Kotaku: Things were getting weird last week when the cheerful game developer and digital media artist Hye Yeon Nam started gluing a sensor to her tongue, weirder still when she had me glue one to mine.
‘kiss controller’ uses the act of kissing as a sensory input for video games, providing an unconventional alternative to the wii remote, playstation move and kinect.
This is just plain creepy. And what happens if you've not got a GF to hand. Do you grab your mom or sister?
That's a rhetorical question btw.
Whatever happened to the days of just sitting down with a normal game controller and playing a game lol.
DIYGamer: "We previewed a lot, dare I say a butt-load, of games at IndieCade last month. Playing fantastically weird indies wasn’t the only thing to do though, there was also a lot of discussion going on. We were able to stop by a couple of the panels going on throughout the festival with camera in tow, and are please to be able to pass them along here.
Below are a trio of videos that make up this year’s Well-Played Session II Panel, which included Phil Fish and Hye Yeon Nam going over various development aspects of their respective titles Fez and Kiss Controller."
DiRo Lab: "And that's what it felt like to play the Kiss Controller. It was hard; it was an interface I'd never tried before; I didn't have the hang of it, and it was frustrating! Add to that the fact that the entire audience is watching and telling me, "go left! GO LEFT!!" and you have an experience which is pretty much the opposite of romantic!"
