Cambell’s Oddity Box

Remember back in the 90s and 00s when you’d get demo discs? Maybe they came free with your favourite gaming magazine, or were hidden inside a box of cereal. They were great. This is the modern version of that idea.

Cambell’s Oddity Box is a collection of fun, self-contained experiences. Games, experimental input methods, unusual menu designs, and other strange little ideas all live together in one place. The collection will be continually updated, with new Oddities added as they are ready.

Keep an eye out for Easter eggs and collectables. Discover something interesting in one game and it might unlock something new in another. Find a gold block in one Oddity and you could unlock an alternate skin somewhere else.

Each experience, referred to as an Oddity, is accessed through the main menu. The main menu can always be reached by pressing the Start button or the ESC key. Beyond that, all bets are off. Every Oddity has its own design language, art style, rules, and game play mechanics.

Most games support controller or mouse and keyboard input. Some may even allow interaction through the Cambell’s Oddity Box companion app. (To be released at a later date)

Warning: Many of these games will be severely broken, unfinished, hardly even games.

Some of the Oddities currently included in the Oddity Box:

Chop The Food

Swipe with a mouse, finger, controller stick to slice through the fruits. Rack up points and try to get a combo to be called Master Chef!

Punt A Puck An air hockey-style game where you bounce a puck between two players, featuring smart enemy AI. Also a local 2 player mode.

PLEASE NOTE: Purchasing the base game does not unlock any real playable content. That is delivered by downloading the free DLCs that release over time. This is done so you can arrange your own box of oddities. If you like one game but not another there's no point in having them all cluttering the menu and taking up storage space. Try all of the DLC and uninstall any that aren't to your taste.
