Small Arms “Viral” Achievement detailed on MTV.com
Tuesday, June 27th, 2006Jake had a little chat with MTV about our super secret (until now) viral achievment.
“In the next few months, Jacob Van Wingen — the 27-year-old director and programmer of the late summer/ early fall Xbox Live Arcade fighting game “Small Arms” — hopes people will strive for an Achievement he calls “Six Degrees of ‘Small Arms.’ ” It’s an Achievement that will start with the four people at his small game development company, Gastronaut Studios, and spread to anyone who plays them online. It will continue to be contagious for anyone who has it, and (Van)Wingen hopes they will be able to program it in such a way that those who catch it will be able to tell how many degrees they are separated from the first players at Gastronaut.”
