Knob life
Cecropia (an odd, creepy name of a company, if you ask me) is making a FilmGame™ where you affect the interaction of two Disney-ish characters by turning a knob. It's called "The Act." One scene involves flirting (knob goes from timid to aggressive), another involves courage (but I wonder why in that scene you don't just crank it up to 11). It's like Dragon's Lair for the 21st century and I'd guess just as dumb/delightfully entertaining. It's fascinating to think that the full complexity of life can be reduced to a single knob.
From the press release: "The Act will expand the demographic for videogames to include soccer moms, teenage girls, and everyone else who enjoys a good romantic comedy."
