driver drawing tool to be as simple as that : draw your track and race!

Briefly speaking, with Line Driver we would like to offer an experience at the same time simple, creative and fun. I Hope we'll make it :)
