I've just saved the planet, and I couldn't be less enthused about it. A New Beginning is a self-styled eco-thriller with a spot of time travel and science fiction thrown in for good measure. It launched in Europe a couple of ...

The folks at Ronimo Games just keep going. I would have been perfectly satisfied with the amount of post-release characters added to Awesomenauts a couple of updates ago (sorry, console versions), but the eclectic cast grows...

I don't recall exactly when management games became unpopular. One day we were mastering the systems of "Theme" this or "Tycoon" that, and almost certainly dabbling in the field of dungeon administration, but then suddenly we...

In retrospect, Rovio Entertainment collaborating with Lucasfilm seems spot on. Not so much thematically, but in terms of how both Star Wars and Angry Birds have made obscene amounts of money through merchandising. Now, t...

Excuse the weird phrasing there, but as Frictional Games writes in its latest report on Amnesia: The Dark Descent, the number of units sold for a digitally distributed game is "actually really hard to pin down." Excluding the...

Thank your lucky stars! There's a new content for Angry Birds Space. Update 1.2.2 packs a hefty bag of goodies, adding 20 levels, a brand new orange bird, and a pig boss so big he has his own gravitational pull. As you can se...

Back in July, I had a chance to chat with nerdcore rapper 8Bit Duane, and one of the things we brought up was the game he was co-creating. Action Adventure World: The Game was an opportunity for him to branch out in game dev...

The last time I played AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! - A Reckless Disregard for Gravity was during the weekend-devouring Valve PotatoFoolsDay ARG some many months ago. Developer Dejobaan Games is still keen on the Independent ...

The first day of a new job can be a daunting experience. One has to get their bearings, learn their co-workers names, figure out their role, kill or capture escaped prisoners, topple governments or placate an arrogant young d...

Remember Aquaria? Bit Blot isn't done yet, and as you can see from the new video the game is making its way to the iPad and iPad 2 this fall. Some new features and improvements over the original have been slipped in there al...

Time travel in fiction comes in two varieties. One is the sort of unexplained, mysterious force that you accept and don't question for the sake of entertainment, like in The Time Traveler's Wife or Back to the Future. The o...
