Glorious Trainwrecks

Glorious Trainwrecks is a website devoted to B-Games, and its users submitted the infinitely awesome 100-in-1 Klik & Play Pirate Kart to our B-Game Competition. In the words of Six, one of the site’s contributors:

We’ve been holding a monthly two-hour game jam, the Klik of the Month Klub, which is always a blast; members have also been making games outside of that context on a regular basis. The weird thing is, even though the site was created to pay tribute to wonderful terrible games, somewhere along the line our focus seems to have subtly shifted to just encouraging people to produce stuff – good, bad, whatever.

I like the idea of using Klik n’ Play to explore game making in such a free way! And some of the results are quite interesting, such as Xmas ADVENTure, an action/puzzle game that is being released one screen at a time until Christmas, or this one-switch platform demo. (One-switch games are games that only require a single button to play, and are more accessible to people with certain disabilities.)
