Recently Herocraft, in conjunction with First Star Software, released a remake of the classic Boulder Dash games called Boulder Dash-XL. While this game features the same hectic style of gameplay as the classic version did from a long time ago, the visuals have been completely redone with a more 3D look to them. There are also a couple of other features that this reboot comes with to bring it more into the modern times.
The middle of each week seems to be a rather busy time for indie developers and their game releases for Android. While the much bigger game development companies out there tend to release their games on Thursdays and Fridays, mid-week is a good time for the smaller companies and teams to get their goods out onto Google Play.
Like last week, this week seems to be one of those weird weeks where there are more games sales going on in the first half of the week then the later part of it. On top of the Star Wars Pinball sale we have already posted about today, there seems to be quite the numbers of good Android games on sale right now.
The Green Throttle gaming system, which consists of a controller and an application that basically turns the Android device it is installed on into a console system, has had six new games added to its catalog of supported titles. This includes the ever popular Duke Nukem 3D game for those of you who just like to shoot stuff… a lot of stuff.
The long awaited space sim game Star Command which had a rather successful Kickstarter campaign, will be arriving onto iOS on May 2nd. So what about us Android gamers? Well as much as the company behind Star Command wants to release the Android version at the same time, we will unfortunately have to wait until June 2013 to get our hand on their game.
It is that time again where another week is coming to a close. Even though we had a bunch of sales for Android games start on Monday, some of them are still going on right now. However, there are additional games that have gone on sale starting today so get ready to score some more deals.
One game we are eagerly looking forward to getting released is a new retro style game from OrangePixel called Heroes of Loot. We’ve actually talked about this game a few times already but if you happened to miss our previous coverage for Heroes of Loot, here is a quick rundown of what this game is about.
Looks like Kairosoft has two more games up their sleeves. Recently released on Kairo Park (which is the mobile gaming center Kairosoft uses for the two main Japanese carriers DoCoMo and Softbank), the two new games are a farming simulator, roughly translated as Firmament Hectare Farm, and a pirate themed adventure RPG also roughly translated as Great Pirate Quest Island.
Developer and publisher of a variety of retro style RPG titles on Android, Kemco has a pretty decent sized catalog of games to sift through. Well the company has announced that all over their games on Google Play and Amazon’s AppStore are on sale starting today for $0.99 for a limited time.
Herocraft, along with First Star Software, have released a reboot to the classic Boulder Dash game called Boulder Dash-XL. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Boulder Dash in general, this series has been around for some time already on early console systems and even Android has a few remakes and reboots already.
