Jetpack Jinx Review: Cute, fun and only slightly annoying

Jetpack Jinx is a game that we’re all familiar with. You control your cute little character as it jumps up, and up, and up and try to keep it going until he simply cannot go up anymore. The gems you collect as you rise keep you going like a sort of perpetual motion machine, but the fun often turns into frustration. Is it fun to attempt to best your own score by continually making your character jump higher and higher? Sure, in a primitive sort of way, sort of like playing with jacks or climbing a tree. The problem is that, thanks to today’s bloated market, I have no idea if this game was made for children or just for incredibly stoned adults.

Fly a planet sized battle station and dominate the universe in upcoming game Battle Moon 2075

There is a new Indie Game Developer on the block and that’s the Austin, Texas based company Paralarc. Paralarc was created this year and consists of a few programmers whose focus is bringing free and intense games to the Android market. Paralarc believes that even though a free game with IAP’s has proven to be a working model, they also believe that any content that can be purchased should not limit the player form having a great gaming experience and should be available to be earned through the skill of the player. To prove that Paralarcs’ first release will be an Android game called Battle Moon 2075 and it is scheduled to be released in May.
