Any idea how you submit to this? I see nothing on their page, but Hamsterball would be a good fit in Kid's Arcade.

Figure you start by talking your BigFish rep (if have one). Although my understanding is the branded Nick games are stealing the show while others pull up the rear. Other day saw an advert for Nick's Arcade on TV and they showed snippets of Mike's Spongebob Best Friends variant, pretty cool.

Well balls. My BigFish contact is via GameHouse.

Now, SpongeBob could make a cool Hamsterball variant... Sponge Bob in a bubble in a weird weird world...

I tried to send a PM with the right contact, but your inbox is full. I'll send an email instead.

Thanks!

(This message reply is too short. Therefore I am padding this message reply with bandwidth. I shall tell the story of a childhood friend of mine who ate a worm. I had this childhood friend, named Scott, and one time he at a worm on a dare. That's the story. Why is 'Thanks' too short of a message to be posted here?)
