Welcome to our new website design! We figured it was time for a refresh to coincide with our new logo and Mikeware 3.0. Interestingly, this is the 3rd major revamp of our website!
We have a Discord server now! What are you waiting for?
Mikeware is entering its third era now in 2024 and beyond with the introduction of our third major logo:
Check out our Ludum Dare 38 entry "Odd Ball" for the "A Small World" theme competition from this past weekend.
We're pleased to announce that Cogs in a Machine is now available for purchase through The Game Crafter!
Cogs in a Machine is an easy to learn press-your-luck dice rolling game for 2-6 players. Play as a gnome working on an assembly line. Use your gnome's special abilities and roll dice to build Cogs and Teeth, which you use to assemble components. Assemble as many components as you can before your other co-gnomes. The other gnomes will try to **Supervise **your work, but be warned: They may not have your best interest at heart. After all, it's every gnome for themselves when you're a cog in a machine!
"Cogs in a Machine" is a game we've been working on for a while. It's a dice game for 2-6 players:
Michael A. Hawker and Brett Wortzman presented this talk at PAXDev 2014 about how non-educational games can have educational value in the classroom. Synopsis:

Check out the Let's Play video of Gamius Type IV we found:
The original intent for Battle Box was to be a cloud based game you could play against other people (at random). That dream is now a reality.
Mikeware is happy to announce that "Gamius Type IV" will launch exclusively on the OUYA as it ships this coming weekend. The ONLYOUYA game will be available, in full, for free during the launch period.
The Game Crafter recently updated their site and we haven't updated to their new template yet. Thus, Road Construction was automatically unpublished.
Had a great weekend at PAX and PAXDev! As you may know, at PAXDev we gave a talk on our space simulation project given after the Advanced Placement Computer Science exam this year at Issaquah High School. It was requested that we post the slides to our talk. So without further ado...
Mikeware backs the OUYA game console as an Elite Developer. Look for original Mikeware games on the console in March 2013!
Figure I should switch over to the new format. Still haven't had a chance to convert everything over to the new format.
Spent some time working on the new website format here. Got the nice icon in the banner and fixed the site image on the right.
