Parabole: The Interview

This month’s game - Kona - is one of those games that manages to be more than the sum of its parts. It commands an atmosphere; a sense of self unique to itself. Understanding how Parabole achieved this is one of the questions we threw to Alexandre Fiset - the CEO and Co-Founder of Parabole.

2024. A Year in Review

Salutations! As the dust settles on another year, I thought it’d be nice to take a stroll backwards through the mists of time, and reflect on the year that was. Grab yourself a nice tea, coffee, or mulled wine - why not, I’ve got one, nobody’s watching - and let’s review the year in the rear view mirror…

Pantaloon’s game for December is Kona

Another month, another game for you. Our last of the year, in fact. And as it's December we're getting into the spirit of Winter and giving you Kona; a chilly interactive tale set in Northern Canada in 1970. Brrrr.

Sokpop Collective: The Interview

Sokpop, I would argue, are one of the most interesting development outfits in the indie space. Not only is their catalogue of games vibrant and deliciously odd, but their approach to the business of games is also bold and refreshing, too. These are some of the topics we dig into in our interview with the lads.

Four Last Things: The Interview

Here’s our interview with the man himself.

Announcing Puzzletrunk

When we started Pantaloon, we had no idea our puzzles would be as popular as they are today. But the constraints of the web/password format were becoming limiting, which was a problem we set out to solve.  

And so we've been and gone and made Puzzletrunk; the first original Pantaloon game!

Outshine: The Interview

Outshine was immediately interesting to Pantaloon. While it’s not necessarily weird, it is such a bold take on a Typing game, and takes the genre in a very visceral and unexpected direction. As part of our partnership with the game, we chucked a few questions to Bruno Urbain, CEO of Fishing Cactus, the game’s Belgium-based developer.

Supermarket Times: The Interview

Supermarket Times is delightfully odd. A point-and-click supermarket-simulator with a distinctly British flavour, that manages to be surreal and comical in equal measure. Pantaloon found some time to pick the brains of Joel Winsor, the solo-developer behind the game, and source of all subsequent absurdity.

Pantaloon’s game for July is: Supermarket Times

We've really upped the bizarre factor this month, partnering with Rabbit Hole Games for the most absurd game you've seen from Pantaloon so far.

Supermarket Times is an Adventure game (if classical genre classification can even be applied here) putting you in the shoes of a normal shopper, in a very normal supermarket...
