FlipSide, developed by jcstranger, is a new indie arcade game with not only a unique visual look to it, but also a bit of a unique style of gameplay as well. In this game players will need to split their attention between two characters that you’ll be controlling at the same time.
Released by Pixel Mystique, Ninjet is a new vertical arcade shooter for Android. Players will assume the role of a pilot who’s tasked with the objective of single-handedly stopping an endless alien invasion, flying something akin to a transformer. The ship is normally a starfighter, but for short periods of time can transform into a giant, sword wielding robot.
In the time we have been doing DroidGamers we have run into many types of hybrid games, some of which make you sit back in your chair and think to yourself ‘huh, there is a neat idea right there’. Well this is one of those times where that happens with this new game called Bar Oasis 2 Aftertaste 1. This is a visual novel that meshes some time management gameplay into it.
Reactor – Energy Sector Tycoon is a new tycoon style of game but not in the traditional sense. With most tycoon games you are building something, whether it is an amusement park, a zoo, or an entire city. While this is sort of true for Reactor, this particular title takes that style of gameplay and combines it with idle genre mechanics.
It always seems like games in a particular genre seem to get released or talked about all within the same time frame. For example, one week a bunch of RPGs will get released or talked about, while another week would be strategy games. It’s never planned, it just works out that way. So far this week seems to have a lot of arcade shooters and the Kings of Steam is a new one for Android devices.
If you’ve been around for the golden era of console and PC gaming, back when arcades were big and popular, arcade shooters were some of the more popular games to play. There were games like Contra, Metal Slug, and so on which you could literally waste hours playing, and many people including myself did do that. Huntdown is an upcoming arcade shooter for Android that features the same sort of style the old school titles had.
Released by Sollmo, Buddy Rush 2 is the sequel to the original Buddy Rush, and is being rolled out onto Android. Like the first one, the game’s visuals are focused on being “cute’, so the characters are all rendered with large heads on smallish bodies, in an almost doll-like fashion. All the characters, controlled by players or NPC, good or bad, are known as “buddies”.
MHGames has announced that their newest puzzler called Oddhop will be landing on Android later this Spring and have released details about what exactly will be coming with this game. This particular game takes place in more of a board game style, where players will be presented a hexagonal terrain filled with different animals.
We don’t talk about cancellations at shows too often, mainly because it really doesn’t happen too often. When it does happen, it’s usually not for a game we are watching. However, this particular cancellation is about a game we’ve been following for awhile now. One game we were pretty eager to see in action, and hopefully get some hands-on time with, was Niantic’s upcoming Pokemon GO title.
The successfully funded (Kickstarter) indie adventure game Thimbleweed Park has received a new trailer for gamers who are interested in this title to check out. The story is being developed by Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick, and features a retro look to it which is similar to adventure games from back in the day when PC titles like this were quite popular.
