“I don’t think I slept for about two weeks.”

If you were looking for a nostalgic way to kill the afternoon, Perth band Furniture have you covered, as they unveil their very own 2D video game.

The new retro, Celtic-themed endeavours, Derek’s Gonna Make It Rain, coincides with the release of their brand new single, Pete’s Song, which repeats the title of Flash-based platformer over and over again.

“I discovered I was okay at pixel art and after teaching myself Unity with help from the people I met at the Global Game Jam event early this year,” said guitarist Aaran Gicquel.

“I decided it was time to make my own game based on the song using all the fun elements from the Tears Of Innocence Round The Twist episode.
