I’m supposed to explain to you what I thought about My Little Pony, a new adorable city-builder by Gameloft. I could make it really easy and say that it is a pretty charming, well-made city-builder and mini-game collection that is really nothing new. Sure, it has a nice pink coating of Pony magic all over it, but the mechanics have been seen a million times. This is par for the Gameloft course; they specialize in re-creation.

One game we have been eager to see get release by Gameloft is their spin-off of their MMORPG called Order & Chaos. However, this spin-off from that MMORPG is actually a MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) game called Heroes of Order & Chaos, a game we have talked about a few times in the past couple of months. This will be the first MOBA game to hit mobile devices and it does look promising.
As most Angry Birds players have come to expect from Rovio, their Angry Birds Seasons game will be receiving an update soon for the upcoming Christmas season and it shall be called Winter Wonderham if what AngryBirdsNest has spotted becomes a reality, which it usually does. Spotted in the iOS Game Center, the new update’s name has been seen even though it isn’t available yet.
Amazon has release new plug-ins for the Unity3D engine which will allow developers to easily integrate Amazon’s in-app purchasing and Amazon’s GameCircle APIs into games being developed using the Unity engine. While this was possible already, it certainly was a lot harder and took a lot more time to integrate these features into Unity built games that were slated for release onto Amazon’s AppStore.
There is an official Ong Bak game currently being developed by Studio HIVE called Ong Bak Tri which will be based off of the upcoming installment into the series of movies that feature Tony Jaa beating the ever living hell out of a plethora of people. Even though it is being developed by Studio HIVE, it will be published onto PC, consoles and smartphones by Immanitas Entertainment.
Back in August of this year we reported on what the next release from DotEmu would be, which turned out to be a four-in-one deal with a package called Raiden Legacy. As you may be guessing, this release will contain four Raiden games stuffed into one package for all of you arcade shooter fans to drool over. Since then all has been quite as to when Raiden Legacy would be arriving, until now that is.
Up until now the SDK for developers to use when developing their games for the new Playstation Mobile platform has been in beta and basically free. Now Sony has given the SDK the green light and instead of charging an arm and a leg for the SDK, developers are only required to pay an annual fee of $99. This allows developers to publish as many games as they like to the Playstation Mobile platform, both for Android devices and the PS Vita.
After the news of OpenFeint being shut down soon from yesterday, GREE has followed it up with a new game release called Magnus Ignis. GREE has also done what a few other developers have decided to do in the past and start a new developer account on Google Play with a slight variation of their name. Square Enix did it, EA has done it, and now GREE has done it as well. So even though this game shows up as the only game GREE has released onto Android, that is not true. It is just the first game under that account.
We don’t usually report on soundtracks to games that often and when we do it is usually in passing when talking about something like the Humble Bundle. Well if you’re a fan of chiptunes then you are in for a treat as the Aqua Kitty soundtrack is now on sale and available for download. The soundtrack for Aqua Kitty sports some absolutely great chiptune tracks, all featured in the actual Playstation Mobile game as well.
A rather unique and highly rated puzzle game from Cole Powered Games, the developers who brought us Planet Wars, has jumped from iOS and has landed on Android. MegaCity is an interesting mash-up of city building and puzzle gameplay rolled into one title which is one of those easy-to-learn but difficult-to-master type of titles.
