[Administrator]

Shelter and Pid developer Might & Delight has released a new bite-sized shmup today called The Blue Flamingo.
Available on PC via Steam for £3.99, The Blue Flamingo's signature feature is its stop-motion animation that fills the screen with handcrafted models.
"A 32 feet long handcrafted model was built specially for the game, along with countless props and assets that were filmed and photographed," the Swedish developer explained. "The green-screened material was made into sprites and combined with the background to mesh the visual image together. Finally, all the effects, rocket flares and explosions were created using firecrackers and other pyrotechnics. Strings with magnets pulling cars, small lighted miniature trains and shiny animated cloth are all details in the process behind The Blue Flamingo world."
