Over Easy Games Cooks Up a New Endless Runner: Bomb on Bus

On Nov 13, 2014 11:34 am, by Jaymes Carter

Alex Andreadis of Over Easy Games, which is based in Melbourne, Australia, has a new game that was recently released for Android. Any fan of Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock in the early 90’s will recognize the theme behind this one. The name of the game is Bomb on Bus. It is a new endless runner that will have you causing mayhem in the midst of the streets, as you navigate your bus at top speeds, so that the bomb on the bus won’t detonate. Oh, and the name of that film starring Reeves and Bullock… was Speed. Though Over Easy Games in tongue-and-cheek deny the similarities, it is still a fun game in its own right.

If I were to mention animated movies such as The Incredibles, Toy Story, Brave, Ratatouille and Monsters University, what is the first thing that would come to mind? It would probably be Disney-Pixar and the wonderful stories and animation that they have created. If you are a fan of any of those movies you are in luck. Steel Wool Games is a new studio created by five artists that have been working in the animation industry for many years. With the aid of Ripstone Publishing, Steel Wool Games will release their first project, Flyhunter Origins this summer.

On Nov 08, 2014 1:18 pm, by Jaymes Carter

Just because the week is over doesn’t mean there aren’t  great games to be discovered. If you are in a rush and only have a few moments to get some gaming in this weekend, you should try a game called Box Wars. RM Apps is a game studio based in Germany, created by Jorg Reuss and Alex Mircer. They have a couple of apps in the Play Store, such as Belly Bird 3D, Good Night Sheep and the recently released, Box Invaders. There isn’t too much information to be found out about the studio at this time. Even their website says coming soon. So what do we know? We know that Box Invaders is a pretty good game, if you want to challenge yourself. The controls are fluid and the graphics are impressive. Though the sound in the game is sparse, it somehow fits well within the scope of the game. Box Invaders is an endless (walker) runner with a twist.
