Samurai II: Vengeance

Samurai II: Vengeance

Platform: iOS
October 21, 2010
The long-awaited sequel to Samurai: Way of the Warrior has finally arrived on iPhone and iPad! While the original got rave reviews for its stylized manga graphics and quick, bloody gameplay, Samurai II delivers even more action and an intuitive new control scheme. Samurai: Way of the Warrior was featured in Best Games of 2009 by Apple – Samurai II is a true successor, aided by over a year of focused development. Overall production values and vicious action put Samurai II on par with console 3D brawlers. Screenshots don’t do Samurai II justice – the fluid action has to be seen running at 60 frames per second on the Retina display or popping off the iPad screen. But looks alone won’t carry a game – the developers listened to fan feedback and improved gameplay throughout. With a new virtual d-pad, dynamic camera, environmental puzzles, traps, and vicious new enemies, Samurai II is brand new experience for hack ‘n’ slash gamers on the go. Samurai II sends Daisuke on a quest for revenge across the war-scorched countryside. From a seafaring village to a flying fortress to the legendary Isle of the Dead, the samurai will stop at nothing to hunt down his arch-enemy Orochi. Will he get his Vengeance? FEATURES: ? Universal app - supports iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPod Touch 3G, and iPad. The game is optimized to take advantage of each device's strengths. ? Intuitive virtual joystick ensures you’re slicing up baddies, not swiping the screen. ? Dynamic camera finds the best perspective for each encounter, adding variety while keeping focused on the action. ? Tense, quick and gory battle sequences! - Battle hordes of on-screen enemies wielding new weapons and sporting unique abilities. - Stay nimble and plan your attacks – roll out of harm’s way and eliminate ranged enemies like the Samurai Archer before they can strike. ? Improved gameplay includes new features. - Solve environmental puzzles, avoid dangerous traps, and discover useful items. - The fight is on - not to worry, the combat never takes a back seat to platforming or fetch-quests. ? RPG elements reward skilled players – upgrade the Samurai’s health, buy new attack combos and upgrade them to devastating levels. ? Between levels, gorgeous anime-style comic panels tell the samurai’s tale with original hand-drawn artwork. ? New survival mode pits the samurai against waves of enemies, giving hardcore players a score-attack mode to hone their skills. Two games in one! ? Runs at 60 frames per second on iPhone 4G, iPod 4G and iPad. ? Advanced AI system on par with console games. Goal Oriented Action Planning architecture is used in many PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 games. ? Samurai II is developed on the Unity 3D 3.0 engine, the latest technology available on mobile devices. ? Apple Game Center support, including Leaderboards and Achievements. ? Original soundtrack – in classic samurai movie style, soft music builds with the heat of battle. Special Thanks To : ImNoSuperMan, PureSkill, Squarezero, Rocco, eggzbacon, Prab

Power Gig: Rise of the SixString

Power Gig: Rise of the SixString

Platform: PlayStation 3
October 19, 2010
Power Gig: Rise of the SixString will transport players to an entirely new universe, with its own mythology, politics, settings, heroes and villains, where music rules all. On the gameplay front, Power Gig uses new technology that represents the next evolution of music performance games to provide all players - from casual gamers to the hardcore, from those who have never before picked up a guitar to those who play guitar on a regular basis - with a more authentic and fun experience. The game offers two overarching modes of play. In addition to traditional beat-matching that will be familiar to fans of the band game genre, Power Gig also introduces the option to switch on chording, or chord play. Chording presents the added challenge of playing the game using chords that require specific finger placement on the strings. As players progress through the game, becoming more comfortable with a genuine guitar and potentially choosing to play real power chords, they will find that the byproduct of playing the game is coming away from it with an understanding of some real-life guitar fundamentals.

ThruSpace

Platform: Wii
October 18, 2010
ThruSpace is an exciting puzzle game in which you move and rotate an object called a keydron through gaps in walls. Putting your keydron through a gap earns you points, but mastering this ability allows you to perform combos (picking up pairs of crystals simultaneously) and tricks (rotating the keydron so that its shadow covers all of the gap before passing through it), which are key to achieving high scores. Refine your skills in multiple game modes (Normal, Endless and Trick Challenge), brush up on the rules in Keydron Tutorial, or watch replay data in Keydron Memories. As the game progresses, the number of available keydrons, backgrounds, stages and levels will increase. If you have a broadband Internet connection, you can register your high scores on the leaderboard via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and compare scores with other ThruSpace players. This game is easy to play but difficult to master. Do you have the skills and reflexes necessary to overcome the increasingly complex challenges of ThruSpace?

ZX Spectrum: Elite Collection

ZX Spectrum: Elite Collection

Platform: iOS
October 3, 2010
We have ambitious goals for ‘ZX Spectrum: Elite Collection’ … “… to offer access - via mobile and wireless devices - to many of the thousands of fantastic ZX Spectrum games created since 1982… and “…to restore some order to the market for ZX Spectrum games and to enable other developers and publishers to offer access to their games by licencing our technology for a modest one off fee.” The media and consumer reaction to the announcement, in late September, of Apple’s approval of ZX Spectrum: Elite Collection has been extensive and enthusiastic. Our concerns now are to ensure that both groups understand that Vol. #1 of the App is a work-in-progress, a rough diamond if you like and that we’re committed to developing the App (eliminating some of its more obvious shortcomings and adding new features) over the weeks and months ahead. Our commitments include: - the App will always be priced at £0.59 (Euro0.79, US$0.99) - 6 more games in a free update (Vol. #2), within a month, taking the number included to 12 - a further free update (Vol. #3), within a further month, including an in-App ‘shop’. This inaugural volume includes: - Turbo Esprit #3 on top 100 best games, voted for by visitors to World of Spectrum - Saboteur #10 on top 100 best games, voted for by visitors to World of Spectrum - Chuckie Egg the classic, developed by Nigel Alderton - Harrier Attack inspired by the conflict in the South Atlantic - Frank Bruno’s Boxing the UK #1 Best-Seller - Buggy Boy the arcade original driving game Features of this inaugural volume: - 100% original ZX Spectrum games - for each of the 6 games o game-specific play controls o extensive playing instructions - option of portrait or (full-screen) landscape play / display modes - authentic ‘Spectrum’ sound - wikipedia.org link to ‘ZX Spectrum’ Commercial agreements have already been reached with two more publishers (including one of the 80s biggest) taking to more than 200 the number of games available for inclusion in the forthcoming updates or volumes of ZX Spectrum: Elite Collection. (This will keep us busy through to Vol. #6 and beyond). Also, we’re in discussion with the owners of 100s more games, including some of the most well known, with the aim of bringing them to you too. About Elite®: Elite Systems Ltd was incorporated in England in 1984 and is one of Europe’s most long established developers and publishers of entertainment software. Elite® has a catalogue of more than 50 games (under the Elite® and Durrel™ brands) for the ZX Spectrum, including more than half a dozen UK and European #1 chart successes. About ZX Spectrum: The ZX Spectrum is an 8-bit personal home computer released in the UK in 1982 by Sinclair Research Ltd. The Spectrum was released in eight different models, ranging from the entry level model with 16 KB RAM released in 1982 to the ZX Spectrum +3 with 128 KB RAM and built in floppy disk drive in 1987, together they sold in excess of 5 million units worldwide. The ZX Spectrum software library currently consists of more than 21,000 titles including some 10,000 games. Despite the fact that the Spectrum hardware was limited by most standards, its software library was very diverse, including programming language implementations, assemblers, BASIC compilers, word processors, spread sheets, drawing and painting tools, even 3D modeling tools and, of course, many, many games.

UFO on Tape

Platform: iOS
September 30, 2010
What would you do if you were driving along and a real UFO descended from the clouds? Run screaming? Or grab your trusty iPhone and give chase?! 'UFO on Tape' puts you in the hot seat as you speed through the countryside in hot pursuit of visitors from outer space. How much footage will you get, will it be clear, will you be kidnapped and subjected to scientific experiments? Only time will tell! With photo-realistic graphics, the best use of the gyroscope or accelerometer this side of the vega system, loads of in-game voice dialogue from your hysterical virtual girlfriend, gamecenter scoring, and the kind of elusive 'just one more try' gameplay that keeps you up till the wee hours, 'UFO on Tape' is the ultimate pick up 'n play hi-score chaser! The kind of unique gaming experience that is all too rare and will only be found on iOS devices. You will believe! *Developer Notes: An innovative game sometimes needs a bit of background explanation, especially where as in cases like this static screens don't compare to seeing the game in motion :) i. Screenshots show actual in-game graphics! UFO on Tape is designed for the iPod Touch and iPhone and does not require or use the iPhone camera in any way. ii. It may look uber-realistic (that was the plan:) but we can tell you it does not contain pre-recorded video. It is a highly responsive edge of your seat game that allows you to move anywhere within the game world - not to be confused with so called alternate reality novelty apps. iii. The game makes exquisite use of the gyroscope but players with older devices will have just as much fun using the built-in tilt controls. See a video of the game in action here: bit.ly/a64DUh and keep your eyes on the skies! :)

The Swarm is an action-packed third-person shooter that drops players into the middle of a nuclear fallout after in alien invasion in Moscow, Russia. The game forces players to choose between absorbing alien DNA – and powerful skills -- at the cost of gradually become a monster, or retaining their own humanity to fight off the alien invaders. In The Swarm, players navigate an alien-infested Red Square in Moscow, shown under the effects of a nuclear catastrophe. The game features a unique adaptive combat system, where players awaken in an alien laboratory and will choose throughout the game to either enhance their performance with alien DNA that increases attributes like stamina and health, or retain their humanity – and standard abilities – to fight the invading forces. While searching for an antidote to cure their allies against the alien mutation, players will solve DNA mini-games and puzzles for the option to absorb new abilities and become more adept at fighting tougher enemies. Players can then build and change alien DNA chains to improve different abilities like harvested energy from the bodies of defeated enemies, increased regeneration rate, enhanced vision or develop physical manifestations with access to energy weapons and sharp claws. Players can use a variety of weapons—including firearms, clubs, plasma projectors and grenades—for melee or ranged combat against enemies. [505 Games]

Gormiti: The Lords of Nature! features characters and locations from the popular Gormiti TV show co-produced by Marathon Media & Giochi Preziosi.

The books eventually land at the feet of Magmion, the evil Lava Gormiti. Magmion reads the book and learns of an old legend which talks about reuniting five sacred amulets which have been scattered across Gorm. Once reunited these amulets allow the holder to open an inter-dimensional portal to Earth! The Lords of Nature need to use all their unique powers to hinder Magmion's plans and save Earth. The game recreates the beautifully illustrated island of Gorm, where the Lords of Earth, Sea, Air and Forest are charged with stopping the evil Magmion from wreaking havoc.
