The Bats Are Released: Bat Country

Bat Country is a great little browser game that tells the touching story of a helicopter pilot doing whatever it takes to get his men back, even if "whatever it takes" means defeating a whole sky full of massive bats, and even if you never find out who those 'men' actually are. You fly your craft around with the mouse, there's a really nice bomb-throwing mechanic and the music's pretty great. Have a play. C'mon, it's Christmas! Let's kill some bats! Thanks to the Indiegames blog for the tipoff. More bats please, Indiegames blog. I like bats a lot.

These days, you can find him talking about tabletop board games over on Shut Up And Sit Down, or doing proper grown-up journalism with the folks at People Make Games.
