Thyroid Posted May 21, 2011 Sounds 8-bit and edgy. Love the name. Much better than "Zombie Cow" . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted May 21, 2011 you're playing Broken Sword? oh, you mean the rename to Size Five Games. Read about that on gamasutra ages ago: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/34763/Time_Gentlemen_Please_Dev_Takes_A_Risk_With_Name_Change.php What's in a name. Is size 5 better than zombie cow? I don't know. To be honest, there are not a lot of great game studio names. One of the most interesting names I've seen is "Mauretania Import Export Company".

toblix Posted May 21, 2011 I noticed Dan tweeting it, and completely love your new site. I also posted a comment on your site, and due to some technical difficulties it disappeared after a short while. As for the "fifth size of game" thing, it seems almost like I'm supposed to know what it means, but also almost like it ironically means nothing. Maybe that's what you were going for? You should know that changing your name does not free you from your obligation to make another hilarious point and click adventure game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brkl Posted May 21, 2011 You should make a game maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K-bohls! Posted May 22, 2011 I am pleased by that giant robot. I am not pleased by the lack of a Mexican with a balloon-head. Though I understand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted May 22, 2011 I wanted to post something snarky a couple of days ago, but then I felt bad because I haven't played any of your games, even though I keep meaning to. PS The site is not loading for me for some reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patters Posted May 22, 2011 Why do games companies have a massive love of using the number five: Factor 5, Level 5, 505 games, 5th cell? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted May 22, 2011 it's because game studio owners can only count to 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DanJW Posted May 22, 2011 it's because game studio owners can only count to 5 The should use both hands! Nice website BBX. My only constructive criticism would be that on first glance I expected the shop section to be a place to get the games, rather than a merch shop. It's only a moment's click, but I am easily confused and all that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben X Posted May 22, 2011 Well, Dan's new game won't be an adventure but will be awesome. Don't know if I'll be involved (if I am, it'll probably be minor unpaid design work or level design). I'd also love to do another Dan and Ben adventure game, but it'd have to be something really different and special for us to bother. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nachimir Posted May 25, 2011 Happy birthday Ben! I notice Dan renamed the studio just after Mike Rose's "250 indie games you must play" got published, with Zombie Cow games in there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
