MADRIS Demo Now Available

July 8th, 2010

There’s a great competition running on TIGSource.com. It’s themed around building games that are inspired by fake-game coverart. MADRIS is the title of Sugar Pill Studios submission for this contest. It’s like tetris with rooms instead of tetraminos, and the rooms need to be connected via doorways to allow little sims passage to particular rooms. The contest runs until the end of the month, but the first playable demo of MADRIS was made public today. Details along with the download can be found here.
