We’ve reported on Star Command over the past little while from it’s Kickstarter project start to the 15 minute early gameplay rundown and everything in between. Well the developers have posted a new update over on their Kickstarter page that gives us a better idea of when Star Command will be released, what still needs to be done, and even a new video.
Fans of side-scrolling retro action arcade games have a new one to try out today called Kung Fu FIGHT!. Brought to you by Nostatic Software, the fine folks who brought us their hit Xbox Live game called Quite, Please!, Kung Fu Fight! is all about fighting the bad guys, saving the girl and being a hero with your Kung Fu style, all wrapped up in some retro style visuals.
A rather cool, and large, retro style RPG has arrived on Google Play called 9th Dawn. Developed by Valorware, who originally held a Kickstarter project to help with getting this game completed but ended up having their Kickstarter be unsuccessful, have gone ahead and kept on working on getting this game out onto Android finally. It took a bit longer but it has arrived and it was worth the wait.
A couple of days ago we posted about the onslaught of titles that would be heading our way over the next little while from Gamevil. A total of 30 games are currently slated for release on both Android and iOS and, while historically iOS usually gets them first followed by Android shortly after, there are some pretty impressive titles in their line-up including some rather big name retro games. However, right now we get a first look at a couple of new additions to Gamevil franchises that are quite popular, Zenonia 5 and Baseball Superstars 2013.
The creators of the classic first-person adventure game called Shadowgate have gone over to Kickstarter to bring a new re-imagined and revamped version out to the world and this new version will be made available on a variety of platforms including Android tablets. This inclusion of Android tablets as one of the supported platforms isn’t a stretch goal either, which is something that happens with a decent amount of these Kickstarter project. Instead, it will be released onto Android tablets when the game launches.
The indie developer behind the rather twisted and ultra-violent indie game Hotline Miami has announced that talks have been happening to bring the game to Playstation devices. Jonatan Söderström, the developer behind the game, told PocketGamer that he has been in talks with Sony to bring the game to the PS Vita and, quite possibly, to other mobile devices such as Android ones.
Square Enix has released another game onto the Google Play store today which should make old school RPG fans rather happy. Today we see that Chrono Trigger has finally made it to Android and on top of that, it looks like Square Enix may be testing out a slightly lower price tag for their premium games as well with this new release.
OrangePixel are a mainstay on Android when it comes to retro-style games and one of their previous titles, called Meganoid, was a rather challenging platformer. Well luckily for us all who had plenty of fun, and plenty of frustration, playing Meganoid, OrangePixel has released a sequel to it called Meganoid 2. Like any good sequel, Meganoid 2 is harder than the original game.
The other bit of news we dropped yesterday before running out and taking the day off was that Penny Arcade had finally released their retro-style RPG title we have been reporting on over the past few months called On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 3. Developed by TinkerHouse Games and ZeBoyd Games, the fine folks that brought us Cthulhu Saves the World, this new game is one for the true RPG fans out there.
We get a lot of unique retro-style RPG titles on Android and mobile in general. While the storylines are all different, most of the gameplay mechanics are pretty similar regardless if the RPG you’re playing is a turn-based one or an Action-RPG title. So when we first saw a new retro RPG on Google Play called Knights of Pen & Paper, we thought that this would be a cool game.
