Wideload Studios, developers of cult fave “Stubbs the Zombie” and the upcoming “Hail to the Chimp,” have announced the formation of a spinoff studio, dubbed “Shorts.” This new studio will be dedicated primarily to producing games that don’t require a lot of time to complete. Scott Corley, the new BMOC for Shorts, explains:
Wideload Shorts is here to make games for everyone out there who used to play games, who still want to play games, but can no longer invest forty hours a week playing games.
This is a really good idea, in my opinion. Sometimes you just get too busy to really devote yourself to an epic game, leaving you to either play nothing or start playing a long game with huge breaks in between. Hopefully they charge less than $60 for these shorter games though.

Wideload Studios? I think they should rename themselves as A.D.D. Games.
And any engine they use should appropriately called Ritalin.
