Zilla — Sun, 06 Jun 2010 05:45:10 +0000

Hector Episode 1: Badge of Carnage: We Negotiate with Terrorists (no comment about the title), is the first true original Point-and-Click adventure game for the iPhone in vein of the LucasArts / Sierra games from the early games of PC gaming (Forget about the terrible 1112 adventure game also originally made for the iPhone). And let me go right out and say it — Hector Episode 1 is great — and there is no other game quite like it on ... More...

Ever since we got our hands on the iPad, we refused to touch our iPhones (except when talking to people we don’t hate), the 1024 x 768 screen is just so much nicer than the tiny iPhone and graphics on the iPad almost seemed superior to the PSP and DS (pay attention to the word almost); hoping to find some hardcore gaming experiences on this new gadget, we got our hands on Babylonian Twins HD, after our satisfying experience with ...

Square’s Chaos Rings on the iPad — the Age of Hardcore Gaming on Apple Devices Begins

JetFable — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 03:54:39 +0000

We haven’t been fans of serious gaming on the iPhone — first of all, the longevity of the battery power literally sucks; secondly, the screen is too small; and the third major point being that the lack of any physical controller options throw any serious action gaming out the window. Sure we have played games on the iPhone, we’ve done that a lot, we have even developed games on it – but we went for that magic 5 min that ... More...

Good Tips are Hard Not to Share

Zilla — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 03:50:43 +0000

f JetFable hasn’t dissuaded you from entering the App market, here are some genuinely good tips from Imagini Studios (Maker of Harbor Master) posted in TouchArcade. It makes a good read but to sum it up for you lazy bums: 1) Fast Prototyping 2) Icons (Just look at the LOVE that went into the Icon design)

So, You Want to be an iPhone Developer?

Your first foray into the app store, blunder is probably the more appropriate word. In this series of articles, I am going to discourage you from trying… kidding. I am actually going to share my experiences and insight from my own development of Summation and upcoming projects, and try my best to help.

1) If you are doing this to get rich, give up now. The app store is already flooded with shovelware, and occasionally even good titles just don’t catch ... More...

Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor – 5 out of 4 stars

I was kidding about the stars. The first official AGG iPhone Game review, except I tend to think of these as anecdotes of my favorite past-time, not a review, for an actual review please go to a more reputed (yet infinitely less awesome) site where a game like this would get a 8.9 (where are they deducting the points from?).

Just 2 things:

1) This game is Castlevania meets Bad Mojo. ... More...
