From ulvespill: "The 2021 Game Prize was held on Saturday 2 April at Eldorado in Oslo by the Virke Producers' Association and the Norwegian Film Institute. The game award is an annual award ceremony for the Norwegian gaming industry to honor and showcase the best of the best of last year's releases."
So, what do you get if you make a space monkey, Tetris and Hole In The Wall? You get Bonkies, a local cooperative player game developed by Studio Gauntlet and published by Crunching Koalas, where you use cute as hell space monkeys to make Tetris shape blocks fit in designated shapes. It’s a simple premise but sometimes the simplest ideas are the most enjoyable, especially when it comes to couch coop games.
CCG writes - "Building in space is challenging but necessary for colonization. Monkeys are more than willing to assist and the best part is that they’ll happily work for bananas. Later in the game, you’ll unlock other creatures like dogs, koalas, cats, and more."
