The rather popular pixel-art laden PC horror game called Home is currently under development to receive the porting treatment to other platform. Right now iOS is confirmed as to being one of the new platforms Home will be arriving on but Mac and Android are also in the running as well.
Naught, a nifty looking side-scroller by Blue Shadow Games will have you twisting your way through many different levels in the hopes of grabbing diamonds and seeds. The controls are relatively fun. You can choose to use the accelerometer or buttons on the screen to tilt the landscape, forcing your little black and white dude to move one way or the other. At first the controls feel clunky or poorly tuned. It took me a while to try out all three control styles — my favorite eventually becoming the on-screen pair of buttons — before I felt comfortable. It’s a neat mechanic but it’s essentially the same game we’ve seen before.You’ll recognize the gimmick pretty quickly, but not until after you’ve had some fun working through some different levels.

Square Enix has become quite active on mobile platforms in recent times, churning out original mobile titles as well as ports of their older hits. One such new original mobile product is Demons’ Score, a rhythm-based action game where you duel against the demons of the underworld. Costing a hefty $20 (for a mobile game at least), is it worth your money? Read on to find out.
So, the year of 2012 is about to wrap up and the Mayans were wrong about everything coming to an end which was nice of them to be wrong. A lot has happened over the past year and we have continued to grow not only as a site but as a community as well here at DroidGamers. We’ve picked some great new staff such as Beau Hindman, Himmat Singh, Larry the Incredible Edible squirrel and more.
Last week the OUYA developer units were sent out and the company decided to unbox one on video in order to give us all a bit of a quick rundown as to what these developer units look like and come with.
