Back in March of last year we talked about a WipeOut-style futuristic racing game heading our way later that year called Flashout 3D from Jujubee. Well the April release date came and went, along with many other months after that, with no game being released. Almost a year later, Flashout 3D has finally made its appearance onto the Google Play store.
So there are a few games currently on sale right now over on Google Play that some of you, our readers, might want to get your hands on. There is only a few titles right now on sale but luckily some of them are actually pretty solid games for a pretty good price.
Luma Arcade and Kerosene Games have a total of three more games that are currently under development and slated for release onto Android when they are done. Racer looks to be a joint project between Luma Arcade and Kerosene Games while The Harvest and Core appear to be from Luma Arcade themselves.
Polarbit has decided to release their newest racing game Cracking Sands onto Google Play with a new version that is fully playable and with all the tracks available as well. You also have access to all the game modes that arrive in the paid version as well. So what’s different about this free version of their combat kart racing game?
Real Racing 3 has not yet launched on Android, but as some of you may have already known, it is out in Australia and New Zealand for iOS. After receiving widespread condemnation from the mobile gaming community (including us) for an abhorrent timer-based freemium structure, it looks like EA is listening to feedback (gasp!) and making some tweaks.
A lot of people are a little more than agitated at the fact EA’s upcoming Real Racing 3 game has gone freemium and that it is a time-based system players will have to contend with when we did our more detailed look at this system for Real Racing 3. It is a good game, it just has a horrible freemium system but should you decide to get the game anyways, there are a few supercars you might want to check out.
By now, you would’ve known that Real Racing 3 is due to be a freemium game employing a timer-based mechanic. I had my reservations about it, but reading the initial impressions of journalists from established gaming publications regarding the way the timer-system worked, I thought it won’t be so bad after all.
For those of you who used to spend hours and hours playing video games in arcades in the not so far gone past, you may remember how the racing games used to be back then. Well a two-man team of game developers wants to bring that arcade racing experience back to life across multiple platforms with Android being one of them with their game The 90s Arcade Racer.
So we have seen a couple of trailers, a few developer diary videos and a variety of screenshots regarding EA’s upcoming Real Racing 3 game. We’ve also been hit with the news that Real Racing 3 will be a free-to-play game where players will be able to buy the game’s secondary currency, Gold Coins, in order to speed up vehicle repair and upgrade times.
