Some of the games created at this past weekend’s “What Would Molydeux?” gamejam are beginning to show up online. A gamejam is when developers, designers, and all-around creators build a title from scratch over the course of a weekend (or sometimes longer). The Molyjam -- as it’s known on the streets -- takes that concept and applies the concepts originally tweeted by the Peter Molyneux parody Twitter account @PeterMolydeux. For example, below is a video of Friends ‘til the End which was created during the gameboree and was based on this tweet: “You play as a small boy with a remote control helicopter that is alive and your friend, then you discover a nuclear missle (sic) inside it.”

Gaming is weird and awesome. Get that game here and keep an eye on whatwouldmolydeux.com for more.
