Recently Offworld has gone crafty with new guest blogger Tiff Chow digging up LucasArts inspired amigurumi for both Day of the Tentacle and Sam & Max, which also led us to home-stitched LittleBigPlanet Sack-people based on Space Channel 5 and 60s cereal mascot Fruit Brute (!), and Anna the Red debuts her most adorable bento yet making The Behemoth's Castle Crashers fully edible. We've also gone arty with Hellen Jo and Calvin Wong's faux-NES-manuals for their recent Giant Robot art show game, Ben Ross's delightful Yeti Knight adventure game tumblr, and an LA exhibition opening Saturday with 40 designers and illustrators showing Street Fighter inspired art. We also listened to (and downloaded sheet music for) the entirety of World of Goo's original soundtrack for solo piano and a chiptune sampler EP for an Ubuntu Linux release party. And we saw an attempt to bring CRT imperfections back into razor sharp Atari 2600 emulation, heard about the playful destruction coming to the newly announced Lego Rock Band, saw PopCap favorite Peggle officially integrated into World of Warcraft, and finally, played Effing Hail, a new indie browser game that makes a game of cleanly illustrated textbook infographics (pictured).

Just trying to live a wild, pure, simple life.
