“Well, Here’s Bloodlust Software’s parody of PONG, the classic cheapo paddle game.” Just as ugly as our first game, and just as stupid. Now the pong paddles have attitude and special moves, and the ball (now a severed head) bitches when you hit it. As odd as it seems, this game had its own competition group who would meet weekly to butt heads(err noggins?). Half-evolved versions of Hellbent and Smegma sit at a game show table with electrical caps hooked to their heads as they casually discuss the decay of society. The game started as a demonstration from a programmer to an artist to show the ease of programming, and evolved into what it is now. I believe this game took us about 2 weeks to finish. And before you make fun of Zippy, I actually saw him win! Once. Hey, I just realized Smegma had a typo right in our main title screen. There shouldn’t be a space between the words, but since it’s the title screen…maybe the typo is in the second game? Will the world ever solve this mystery?

Another thing that really makes Nogginknockers enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to Nogginknockers. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
