This week’s Flash Game Friday winner is Go Go Gummo by Splashworks! I actually completely agree with the developer’s description on this one: Go Go Gummo – Down In The Dumps is a fun, action-puzzle platformer that will have you immersed in a world where you can swing, sling, fling, float and roll your way through trashy levels of sticky-flicky, gummy fun – with Gummo the wad of gum.” Gummo is this little wad of

A lot of us gamers have a soft spot for isometric adventure games.

Fishing Girl, from LunaDrift, is a simple game built around a simple mechanic that brings decidedly non-simple amounts of fun. Fishing Girl is all about choosing a lure, casting your line, and seeing what you can reel in. Not in a boring, realistic sort of way, but in a creative cartoonish kind of way! Fish are worth points, the larger the more valuable, and you can use those points to buy upgraded items at the
