Win Your Very Own Copy of BRAINPIPE!
A Musical Contest From Shrapnel Games And PwnEm.com!

Hampstead, NC, 05 August 2009

BRAINPIPE: A Plunge to Unhumanity is a game that not only will explode
your eyeballs like a decompression chamber because of its amazingly
cool visuals, but it also tickles your ears with some of the most
hypnotic sounds to emanate from your computer speakers. The audio is a
wonderful soundscape that won both the 2009 IGF Excellence in Audio
award and an Ernie for the best in-game audio, and with that in mind
what better way to honor the game but with a musical contest?

Shrapnel Games and game forum PwnEm.com have teamed up to allow two
lucky winners to win their very own copy of the full retail version of
Digital Eel's alien mind control device cleverly disguised as a
computer game, BRAINPIPE: A Plunge to Unhumanity. The contest runs
until August 22nd and is open to registered users of PwnEm.com, and
since registration is quick and painless there's no reason not to sign
up and take a chance on the contest.

The contest is very easy to participate in. Simply join the BRAINPIPE
contest thread at PwnEm.com and either state a song that describes the
game or a song that describes how you feel when you play the game. It
doesn't matter if it's Rachmaninoff, Warbringer, or Elvis Costello,
it's all about how the music and game tie together for YOU (although
anyone posting something from Attack Attack! may be mocked).

Full details of the contest can be found on the PwnEM.com site.

BRAINPIPE: A Plunge to Unhumanity is the latest game from Digital Eel
and is published by Shrapnel Games. Available as a download for only
$14.95 for either PCs or Macs (or free to the contest winners),
BRAINPIPE is one button journey through the darkest--and yet most
colorful--regions of the mind.

Players dash through tunnels of wildly cascading colors, racing to
collect glyphs while avoiding the dangers within, all for the ultimate
goal of both the high score and ascension to another existence.
BRAINPIPE: A Plunge to Unhumanity is playable in short sessions,
making it perfect for either the quick breakaway or for multiple
subsequent plays.

"The experience provided by this game can best be described as
"Zen-like". It is impossible to worry about one's job, spouse,
mortgage or other obligations when playing BRAINPIPE. The player is
not driven by a competitive need to earn a high score, or even by
curiosity about what the next level will be like. Instead, the player
is transported into an abstract world that is enjoyable in its own
right. The result is that a few minutes of playing BRAINPIPE have the
same effect as a well-needed nap or an energizing piece of good news."

So says Raven Lebeau, and we agree. BRAINPIPE is an energizing piece
of good news for you. Take a break from playing all those violent
murder simulators and enjoy some good old fashioned gameplay by
unleashing your inner tie-dyed hippie. Check out more information on
the game or download the demo to experience a taste for yourself.
