Friday Entertainment and Custom Stickam Player Widget

Jun 01 2007

Update (2007.06.02): Epileptic Gaming will be covering the Blizzard US Regional Finals for Warcraft 3 LIVE this weekend so check them out.

We build a custom Stickam player widget for our friends over at Epileptic Gaming. Epileptic Gaming is a live internet show focusing on video games and the gaming culture. They do a great show so if you are into gaming you should definitely check them out. The show airs LIVE every weekday at 7:00 PM Eastern / 4:00 PM Pacific.

Epileptic Gaming utilizes Stickam to do the live video broadcast and chat sessions. We have wrapped the Stickam player in our own custom widget. The custom widget displays the Epileptic Gaming player by default and their list of Stickam friends. If the show is LIVE, the player will auto start. To open the full video chat room, click on “enter chat”. You can check out their friends if you like. Friends who are LIVE on Stickam will have a webcam icon next to their name.

The widget also helps promote CAGcast, another gaming show.

If you like the show and would like to spread the word, click the “i” icon to get the code for the widget.

Currently playing is Critical Hit, “a weekly panelist show where leading members of the industry will get together for honest, frank discussions about the inner workings of the gaming industry and gaming communities.” Critical Hit airs Fridays at 2:30 PM Pacific (on the EG account) before the Epileptic Gaming show.

[update (05/28/2008) - widget removed and discontinued due to lack of Stickam API support]




End the Weekend with a Bang - Duck Hunt (NES)

Jan 21 2007

Came across this at Widgets Lab. Some of you might remember Duck Hunt from the old Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Here’s a Flash widget version of the game.

Update (2007.3.5): Flash embed and links removed. Source appears to have changed.

It’s much harder than we remember it… But, we’ll blame the lack of accuracy of the mouse as compared to the original NES Zapper (light gun).
