Ron Carmel, co-creator of the highly successful WiiWare and PC title World of Goo, has made a WarioWare D.I.Y. microgame. Suck Goo might be simplistic (even by WarioWare standards) but that's exactly the sort of game I can see myself making. A simple one, I mean, not one where Goo gets sucked into a pipe. That's just weird.

This video was a really good idea. I knew the microgame building tools would have to be simple but I didn't expect it to be as easy as some of this. The maestro in particular looks to be a helpful little guy for those of us who have no gift for music whatsoever.

WarioWare D.I.Y. is such an interesting concept that I wish it were on a platform that wasn't mortified of online spaces. One where the service could have content from everyone that you could browse through, even if there were some kind of approval process or something. But you can at least get Suck Goo. It's available right now through WarioWare D.I.Y.

I made a game of a dude surfing the 'net' (i.e. a command prompt that has a virus) yesterday on Warioware D.I.Y.

It took me about an hour and its pretty cool.

Unfortunately stupid Comcast decided to make my connection WPA rather than WEP so I can't upload it through the D.S.

I'm wondering if I'll be able to upload it to the Wii and then do it through there, instead...I'll have to look into that when I get a chance to get the Wiiware showcase title...

Am I the only one that think that the name "suck goo" has another dark meaning?

I think I'll go download the WiiWare game when all these indie devs put up their microgames.

This pretty much cements the idea that I'll never be a game designer.
