Last Minute Halloween Costumes From AddictingGames

What should I be??

What should I be??

With the big night just 2 days away I’m sure most of you already know what you are going to be for Halloween. However, I know that there are many people out there just like myself who always wait till the last minute to figure out their costume. For this post I’m going to give you some ideas on costumes you can put together from our games using stuff around the house. Here are some great costumes that you can pull off using some of our most classic characters.

red-remover Red Box - Red Remover

This is probably the easiest costume you could ever put together. All you need is a box and then some red paint or markers and a black marker to draw on a face! You can hit the town and tell people all about how you have spent hours trying to get rid of all the red. Find some friends to play along and you guys could make your own live action levels! If you actually do this, shoot a video and send it to us! I’d love to see that!

stick Stick Figure - Stick Wars

The Stick figure is a very under rated Halloween costume! You can be a stick-any thing! All you need is a full set of black clothes, a black ski mask with small eyes cut out or you can black your face out with make-up or face paint. Then grab your favorite weapon and lead your trick or treating party to war as the bravest stick on the block!

zombie TP Mummy - Throw Ancient Stuff

The Toilet Paper Mummy is always in your back pocket if you just can’t think of anything else! This is another fun costume to do as a group because the more mummies running around grunting the better! If you don’t have some extra tp at the house, 4 Packs of toilet paper can be found at most supermarkets or corner stores for around a dollar so the price is right for sure! Once you have your toilet paper, wrap your self up silly and you are good to go!

ghost Ghost - Boo

Probably the most classic Halloween costume ever is the bed sheet ghost. While it may seem lame and plain it’s up to you to make it different. Try using some colorful sheets. You can be a confused ghost or if the sheets have polka-dots you can be a sick ghost! It’s up to you to make the costume great because while you are dressing up as something else, it’s your personality that will shine through. This one is great for scaring little kids too!

So if you still don’t have a costume after this don’t worry! We have 3,000 games on AddictingGames.com and that means tons of different characters are out there to inspire you for this Saturday night. You can’t lose with AG!

Developers Corner: Matt Richez from C.C.C.P.

Matt made this game!

We at AddictingGames are creating a new blog segment entitled, “Developers Corner”!

I had the pleasure of  sitting down with CCCP guru, Matt Richez, and asking a few very important about what it’s like developing awesome hits, such as Pirate Puzzler.

Anya: So, Matt, tell us about yourself, and your company.

Matt Hi I’m Matt, I created a company called C.C.C.P. a few years ago. We worked mostly on serious games and developed casual games before interesting ourselves to the flash game industry. On a side note, I attended a French school of Game Design called Supinfogame before that.

Anya: Fantastic! Well, what games did you make that are on AddictingGames?

Matt: We made Pirate Puzzler, and many new ones on preparation.

Anya: We love that game! How did you get into the flash game industry?

Matt: We were developing with flash for some time for our other projects, and someday I stumbled upon DTD, and I thought “waow, it would be cool to make this kind of games and earn money with them!”.

Anya: Earning money doing something you love? That’s great! What are some of your favorite games?

Matt: DTD. And any RPG/Tactical game I can find, on any platform. And PES.

Anya: Well, thank you for your time, Matt. One last question- If you weren’t in the flash game industry, what would you be doing?

Matt: Making boring apps and/or websites.
