Games You Haven't Heard Of: Part 1 Posted: 13 Apr 2018 05:17 PM PDT I decided to run through my games library and find games that are fun yet somewhat unknown/unpopular. Alas, it turns out that great games tend to be popular. So, I at least tried to avoid games that everyone has heard of. Of course, this means my list favors premium games. I also tried to avoid games with extensive media coverage...and probably failed. [link] [comments] | ||
[Sale] Implosion: Never Lose Hope is $0.99/£0.89 Posted: 13 Apr 2018 06:26 PM PDT Implosion: Never Lose Hope is on sale for $0.99/£0.89 from today until the 16th of April, down from $9.99/£8.99. One of the best games on mobile with a control system that is so simple but brilliantly executed. The first chapter is free to play; if you like what you see the whole game can be purchased in-app. I rarely rave about mobile games but this is a fantastic offer for a great game.

5 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 51) Posted: 13 Apr 2018 05:01 AM PDT Welcome back, fellow AndroidGamers ;) Let's get straight to the game recommendations, shall we! Am I wrong about these games? Let's have a friendly discussion in the comments. New to these posts? Check out the first one from 51 weeks ago here. The games games are "ranked" somewhat subjectively from best to worst, so take the ranking for what it is. Let's go!BombSquad [Game Size: 232 MB] (free)Genre: Multiplayer / Bomberman-like / Party Game - Online tl;dr review: With up to 8-player online and local multiplayer, a VR version, controller support, a large amount of game-modes and plenty of hilarious animations, BombSquad might just be the perfect party game to play with a few friends. I really enjoyed playing the game again this week (played it first on Ouya back in 2013), and although the Android version has a high amount of ads, you can remove them through a $3 iAP, which also unlocks more game modes and more. An easy recommendation, especially if you have a controller. Google Play: Here First Impressions / Review: Here Will Hero [Game Size: 117 MB] (free)Genre: Arcade / Casual - Offline tl;dr review: Playable both in landscape and portrait mode, Will Hero is a visually pleasing casual arcade side-scroller with lots of character upgrades, skins, and even dungeons, all of which differentiates Will Hero from typical endless runners. I've previously played another fantastic game by the same developers, The Little Fox, and Will Hero is just as fun and well designed. Monetization happens mostly through incentivized video ads and iAP that enables us to unlock skill upgrades faster. Google Play: Here First Impressions / Review: Here Foolball [Total Game Size: 198 MB] (free)Genre: Sports / Silly - Offline tl;dr review: A silly singleplayer and local-multiplayer sports game where our objective is to get the fool (a jester) into the quidditch-like goal as the King watches us play the epic game of Foolball! The game monetizes through forced ads that can be skipped after 5 seconds, and there's currently NO way to disable these ads through an iAP, which is my main complaint with the game. Overall a neat but infuriating pixel-art game to play alone or with a friend. Google Play: Here First Impressions / Review: Here Bomber Friends [Total Game Size: 119 MB] (free)Genre: Action / Bomberman-like - Offline / Online tl;dr review: A Bomberman version for mobile that has controller & Android TV support, 2-8 player multiplayer, as well as 300 singleplayer levels? Count me in! The game concept is as fun as it has always been, controls work surprisingly great on touch, and with the added progression through character upgrades, there's a reason to keep playing too. The only two downsides are that the progression system means you'll sometimes be "unfairly" matched in multiplayer, and that there is a high amount of ads unless you remove them through the $2 iAP. Google Play: Here First Impressions / Review: Here Mafia Revenge [Total Game Size: 606 MB] (free)Genre: Shooter / Real-time PVP - Online tl;dr review: A competitive 1vs1 PVP shooter where you sit in a car being controlled by your NPC-helper, as you shoot at your Mafia opponent in his/her own car. The game reminds me a lot of Battle of Arrow, just in cars instead of on horseback, and I particularly liked that the game requires some actual aiming skill to be good at. With that said, however, there have been several reports of cheaters at higher ranks, and the game is pay2progress/win, as you can unlock better weapons through chests bought for real life money. If you're slightly interested, I'd still check it out, as the game is fun and very well made over all - just be aware of the potential issues at high ranks and iAP aspect.

Would you want me to start a paid game review series based on your choice? Posted: 13 Apr 2018 05:55 AM PDT I already have quite a large collection of paid games and wanted to put it to a bit more use rather than just looking pretty in my library. So, how it would work would be every week I select few paid games from the store with different genres and make a poll. Then you people tell me which one to play/make a review on. For the post itself, I was thinking maybe a 200-300 word writeup describing the pros and cons of the game. I would love to hear suggestions regarding the idea. [link] [comments] | ||

GeForce Now on Android mobile - Thoughts? Posted: 13 Apr 2018 02:30 AM PDT With the advent of mobile SoCs on par with the Tegra X1 (which powers the Shield TV 2017), namely the SD845, and desktop tools like Samsung Dex or any other USB-C to video out solution, getting Nvidia's GeForce Now streaming service running on non-Tegra Android devices would seem to be the next logical step to bring "PC gaming" to the masses and push the boundaries of what's considered possible on mobile (not to mention get around the cost barrier to entry of PC gaming). While the Tegra X1 is capable of stunning visuals (see the Nintendo Switch), and theoretically the 845's Adreno 630 ought to be able to deliver similar results, there's still a notable lack of quality desktop-oriented games available on mobile. This deficiency is notable when it comes to furthering mobile desktop solutions like Dex, Project Linda et al as that remains on of the few significant drawbacks to moving one's workflow purely mobile. GeForce Now would handily address this. To me this is an exciting prospect, but I would like to hear what others think about this sort of development. Would access to such a service be enough to get you to ditch your desktop or gaming laptop and move to a mobile-centric setup? I've called for Nvidia's feedback on Twitter regarding this, and if you'd like to add your voice, feel free to piggyback on my tweet here: https://twitter.com/nickthaskater/status/984717994629541888?s=20 Thanks for your feedback!

[Android] It's here but can you find it? - My first puzzle game Posted: 13 Apr 2018 06:54 AM PDT Hey guys, I released my first puzzle game, here on Play Store. It took me 2 months to develop the game and it's finally out. The game is about finding or making the word here in each level. There are total 50 levels in the game and each level has its own design and logic. The game is minimal and simple looking, while the levels require your brain to think something different and outside the box in each one of them. The game begins simple, however, the difficulty increases with the level number. With all kinds of puzzles, the game requires you to think about several ways to solve the levels. Each level gives you 3 hints to help you if you get stuck. I released it 2 days back and the reviews from my friends and users have been great so far. The game binds their interest and is very convenient to play anywhere anytime. Now, I wish to share it with you guys now and would like to receive any suggestions, feedback or criticism! It would help me a lot! I hope you all enjoy it. :) Thank you!

Quick question about Record Agarest of War Posted: 13 Apr 2018 03:28 PM PDT TL;DR - what does the star next to my save file mean? I can't find the answer anywhere so I hope someone can help. I decided to get back into it after a 3 year hiatus and loaded up my save files. I know I got really far into it but I haven't completed the True ending. I have no idea how far I've actually gone in the game and there's some save files that have a star next to it. I'm not sure if thats the New game+ file or what. It's been a while and I don't remember much of what I did. [link] [comments] | ||

[DEV] Zarsthor — Arcade Space Shooter Posted: 13 Apr 2018 04:58 AM PDT Hello, today I had released my 5th game, it's a simple asteroid space shooter, but not only, our hero decide go into galaxy adventure, story is more complicated than that, but I don't want to spoiler. To be honest it's pretty strange, and got some philosophical concept/future. In-game we can buy upgrades, unlock new ships, we got 40+ gameplay levels and a lot more, we got levels with astronauts, levels with protecting planet, endless mode (with online scoreboard), we got various types of asteroids. Game don't got IAP, got ads (but they won't be spamming user). Not sure how long it took me to make this game, I'm just 19 year old newbie, during developing Zarsthor (it's my 5th game) I got a break for developing other game + I got no time (school), game is made in Unity, C# + some JS (WebGL), game should run on All Androids 4.1 (in settings you can change controls, quality settings). If you got any questions, feel free to ask, I will answer them all :-} Have fun. [link] [comments] | ||
