Welcome to the world of game development! Game Dev Story takes you down the route of running your own games company. Be prepared to test the waters with different types of game genres which can be mix matched to your personal taste but be warned you can get it wrong and create a terrible game and send your company plummeting into debt.
Well it seems the developer Get Set Games is gearing up to release their hit iOS game, Mega Jump, this week. Earlier in the month we reported on this great game coming to Android ‘sometime this month’ and have since waited patiently. Well the wait is almost over as we’ve gotten tipped off that it will be landing on the market this week.
Seems EA Mobile has another title they are planning to release onto the Android Market this holiday season. First it was the much anticipated Need for Speed: Shift followed by The Sims 3. Both games were exclusive on certain Android devices until last week when they landed on the Market. Next seems to be Monopoly.
One of the winning games in the Action/Arcade category in the Android Developers Challenge #2 back in late 2009 was Moto X Mayhem. After winning 3rd place and a cool $25,000 in prize money, nothing but a gentle breeze game from the developer regarding the game being released. Project was thought to be dead… or was it?
Want to play a racing game on your Android phone but feel like getting back to your old school arcade roots? I’m not talking about some black and weird off-white color hand held system but the arcade units you used to sit down in with a steering wheel that usually didn’t fully work and a shifting knob that just flopped around half the time.
GetJar promised that at least three days this week we would see some big named, full version games coming to Android via GetJar and sure enough today’s announcement is a fairly big one. Zynga’s Mafia Wars for Android is now available exclusively on GetJar. I’m pretty sure I don’t need to go into detail as to what Mafia Wars is.
While we see an onslaught of awesome games coming this holiday season, early 2011 is shaping up to be almost as good for Android gaming. Another game coming early next year is Samurai II: Vengeance by Madfinger Games. Originally developed for iOS, the developer announced today it will be available for Android shortly.
Ubiquitous Media Inc’s survival game called “The Whoops! Desert Island” has been released, exclusively in Korean, at least for now. Sort of the same way Game Dev Story came out, first in Asia then translated and released globally. The point of the game is that you’re shipwrecked on an island and you have to survival.
We reported yesterday that GT Motor Racing Academy was starting to show up on the mobile version of Gameloft’s web-based store. Today we now have a semi-live page on the actual desktop web-based store. Some of it isn’t loading but if you click the Buy Now link, it does go to payment processing so you should be able to buy it, if not soon.
