Spooky Wednesday on Kiruna Radio 97.3

Spökonsdag

i Kiruna Radio 97,3

Kortfilm

Spooky Wednesday is a radio show that airs every other Wednesday from 10 p.m. until the witching hour, two hours later. In the show, listeners can call in and share their own experiences, or those of someone they know, with the supernatural.

Usually, it’s about some cousin from Gällivare who has seen a shadow in the corner of his eye or heard a mysterious noise once. But this Wednesday, everything is different.

Frightened listeners calling in have all experienced terrifying phenomena throughout the evening. There have been sightings in the city of a revenant, apparently heading straight for the radio studio.

Starring Elias Lycksell, Lina Brännström and Markus Tornberg.

They came from another planet

They came from

another planet

Game

A twin stick, fixed shooter, bonus hell, pixel art, shoot ’em up inspired by old arcade classics.

Invading aliens

Aliens have invaded and you, a blue housecat with a stretchy head, are, of course, our last hope.

Fight the aliens on earth, under the ocean and in space in this risk/reward based fixed shooter inspired by old arcade shoot ’em ups.

Shoot aliens and collect stars!

You are a blue house cat with a stretchy head. As aliens have invaded you are our last defense against their hordes. Fight the aliens on earth, under the ocean and in space in this fixed shooter inspired by old arcade classics.

Arcade style shoot ’em up

They came from another planet is a risk/reward based, arcade style shoot ’em up where you fight aliens by shooting at them (from your ears).

Killing an alien results in falling stars that you collect to level up and get stronger. You can stretch your head to collect more stars, but beware, stretching makes you an easy target for the invading force.

Stars also give you points. Points are useless but fun. You can also get to write your initials on the high score table if you have enough of them, just like in the arcades.

Reckless and rich or safe and poor

I you are hit, your head will split and have to connect before your life meter runs out. Leveling up by catching more stars is crucial in order to survive longer when split. In the end, it’s up to you how you like to play. Reckless and rich or safe and poor.

Sometimes the aliens also drops a power up to help you on your journey.

Horrible Night

Music video/Game

What a horrible night indeed…

Dracula is back, and you, dear player, have to, once again step in to the shadows of the hell house to rid the world of his deadly curse.

Local rock band The Drats wanted to make a video to their song Horrible Night, inspired by the NES Castlevanias. So we decided to make a music video also inspired by NES Castlevania, as well as Nosferatu, Bram Stroker’s Dracula and the old Hammer films. But what if we could also make it playable?

Short doc from 2020

Let author and historian Curt Persson guide you along the Big Finance Trek, an expedition conducted in 1896 along what would eventually become the Iron Ore Line from Narvik to Kiruna.
