It’s Monday. We love it, we hate it, sometimes we argue and sometimes we make out (don’t tell Tuesday). What better way to break in the week than to have a little fun with some flash games?

Each Monday, one flash game will be put up on the PULPit for play. The poster will briefly describe the game and post a link (possibly embed it directly into the post) to play. It’s then out job to decide whether or not it passes muster using a simple yet effective review system. If you wish to partake in the PULPit, please use the following format to review the game. Other random comments are more than welcomed, but if you’re making an official review keep that as it’s own comment for the sake of organization.

PULPit Review Template:

Commentary:
Describe your thoughts and feelings on the game. It can be as basic as “Worse than crack, I loved it!” or as in-depth as describing the pros and cons of the gameplay mechanics & artistic style. The level of juiciness is up to you.

Difficulty:
5 – Insanely Hard
4 – Very Challenging
3 – Slightly Challenging
2 – Easy
1 – Boring, Grandma Beat It

Rating:
5 – Exquisite game. Amazing in every sense of the word
4 – Fantastic game. It’s missing something (better art, too short/long)
3 – Average game. Your run of the mill flash game, fun but leaves you wanting more
2 – Poor game. Bad quality on several aspects of the game, maybe one redeeming quality
1 – Abysmal game. I could have been looking at pictures of cats with funny captions instead of playing this.

So that’s it! I hope this stays strong, I think we can have a lot of fun with something like this. One last thing: I feel like we should figure out who the next person to post a game should be beforehand, unless you feel first come first serve when Monday rolls around works for everyone.

The game I chose to put up on the PULPit is called Bubble Tanks 2. I’ve never played Bubble Tanks 1, but from the description on the website, the guy who made it took a lot of ideas from the comments on the first game and made this one a lot better. The game is fairly basic. It’s a shooter located in a body of water where you control a tank made of bubbles. The object of the game is to roam around from one giant bubble (or room) to the next and shoot down enemies comprised of bubbles. When you take out an enemy, they leave several bubbles on the level for you to absorb into your own tank. As you absorb these bubbles, you work your way towards upgrades for your weapons and abilities. The enemies get progressively more difficult the further away you get from the starting bubble. Enjoy!
