Hit or NotTwo Levels of Indirection from Actual Taste | Submitted by costik on Thu, 02/04/2010 - 00:01. |
Hit or Not is a social network game on Facebook. It works like this: You listen to a clip of music from a band, and rate it. You lose or score points by how close your rating is to the average rating of other users. If you like, you can "sign" the band (the fantasy being that you're running a label), and if the band "does well" (rises in ranking) you gain additional game money. You can also "sell" acts you have "bought" for a one-time gain, a "predictions market" effect.
James Silva could be the Quentin Tarentino of videogames. I can't remember right now, but I've probably laid that on a few other developers. Forget about that, this guy is it. He's coming out with The Dishwasher for XBLA later this year, after having won a contest where Microsoft deigns to work with you. He's a one man army, and while Dish looks pretty tight, Survival Crisis Z is a long-buried classic.
