Way back in October there was a joke at the end of an ENN episode [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/escapist-news-network/2222-The-EA-Louse-Friends] about a game called "Edgey McEdgerson's Hedge Edger."

Long story short: I thought it was hilarious and decided to make a game out of it, so here it is:

It's... actually not bad. It'd be nice if you could throw up something to track how high you get in the corner, but otherwise fairly fun. Nice job.

Edit: Nevermind, turns out there's an option for that...

Thanks, unfortunately I had to give up on a lot of stuff that would probably have made it better. The size of the game started getting out of control and I realized that if I didn't make things simple it would never get done. It was very instructive on how much effort goes into even simple games.

Pretty darn good Canabalt-esque game, I must say.

Just prepare for the massive lawsuit from that dips**t who trademarked 'Edge'.

You mean the one who got legally bitchslapped and had his trademarks (and possibly entire company) cancelled?

Ha and Tim Langdell can't do dick about it since he lost all his trademarks. The sound track is pretty good too.

That's actually really good. Similar to Robot Unicorn. Needs a little more pazazz and detail, but that's as good as a lot of the games there.

Can't get the good ending. Go way too fast, and the hedges always end up so damn short I land, and then fall literally instantaneously, or overshoot them becasue I full jumped.

Still been playing it for about 15 minutes, though, and I plan on continuing, so it's really fun, just aggrivating (so the Robot Unicorn Attack comparison that someone else made is very apt).
