Simogo thanks its fans with free The Sensational December Machine desktop game
Yesterday, Simogo tweeted that something called The Sensational December Machine was “coming (very) soon.” Now, the developer behind a number of acclaimed iOS games including Kosmo Spin, Bumpy Road, and Beat Sneak Bandit has released that something, which turns out to be a desktop game.
The Sensational December Machine is presented by Simogo as its little holiday thank-you gift to its fans.
As it shares in a new blog post, Simogo did some looking back as the year drew to a close and found that its fans had always given “so much support and kindness.” In return, it spent three weeks to create something it could gift its fans.
The result: The Sensational December Machine, which, true to Simogo’s penchant for multimedia storytelling, is an interactive story told through an engaging mixture of art, text, and music:
A short interactive story about an inventor and her unusual new creation. It features hand-drawn art and text, and dynamic music (which evolves with the story) by Daniel Olsén. We hope you’ll snuggle up with this little seasonal, and very three-dimensional, tale in fullscreen mode. Perhaps with some good headphones, and a warm drink by your side.
This year saw the release of Simogo’s latest iOS game, The Sailor’s Dream, the concluding installment in Simogo’s loose trilogy of narrative puzzle games, which also includes Year Walk and Device 6.
