Wii-like Motion Tennis Cast is now out for Android

On Mar 18, 2015 5:52 pm, by Ryan Ballard

Rolocule Games has announced that they have released a new Android game, called Motion Tennis Cast. This game looks like it would play much like the tennis game within Wii Sports would, as it uses motion to control what’s happening. The major difference though is in hardware, where players would only need “screens like HDTV, Smart TV or a web browser using screen cast software – Chromecast, Miracast  or AllShareCast.”. The trailer demos how it works, which is basically to open the game, cast it, and you’re off to playing virtual tennis, swinging your phone as if it were a tennis racket, while seeing the game get played in a PC browser or TV.

The press release mentioned specifically that the game will be for tablets.

[UPDATED: Game Released] Outwitters 2.0 will be arriving onto Android tomorrow complete with cross-platform multiplayer

On Mar 12, 2015 2:06 pm, by Ryan Ballard

One Man Left is the developer of the game called Outwittes, which was one of the App Stores Best Games of 2012, with over a million downloads. The quick and dirty on the game is that it’s turn based multiplayer in the form of tactical squad combat that’s played on a hex board, with the goal being that the player destroys the base of his or her opponent, without losing his/her own base in the process. Matches can be one on one, or two on two. There are four different factions to choose from, each with a unique unit.

Limbo Review: An incredible side-scroller with very few faults

On Mar 11, 2015 6:23 pm, by Ryan Ballard

Limbo is a 2D side-scrolling game released by Playdead. The premise of the game is simple, bordering on basic: players assume the role of an unnamed boy searching for his sister who’s apparently lost in Limbo. While this is fine enough of a reason (excuse?) to go off on a grand adventure, it isn’t mentioned in the game at ALL, but rather pulled from the game’s Google Play page. And to clarify this point, there was no prologue, cut scenes, epilogue, narration, subtitles, or any thing else that would advance a narrative. No story, but for the byline found on Google Play. The thing is though, this game is so good that I didn’t care. Also, not only is this the closest thing I have to a complaint, it’s my sole one at that.

Dot Heroes: Woop Woop Ninja is now on Android

On Mar 09, 2015 7:47 pm, by Ryan Ballard

Created by Ariano Games, Dot Heroes: Woop Woop Ninja is a Floppy Birds clone, with an RPG twist. There isn’t much of a story to speak of, so I’ll describe the gameplay. Players control a little black dot that wears a red headband. At the start of the game, and each subsequent level (so far as I played), the dot flies/falls through the air, inky contrail and all, only moving upward when the screen is tapped.
