• Out of the Frying Pan… Radiangames Inferno [Review]

    Radiangames continues its beautiful shooter series on Xbox Live Indie Games with the third release in the series, Inferno. We loved the first release JoyJoy, but weren’t too keen on the follow-up Crossfire… so the great news is that Inferno is pretty much a maze-orientated version of JoyJoy.
    With some great level design, gorgeous visuals and [...]

  • So We’ve Got This Thing Called a Forum…

    So get this, true story, there are these things all around the world wide web (the internets!) that are called forums. They’re termed after the ancient Roman political conferences where all the senators would gather in a “forum” to discuss issues regarding their society and laws.

    When Falcon Heene aka Balloon Boy lifted off into the sky and consequently found himself all over the news channels, people the world over felt horrified for that little boy.

    Say What You See [Review]

    I first heard about Say What You See from friends across the pond. This iPhone game from British indie devs Big Ideas Corp is knocking powerhouses like Bejeweled and Plants Vs. Zombies off the UK charts.
    Gameplay: Say What You See presents a canvas with a music festival scene, and asks players to find band and [...]

    Fish Squid Time Machine Vs Fish Fish Bang Bang [Dual Review]

    During the month of July, two indie titans battled it out to claim the Indie Kombat crown. Farbs (of Captain Forever fame) and Rob Fearon (Squid Yes, Not So Octopus) swapped game graphics, with both combatants given the task of creating a game using a combination of the opponent’s and his own stylings.
    The results appeared [...]

    Revenge is a Dish Best Served Diced… Shank [Review]

    If you ever decide to look up the definition of ‘cool as fuck’, you’ll obviously find this writer’s suave and elegant face starting back at you. But soon, I’m going to have competition for that particular position – and if it comes down to a fight for the right, I will most likely run in [...]

    Not So Breezy… Breeze [Review]

    The last time I was utilizing the wind to blow a flower around, it was a calm, relaxing experience provided by ThatGameCompany’s Flower,  set in lush open meadows with gorgeous sights to see. Breeze also features a flower the and the power of the wind, but this is a far from relaxing experience.
    Breeze is simple [...]

    Ruling With an Astronomical Fist… Star Ruler [Review]

    When I was first given my review copy for Star Ruler just over a week ago I knew that I was in for a big game. Like Victoria II before it, I understood that this was going to be a hugely epic strategy game that was going to take far more time than I had [...]

    So Near Yet Solar… Solar Struggle [Review]

    From the looks of that trailer earlier in the month, I was in for a treat when booting up Solar Struggle. It looked utterly stunning compared to the Xbox Live Indie Games back catalogue, and I was hoping the gameplay would match this level of polish.
    On a certain level, it does a pretty decent job. [...]

    The Calm Before the Swarm… Swarm Arena [Review]

    I’ve played a huge number of arena shooters in my time, so encountering a fresh concept I’ve never seen before always gets me intrigued. Swarm Arena sees you taking control of a virtual organism, gathering together a swarm of brightly-glowing cells and firing them off at other organisms. It’s like a neon-fused fight for survival [...]

    The Next Huge iOS Hit…’Monster Dash’ [Review]

    My, my…how Halfbrick manages to develop so well for the iOS platform is beyond me. Luckily, since I’m a gamer and not a developer, I can live with it. After the monstrous success of their hit Fruit Ninja, Halfbrick has returned to iOS with Monster Dash — an action game featuring main character Barry Steakfries [...]
