Wideload announces 'Shorts' division for digital downloads

Heading the new division is Scott Corley who says he doesn't want to use the term "casual games" for Wideload Shorts because it has so many different meaning now. He says the games they are creating are "meant to have clear goals, allow shorter periods of play, and have interfaces that are intuitive even if the player is new to games." He says they are planning on releasing games on XBLA, PSN and WiiWare. There's no word yet what these games will be, but they will have Wideload's "trademark humor," which means if you like Stubbs the Zombie and the upcoming Hail to the Chimp intrigues you, keep an eye out for the first game from Wideload Shorts this fall.

Loved Stubbs and look forward to whatever these guys do...although i'm still not completely sold on Hail to the Chimp. Screenshots are not that impressive, but it sounds like it could be cool.
I'll wait and watch. Wideload could do some really cool stuff for xbla.

I have a lot of faith in Wideload to do good work. I talked to them a while ago and they seem like a good group of guys with some really great ideas.
