GameFly is going to get in on the mobile gaming market.

 

GameFly just announced that they would soon be offering iOS and Android apps as well as offering an Android game storefront soon. Instead of making their own games from scratch GameFly is targeting developers who are currently working on games of their own, but are looking for someone to help get their name out there. Basically anyone who wants someone to help them publish and get their game promoted better. It is expecting their services to start up this fall and hopes that they can get all developers big and small interested in their Android Game store so that you will have a one stop shop for your Android device for when it comes to games. I personally wonder how well the Android Gamestore will do with currently available games. Since Android already has two different stores, Google Play and the Amazon app store. It will be interesting to see exactly what they plan to bring to the table to make them stand out.

Gaming on the Go: MotoHeroz

This game got a brand new update recently and with that update the game went free. No word if it will stay free. The concept is that you are driving off road to a goal at the end. Well lets just say off road is a bit of an understatement. Check out the video below to see a better explanation than what I can give. This game is available in two versions iPhone and iPad. I am not sure if there is an Android version. Leave a comment below if you have an Android device and can confirm that it does exist for Android.

 

 

 

Infinity Blade Dungeons: The Diablo III for iPad!

Epic games, the company that has brought us both Infinity Blade and Infinity Blade II have released information about a new project that they are working on. From the official trailer to the gameplay describtion it seems that we will have ourselves a beautifully done dungeon crawler.

Gameplay is described as very touchscreen friendly, something you would ecpect from an Epic games project. As with the other Infinity blade titles simply making slashing marks on the enemy creates basic attack moves but other gestures around your character will create special attacks and magic effects. For example drawing a simple circle around your character will cause a spinning attack.

This wouldn't be a dungeon crawler if it didn't have loot, and it apparently has lots of it from head, neck, chest, puts and legs, you will find any type of armor upgrades you will need. The one thing that you will not find is weapons. The uniqueness of this shows in the fact that there is a mini game where you create your own weapons. This mini game looks extremely well done and depending on how well you do with the mini game depends on the quality and attributes of the weapon. The better and faster you make the weapon the better stats it will have and less you have to spend points on making it stronger. You can also add gems to these weapons which determines the type of magic moves that you can do while using this weapon. I think this sounds really cool and should be a heck of a lot of fun itself!

Epic has also created this game the same as they have their others being able to play on the go or when time is short and you want to pass some time. Each dungeon should be completable within less than 10 minutes each. They are also created to be non linear so that you can explore to find hidden treasures and armor as well as other surprises along your path.



It is rumored that we could see this game within a few months. With the amount of info and the detail that this game is already showing I wouldn't be surprised if this game doesn't come around sooner rather than later.

Gaming on the Go: Extinction Squad.

 

Adult Swim has released another fun time wasting game for the iphone. Basic consept is that you and your team of zoological defenders have to rescue the endangered and helpless animals from around the world. And how better to do this than to hold out a trampoline for them to bounce to safety. Yeah I know just watch the gameplay video above. It's definitely a fun time waster.

Gaming on the go: Swordigo

This weeks game for iOS is Swordigo which as of this writing is free in the app store.

Swordigo is a mix between your standard 2D side scrolling platformer and Zelda.  The graphics are neat but not amazing, but still look good on the retina display.  The gameplay is highly addicting and reminds you a lot of Zelda.  You have spells, weapons, you level up and your health is a series of hearts, sound familiar yet?  Areas have Boss fights, surprises, hidden chests all around, and small towns which you can teleport to and from as you wish.  You can also get side quests from the people that you come in contact with as well as purchase upgrades at the shops that are scattered throughout the game.  It is a definite recommendation of mine especially since it is free.  Tell your free time I said sorry...
