Fruit Ninja Classic

It's fully motion and everything.

It has classics like Fruit Ninja and stuff like that on it.

Yeah, I just saw a kid playing Fruit Ninja on it.

It's very much like a kid's first console sort of thing.

But it's got some big things.

It's got Bluey, it's got Sesame Street, it's got Fruit Ninja, it's got Avatar.

It's just all motion control stuff.

So, I mean, if you've got a kid and you're trying to think of something that you could get them that is safer, shall we say, than the consoles that are currently available, and maybe you don't want them sat on their butts all day, you want them moving.

Oh, that, that, that's fair.

Luke Muscat made, uh, or was partly responsible for Fruit Ninja and Jetpack Joyride, and Normal Golf Game, I believe, is his, like, first truly independent project.

He has been documenting this on YouTube, and this game, at first, you're gonna look at it and think, "Oh, it's a Bennett Foddy style game," a thing like getting over it, uh, where you're going to just get very frustrated, and the h- humor and, and fun of the game is, like, just bashing your head over and over and over again against a wall.

That is not what this is.

It's, it's a fun game, honestly.

Uh, that and Fruit Ninja, which is now in Apple Arcade and also on the Oculus Quest, uh, are like the original classics-

Yeah

... that I absolutely loved playing.

Um, and, uh, really enjoyed the big screen for that.

It...

But I used the big screen on my iPad for that, Fruit Ninja, and also, uh, like dictionaries and thesauruses and grammar books in my language classes.

So there was a little bit of extremes going on there, but, you know, all work and no play m- it makes a iPad very, very sad.

you

yes uh i didn't know the this was made by the guy who made fruit ninja Unless

the person in my chat lied to me.

Halfbrick Studios.

Halfbrick Studios is a crazy name.

Yeah.

They are an Australian company known for games like Fruit Ninja, Jeff Packjoy Ride, and Dan the Man.

I actually played this game a lot.

I mean, the hypercasual era wasn't the first one.

If you remember a few years before, we had games like Fruit Ninja and Flappy Bird and Angry Birds and even Snake.

Those were the first hypercasual games.

People loved simplicity.

You didn't need any expertise.

Everyone played Snake when we were kids.

Everyone played Fruit Ninja when it was there.

So the mass appeal was there.
