Monaco Co-Op

What times this week can you log into Steam to bumble through meticulously planned but hilariously executed thievery in Monaco: What's Yours is Mine w/ your Omaha Game Club brothers and sisters?

Leave a comment w/ all the times you're free, so we can get our group planning on!

Also, the club is currently experiencing an alarming dearth of sisters.

Cheers,

Danny

Now Playing Monaco: What's Yours is Mine

It has been decided!  The Omaha Game Club's inaugural game shall be Monaco: What's Yours is Mine.    Monaco won the 2010 Seumas McNally grand prize at the 2010 GDC Independent Games Festival, and was just released for Windows on April 24.

Monaco is a top down stealth/heist game with a retro aesthetic that is designed to be played cooperatively.  The Omaha Game Club will be setting up games of Monaco so members can play together and get a taste of that sweet, sweet co-op!  Also, there's a Monaco four-pack available on Steam, so members should coordinate their purchases to save some cash.

Andy Schatz, Monaco's lead designer/developer and founder of Pocketwatch Games, actually Skyped into an Omaha Game Developers Association Meeting in March 2012, and gave a great talk to Omaha's aspiring game devs.  That talk lives here!

Also, the Schatz man gave a kick ass presentation at GDC titled "How to Win the IGF in 15 Weeks or Less."  The presentation is free to view courtesy of the GDC Vault.  Highly recommended.

Brandon and Taylor (and any as-of-yet uninitiated members), get ready to heist some shit!  The games begin on Monday!

Cheers,

Danny
