Recently Google did that corporate restructuring of all their companies, creating a new top-tier company called Alphabet.

Today the Ingress developer has announced that they have received funding to the tune of $30 million from Google, The Pokemon Company, and Nintendo. It is a pretty interesting mix.

PolyBlast is an arcade shooter that’s coming soon to Android. The gameplay is akin to the classics, such as Galaga, where players fire projectiles upward from the bottom of the screen.

I came across a video of Cloud Chasers a few weeks ago and I was really impressed. Delving a bit more into the story behind the game, I became even more intrigued.

Gamers are used to developers crying foul when a game is pirated by users, but in an odd turn of events, independent developer, North Pole Command Centre Limited, was the victim of another developer rather than consumers. According to a forum post by a Reddit user with the screen name, “funkst2002,” Amazon denied their submission for their game, Pocket Wrestling. Having previously published the game to Google Play, the user was confused by the rejection, inspiring them to conduct an investigation of their own.
Itror (standing for In The Right Order) is a new memory game that’s been released by Markus Bodner. Players will be looking to memorize and replicate the order in which they were shown a a list of various irons, overlaying colored tiles.

The lack of consumer ownership of digital content has long been a precarious condition that gamers have had to accept if they wished to purchase and play their favorite software titles. Be it an unfavorable end-user license agreement (EULA) or digital rights management (DRM), corporate entities have endeavored to convey that consumers do not own digital content, but rather license the content for an indeterminate period of time, during which the rights holder can terminate said license with impunity. Don’t believe me? Here is a snippet of Rockstar Games’ lengthy EULA.

When I came across Subterfuge, I didn’t quite know what to expect. On many levels, I still don’t. The game comes from a team of game creators that made the games World of Goo, Casey’s Contraptions and Flower Garden. Ron Carmel and Noel Llopis have created what appears to be a very cerebral multiplayer-only game. What really has me anticipating this game is the extremely well produced trailer that sets up the game play. The game looks challenging, totally engrossing, has a clean and crisp UI and will be coming to Android/iOS next week.
