Crazy’s Adventure: Webby41

It’s that time of year again. I made a trip to the UK to meet one of my Xbox friends for the first time. This trip was to meet my eldest friend, 70 years old, Webby41.

I knew Webby online through his son-in-law; Whom I met on last year’s Xbox friend meet up tour.

I met Webby in the South of London on the Isle of Dogs.

Webby took me on a tour of his old stomping grounds in London. It was hilarious recording the old man shouting at cabs.

We went to his favorite Pie & Mash shoppe. Beef Pie covered in parsley sauce.

Then it was off to the Greenwich Time Museum.

Can’t be ice cream on a hot July day.

With a stunning view of London.

Road trip Webby’s house to the Eastern most town in the UK.

Mr. & Mrs. Webby were such amazing host.

The Breakdown

It’s hard to describe an RTS that takes cues from games like Lemmings and Smash TV and that also visually pays homage to old school vector graphics in a single sentence; so let’s use just a single word. Awesome!

The Important Stuff

Back in 2006 Introversion Software won a few prestigious awards at the Independant Games Festival, including the Seumas McNally Grand Prize, for their PC title Darwinia.
