Hunter sends word of a cool little game he's created for the Experimental Gameplay Project's CONSUME competition.

In The Pit is an "audio-only" stealth action game, in which you play a nasty creature living at the bottom of a pit, hunting down people who fall in. The "audio-only" part means that there are absolutely no graphics at all.

The black square above is a screen shot from the game. Hunter explains that he developed it for use with the Xbox 360 wired controller because of the things scalable vibration. He says the controllers ability to minutely control its shakes is integral to the game and was also very easy to implement. Hunter also points out that his game was inspired by the audio-only Spaced Invaders type game that we've written about in the past.

If you have a controller, or can spare the $30 to buy one, check out the game at the link below.
