[GDC 2015] AD 2460 is a space strategy HTML5 browser game playable on Android devices

While GDC 2015 is usually about the newly released or upcoming titles developers want to show off, AD 2460 is a little different. This game was built entirely out of Javascript and HTML5 and was actually released a couple of months ago. Since the game is developed using HTML5, it scales to pretty much any device with a browser and that includes your Android phone or tablet. Mind you we recommend using a tablet as it provides a bit more space to have everything in front of you.

[GDC 2015] Hands-on with Spacetime Studios upcoming fast-paced MOBA Call of Champions

While one of the stories we had to wait with talking about till today was Mortal Kombat X, the other title we had to sit on until now was our hands-on time with Spacetime Studios upcoming MOBA Call of Champions. We have already gone into great detail about this game when we had our pre-GDC 2015 interview with Spacetime Studios but we didn’t get to do any sort of hands-on with the game itself until GDC 2015 actually started.

Angry Birds Stella POP! arrives with the goal of saving exotic critters

Rovio is keeping the Angry Birds train rolling forward with a new release today called Angry Birds Stella POP!. Based off of the morally conscience Angry Birds Stella game, this is a match-3 puzzle spin-off that deals with saving exotic critters. Of course taking out the evil pigs is still a part of the game as well. Mind you it is a bit ironic to save exotic creatures while getting rid of pigs which is also a creature of the world last time I checked.

[GDC 2015] Hands-on with NetherRealms’ upcoming Mortal Kombat X for Android

One of the games we were very eager to try out during GDC 2015 was NetherRealms’ Mortal Kombat X for Android devices. When we got to where the game was being shown, it was in a nice dark conference room behind closed doors with both the console version as well as the mobile version being available to play. Without wasting any time we went over to the table where all the tablets were, sat down, and began playing Mortal Kombat X while talking to one of the developers working on the project.
