Animation and Art from Spirit Whirled!

[danilobuendia]

Hey everybody,

My wife and I, Élan, have been working on an independent game called Spirit Whirled, soon to be released on XBOX Live Community February 2009!

Game Synopsis:

"Spirit Whirled" is a charming game created by husband and wife team, Danilo and E'lan Buendia of cgIRIS. Guide Spirit through each progressively challenging level towards the doorway of light, all the while picking up spiraled spirit energy to unlock the door. What will Spirit find along the way and at the end of his ghost adventure!? Give it a play to find out! Thanks for your support!

Thanks, filmkicker!

This clearly isn't animation, but I still feel the music of the game is part of the whole game art of Spirit Whirled.

I've just been informed that the soundtrack is now available from Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Original-Video-Game-Soundtrack/dp/B0027D6OBW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=dmusic&qid=1240555615&sr=8-2)and CDBABY (http://cdbaby.com/cd/spiritwhirled)!!! I'm so excited to have completed this personal achievement!

You can listen to samples of the whole album at either location. I hope you enjoy it!
