Hillbilly Organ Grinder Arcade Fun (demo out now!)

Jun 3 2012 News 1 comment

If it was any more addicting, the "gumment" would put a warning label on it.

Hillbilly Organ Grinder (HOG) is a shoot-em'-dead arcade game that, for some reason, makes you want to play one more go. Maybe it's the online leader board or maybe its just the hillbilly themed, comedic presentation. If shooting stuff and watching it *POP* is your kind of thing, well, give the demo a try (it's as free as one-legged turkey (maybe slightly free-er).

For all you intellectuals out there, HOG is the story of an Appalachian Organ Grinder, which is a man who plays a musical instrument popular in the early 1900s. By cranking a lever, music is automatically played via a series of organ pipes. A skilled Grinder could play for hours, drawing crowds of 10, even 15 people. Primarily used as a tool for entertainment, our hillbilly hero uses it to save his farm. Grinding is what he knows, and he knows how to grind it hard.

Eddy's farm is threatened by a wormhole, which is hurling all sorts of junk down on his farm. Well, Eddy the hero of the story, knows "nuttin' bout' nuttin' but grindin'!" It's up to him to save the farm, so he does what he does best...grinds hard. The local towns people (who are all of Russian decent for a peculiar reason), gather to witness this historic event.

So, help Eddy by aiming his grinder and destroying the falling debris. Blow up Rum to upgrade your grinder, avoid the poison. Shoot the Radioactive Feathers to "make go boom", and grind your way towards that worm hole and show em' who's boss!
