Playable AAAAaaAAAaaaalpha Test Now Available


inconveniently named game [http://www.dejobaan.com/] in the history of the industry.

The alpha test features eight levels of virtual skyscrapers for players to leap from and sail past in a surreal base jumping simulation. Players will rack up points as they negotiate obstacles and hit targets on the way down, with bonuses awarded for such things as hugging buildings, landing in target zones and not breaking every bone in your fool body when you go splat on the pavement.

I've played through several of the levels and it's actually quite a bit of fun, albeit very simple and not the sort of thing that's going to eat up your day. Failure, which is to say the aforementioned splat, isn't as "impactful" as it could be, but as the game itself notes this is an "ugly alpha test," playable but lacking in many features.

The full version of AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! - A Reckless Disregard for Gravity is slated for release later in 2009 for the PC. More information and a link to download the 120 megabyte test release can be found at dejobaan.com/aaaa [http://www.dejobaan.com/aaaaa/].

It'll be fun to hear people ask for this at the counter of a games retailer.

"Is my copy of AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! in yet?"
You have to say it loudly as it's got exclamation points on the end.

Be sure to go in every week and ask just in case they got it delivered early.

Bonus points if you do it while shrieking like the vampires in 30 Days Of Night. As opposed to contrary opinion, you will not get in trouble for this; rather, the salespeople will most likely take pity on you as a hapless victim of the vampires, and may even hide you in the closet and feed you steak every other month. Good luck!

Sounds kind of clever, a la Portal. Of course that's setting the bar really high.

How do you pronounce the title, exactly?

Well, it could be the next Rez. I'll check it out now.

It sounds like an okay concept, in terms of gameplay, but the name just sounds like they couldn't decide what to call it, and asked a four year old to do it for them.

Ok, I'm definately NOT going to be able to remember where to have a capital A, and where to have a lower case one.
