PowerPill @ Pecha Kucha

We Get These.. Power Pills To Swallow

Simply put, Fez is one of our most anticipated games here at DLCpunk.  On a seemingly unrelated note, Aquaria is one of the most beautifully crafted gaming experiences anyone can muster.

What these two statements have in common is the upcoming Pecha Kucha in Montreal will see members of both teams detailing their new collaborative effort 'Power Pill'.  Phil Fish (Polytron; lead designer & final boss) and Alec Holowka (Infinite Ammo; game designer, programmer on Aquaria) will have a brief encounter with the stage as they're granted 6 minutes and 40 seconds to detail their upcoming iPhone game with 20 potential images accompanying them.  Details about 'Power Pill' are currently limited to just the title and some privledged art, but Fish and Holowka are two of the most imaginative minds of the independent scene; their foray into iPhone development will hopefully lead to a new school of thought surrounding iPhone game design.

Pecha Kucha will take place this upcoming Wednesday, September 30.  We'll be providing details as they're revealed, so sit tight.
