ORISINAL: There are cuter ways to procrastinate

Everybody has played online games at some point or another. The Internet is just full of them, from MMORPG’s with lots of users to smaller ones in interactive E-Cards.  Orisinal is a gem unknown to many, so I want to share with the world Ferry Halim’s adorable creations.

Orisinal is certainly different. Ferry himself says, in an interview by b3ta.com that “Everyone has their own style, and mine is the “clean & nice” style.” and that he avoids first person shooters “there’s already a lot of those games on the net”.

Truth is, except for a minimal number of them, Ferry Halim’s games are anything but violent. Most games involve cute little situations with very lovable animal characters. The artwork is lovely and the music fits the games well while being relaxing. The overall effect is a heartwarming addiction to his games, which are certainly dripping originality.

 

Not surprisingly, the site has millions of hits. Just checking out the Guestbook confirms it. The Guestbook too happens to be a work of art. It allows you to choose and create your own little blob character that reacts differently when the mouse is rolled over.

Anyway, Orisinal is worth being discovered. I, for one, certainly recommend it.
It’ll get your mind off things and into fluffy worlds of squishable cuteness.
