What is POP: Methodology Experiment One?  Well, as you can see it's experimental!

Another unique intro video, this time from Rob Lach, for his game POP: Methodology Experiment One!

POP: Methdology Experiment One is an experimental game in the most literal sense. The game was purposefully built in way that explores a different approach to the typical game development pipeline. It was developed by first composing the music and running with the first game concept that happened to emerge during that creative process. In POP, the player plays through a series of erratic minigames stylistically tied with the music. The vignettes are interconnected by idiosyncratic videos creating a purposefully disjointed experience. POP:ME1 is currently available for PC, MAC, and OnLive.

Sigh (intro) - Rob Lach

So this is the opener of this pretty sweet indie game called POP: Methodology Experiment 1

Basically, the developer wanted to see what would happen if he turned the normal development cycle on it's head.  He wrote the music first, made the art, and then coded everything together.

The end result is a trippy warioware style game that's audio/visual candy.  I think it works wonderfully, and EVERYTHING sound matches up with the visuals perfectly og god it's so cool.

I like to see people rocking the game development boat this way.  Less talk, more rock!
