You may have noticed that we haven’t posted much the past couple of days. That was because we had plenty of meetings over the past couple of days as well as some events to go to. Here in Las Vegas, GameStop held their annual expo which is sort of like a mini E3 and believe it or not, this year’s expo had a decent amount of mobile news.
It is about that time once again to round up this week’s Android games that are on sale right now. While we didn’t do one mid-week this week due to covering Gamescom 2013, we do get to do a round-up for the end of this week. This week’s list isn’t the biggest in the world but each game on here is a pretty good title.
Remember the old school cartoon called Astro Boy from back in the day that you may have watched as a child? Well Astro Boy has made his debut onto Android in a new game from Animoca called Astro Boy Dash. As you are probably guessing from the name, this is an endless running arcade game where you will be in control of Astro Boy.
Back in June we brought word that Konami’s would be bringing the first full licensed Contra game to Android called Contra: Evolution. The porting / remaking of the original Contra game was done by CocoaChina/Chukong who secured the rights to handle this project and since our last article about Contra: Evolution making its way to Android, the game has already been released onto iOS. It is, however, now available for Android users as well.
Since Gamescom 2013 is Europe’s premier gaming industry conference and France happens to be a partner country for this event, there is a service called ‘Le Game’ which helps promote French game development companies to the international crowd. Le Game has come up with a bundle type of sale to help accomplish this where there will be a total of three bundles available for a short period of time.
Phantom Fox Studios have released their first game onto Android called FireFly. This minimalistic style puzzle game features visuals similar to what we’ve seen in other games currently available such as Heroes of Many and Oscura with the black landscape but bright single color backgrounds.
One thing Android, and mobile in general, have vast amounts of are endless running games. Since he genre’s inception, everyone and their mother have been making these games trying to take a piece of the endless running pie. So finding one that is a little more unique than the other current endless runners out there can be hard to do. Retro Runners by Countryside Games happens to be one of those unique endless runners.
One game that was rather popular back in the arcade days was a game called Buster Bros by Capcom. Eventually there was a series of games released under the Buster Bros name for different consoles as well and now we have a sort of tribute to the franchise with Jungle Pang. Developed by Snowball Software (the fine folks who brought us Attack of the Wasabi Peas), Jungle Pang is the bikini wearing female version of Buster Bros.
It’s about that time once again where we round-up all the Android games on sale right now over on Google Play so you can easily take advantage of some good deals when picking up a new game or two. Right now Cave’s sale on their Bullet Hell shooters is still going on although that will be ending soon. However there are some other good game to pick up right now as well.
Sometimes you don’t need a crazy large game for a release to be great or one with high-end 3D visuals. Sometimes just the simplest of games can be the best of games and Dots: A Game About Connecting is one of those simple games that ends up being incredibly addictive and fun to play.
