P.S. Did you buy Classic Galcon or Galcon Flash? Thanks! You are awesome, and because you are awesome, your purchase of those games count as pre-orders of Galcon Fusion! That’s right – you already own the game! Get in there and play it!
P.S.S. Want to help me out? Spread the word! Play the game! That’ll make my day
Introducing Galcon Fusion, the long-awaited update to desktop Galcon! Now with improved HD graphics, a full soundtrack, and a variety of exciting new multi-player modes! Galcon Fusion is set to launch February 11 on Steam and on our website for PC / Mac / Linux.
Our gift to you: A totally FREE iPhone game! I made this game several years ago with some other way-cool game-dev friends. In “Elephants!” you save the giraffes while jumping on a rolled up squirrel! More fun than a barrel of pigeons! For Christmas this year I figured I’d port it over to the iPhone for you Check it out!
Really, with 4 totally new single and multi-player missions, it’s a pretty kickin’ time I’ll be playing a good deal the next few days, so I hope to see you on the games!
There’s not a whole lot to say, since all you have to do is click on it to play it NOW! Really, Galcon is an amazing Realtime multi-player game .. IN FLASH! With 100’s of servers, we’re ready to expand to 1000’s of simultaneous users playing the game! The game allows for anonymous non-paying users to play the game, so it should be great for n00b stomping. (All n00bs get the name “n00b-23432″ or something like that.)
Anyway, have a blast playing it! Also, buying Galcon and Flash Galcon is the same thing .. I dropped the price to 7.95 for the launch of this, since Galcon has been out for almost 3 years now. Hopefully this will also kick some more life into the Classic Galcon community again!
“The end of the world is nigh! Defend the world from the onslaught of an unfeeling universe!
“In Cosmic Nitro you must blast through nine different invasions. To play merely touch the invaders to blast them, but when things get too tough you can swipe the screen to launch a shield.
“Designed by award winning game designer Phil Hassey winner of the IGFM Innovation in Game Design award.”
So check it out, the game is only 0.99 and totally worth every penny! Be sure to tell your friends about it!
Cheers!

P.S. I just submitted an update to Galcon to the App Store .. so keep an eye out for that in the next week or so! :)
Hey! We got a new game for you to check out! It’s called Beast! Beast is a really cool re-make of an old MS-DOS text-mode game that I used to really like. (It’s similar to Galcon in that sense.) It also has a slick retro-graphics feel to it that I’m pretty happy with.
One of the most fun things I added into the game was the beast images. They are based on creations by the Bungled Jungle which is located in Salida, CO. This store sells amazing monsters that they create in their studio. If you haven’t seen their stuff before, be sure to check it out. Tell ‘em “Phil Hassey” sent ya
P.S. If you are a software developer, or are interested in knowing more about the design decisions that went into this game, check out my dev blog.
I’ve just created a couple twitter accounts for myself!
philhassey is going to be my dev twitter account, where I might be posting real-time stuff about game-dev, python, and whatever else comes up. Should be interesting if I get into it
galcon is my twitter account for news about Galcon, galcon.com, new games, and other swell goodies!
P.S. Galcon for the iphone is an IGF Mobile finalist! Check it out!
Hey folks! There’s an exciting update to the web-game I put together a couple weeks ago. “The Maze of MADNESS” is a “point-and-click text adventure game” .. Where you get to create the game! It must be seen to be believed. You can even create your own new adventures! So far people have created over 400 rooms! A few days ago I upgraded it to v2.0, meaning now you can start your OWN mazes! There are already several new cool mazes being built.
While I’m at it, the holiday season is upon us! So for the end of this week, I’m going to put Classic Desktop Galcon on Sale for 50% off regular price! You can buy it at that price by using the promo code “TURKEY” when you checkout. (And remember — you save even more if you buy in BULK!)
Also, just to give you the heads up I’ve finally gotten myself onto a real mailing list service (The thing I was using before just wasn’t cutting it!) This is much more convenient, and I don’t have to sit around sweating hoping that all the e-mails are being sent properly anymore. If you aren’t on the mailing list, now would be a prime time to join. Just create a user account, select “Yes, send me e-mail updates” and confirm your account. Or if you already have an account just click Edit Profile on the top right corner and then Newsletter Preferences.
Hey, I’ve just put up “The Maze of MADNESS” which is a free web-based create-your-own adventure game. Check it out! You get to create your own rooms and items and add all sorts of things to the game
