New information about Team Meat's upcoming mobile version of their hit platformer called Super Meat Boy. While the original game is more of a twitch-based style of gameplay in a platformer format, the mobile version of Super Meat Boy will play out more like a Canabalt type of game. Originally from Nintendo back in the 1980's, Eggs (Model EG-21) from Nintendo's Game and Watch pocket games series has been around for a long time and is also one of the rarer ones to try and find these days, the original version that is. Well now you can play this retro game on your Android device thanks to Celtic Spear called Eggs Deluxe. The Oregon Trail, a game from back in the day that is still popular and has had many revamps and spin-offs over the years, now has a new indie game development team working on a title which will pay homage to this classic. Currently being developed by a team calling themselves The Men Who Wear Many Hats, this new game will be filled with zombies and pixel art. As you may know already from us talking about the Shadowrun Returns Kickstarter project, this game will be coming to PC, Android and iOS tablets when it is released thanks to the initial $400,000 in successful funding. Topping over the $700k mark right now, new features have been announced along with a new set of features that will be added if the Kickstarter project breaks the $1 million mark. Penny Arcade have announced their newest game which will be coming to a variety of platforms including Android. Called Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness: Episode 3 , this upcoming game is a retro-style RPG which looks heavily influenced by the Final Fantasy series of games from back in the day. Not too long ago word got out that Team Meat were considering bringing Super Meat Boy to mobile devices, stating that it would be coming to "iOS and more" in terms of platforms which usually means Android as well. Today we have some new information and the first picture of what Super Meat Boy: The Game could look like for mobile devices. When it comes to cool looking indie games that feature distinct and unique visuals or gameplay, we love reporting on them. Games like Limbo are always great to see and play. A new one has landed onto the Android platform from Lycette Bros called SteamPilot. A spooky, and very creepy, platformer that made its way onto XBLA back in 2010 called Limbo may be heading to mobile platforms in the near future including Android. Developed by indie game studio Playdead, Limbo was very well received on XBLA thanks to the eerie black-and-white visuals and general unsettling atmosphere. Earlier this week we mentioned that the retro side-scrolling shooter that OrangePixel have been working on, called Neoteria, had gotten a new launch trailer and should be arriving soon. Well only a few days later we get to report that it is now available on the Android Market. |
