urbantactics.jpgThe (I think) foolishly named ToJam (Toronoto indie games jam) has finally put up the last of its entried, several of which are very interesting (they also updated the website, which has a bit of a game going on there itself). I can't admit to have tried all of them, but here are the ones that intrigued me - Urban Tactics is a browser game with zombies that you sing to destroy. And you ultimately always lose. Pretty great idea. Next there's Mohawk Warrior, which is an XNA game, playable on the 360 if you have the software, but also on PC. Kind of a fightingish game, but requires two players, which is always kind of a mistake (but easier in terms of AI, that's for sure!). The last game I want to highlight is YharrgH!, a DS game that has you touching pirates to get them off your ship. Reminds me of Touchdown, which I actually finally played, and is a bit slow. There are lots more to see though, so check them out here.
