NEW GAME LIVE ON FUNTICO!🔥⌨️

Infinity Warp - another community beloved game, that won GameLoop, just graduated to the main platform!

The developer (@InfiniWarp - show some love!) of this survival/endless runner game, impressed us from the very beginning, with how well the gameplay and the mechanics are designed and thought out. The lore, also intriguing: after a strange portal appeared, you've been tasked with exploring the Warp found on the other side. Each time you reach a new area, you'll get to pick from multiple random upgrades, but the Warp itself will also get more dangerous! 🚀

To make the integration complete, Rooms for 5 Players are LIVE right now and early next week Tournaments are ready to go as well! The game comes with Campaign and Practice mode and will very soon also support the Hall of Fame features.

LET THE WEEKEND BEGIN EARLY - PLAY NOW ON -> https://t.co/vDXlrsQZCs

Kashiwa Sato, born in Tokyo in 1965, is a renowned Japanese creative director and graphic designer. He graduated from Tama Art University’s Graphic Design program and worked for 11 years at Hakuhodo, a leading Japanese advertising agency, before founding his own studio, Samurai, in 2000. Known for his minimalist and iconic design approach, Sato draws inspiration from Japanese culture and traditions, emphasizing simplicity and clarity. His work spans branding, logo design, product development, and architecture, with notable clients including Uniqlo, Honda, and Seven Eleven.Sato designed Uniqlo’s current logo, introduced in 2006, to reflect the brand’s Japanese identity and global ambitions. The logo features the word "UNIQLO" in a custom typeface, stacked vertically, against a bright red square background, echoing the colors of the Japanese flag. A second version incorporates the Katakana script "ユニクロ" (yunikuro), creating a dual-language design intended to appeal to both Japanese and international audiences. This redesign debuted at Uniqlo’s flagship store in New York’s SoHo district and became the official logo in Japan by 2009. Sato’s intention was to make the logo simple, memorable, and evocative of Japanese pop culture, aligning with Uniqlo’s global branding strategy under CEO Tadashi Yanai. He has also overseen broader branding efforts, including store designs and the UT T-shirt line, reinforcing Uniqlo’s identity as a functional yet culturally rooted fashion brand.

@LucieBajgart Jackbox's Fibbage 3's UI motion design might interest you. It popped in my head the second I saw this, haha. All retro 70s inspired.
