Tux Rider – Android Edition, developed by Drodin, is a port of the popular linux game Tux Rider 3D. All you Tux the Penguin fans can now race down ski slopes, collecting fish, getting air and earning points while on your belly like a true penguin does. This game features great 3D graphics, fast paced action and like all things linux, is open source!
Flying Aces, developed by Sticky Coding, is an air traffic control style game where you control the flight paths of airplanes to ensure all of them land safely at the airport. This is a touch based game where you draw lines for the airplanes to follow and has been one of the more popular games of this genre for awhile and now…it’s gone open source!
Last week I posted our official announcement for positions needing to be filled here at Droid Gamers. The response was amazing! Shortly after making that post I had family arrive from out of town (hence the short gap in news recently) but I did go over all the applications sent in and I am please to announce the new members for Team DG.
Camel Games, developers of some of the best physics games available for your Android phone, has released another new game called Super Tumble. This is a great physics game with a slight twist, instead of the usual drawing lines to make objects move or shooting style game like Shoot U!, this game requires you to remove objects to completer your goal.
Fadosoft has been hard at work updating their game, Gravity Fights. While most users found the game to work perfectly, some, such as myself, couldn’t get things to move. Whether this was a fault of my own or of my N1, Fadosoft worked on the controls of the game. After playing it for a bit longer, the controls have been greatly improved it seems.
Our friends over at OrangePixel sent us a copy of their persistent scrolling platform game called DynamoKid Touch to review last week. As with all of our full reviews, we like to take our time playing the game giving it some good gameplay before coming up with our final verdicts. After playing this game for about a week I will say this: Addicting.
So as you may have noticed, I took the weekend off thinking this would be an ideal time to slip a couple days off and spend time with my family hoping it would be a slow news weekend. In reality it was a busy weekend not just for Android news but Android gaming news as well. So here is a quick rundown of gaming news over the weekend.
In the wide world of Space Invader style games that exists on the Android market, to differ from the rest of them you have to be able to offer up a unique experience, fun addictive game play and some good eye candy. A lot of the games in this genre fall short in one form or another. Revolution 2217, developed by ToJam Games is an attempt to change that.
So here we are on a fine Monday afternoon and it’s time to look back at what happened over this weekend when it comes to games and gaming on the Android platform. We will also take a look and what’s coming up for this week and there is a lot! It’s definitely going to be another busy week here at Droid Gamers and you’ll see why.
