Blast Breaker Online Interview with the Thailand Developers

Blast Breaker Online Interview with the Thailand Developers:

It may seem unique and surprising at first that Blast Breaker Online is developed by a studio in Thailand, a country not exactly known for its development prowess but rather the beautiful temples and tomyum soup. While the Free-to-Play market is growing at an exponential speed there, most of the titles are licensed from either China or South Korea.

Metal Slug Wars Preview

Metal Slug Wars Preview:
What do a metal slug and a regular slug have in common? Neither should come in contact with salt. Seriously though, the Metal Slug series has long been regarded as some of the best run-and-gun offerings the industry has to offer; in the ‘90s, some genre enthusiasts even dropped more than $600 on a Neo-Geo console to play the arcade classics at home. Luckily, you no longer have to give up a kidney to get access to the Metal Slug series. In fact, Metal Slug Wars, a real-time strategy (RTS) game for iOS, will be free to play.

We're not all of us perfect. We all make mistakes, right? I did last week when I didn't vet my choice for Rise and Shiny and picked Akaneiro: Demon Hunters, a single-player game with optional co-op, a game that is not only not finished but still on Kickstarter. I'm not sure how I did it, but I think it had something to do with an email I received that talked about how good the game was. In my desperation to find something new and original to play, I grabbed this one and ran with it. American McGee's studio, Spicy Horse Games, is behind the project, so that's another reason to get excited.



Luckily, the game has many great features and could, one day, feature an MMO-like option. It's also a good choice for those who enjoy games like Drakensang Online or Diablo. But there are some less exciting aspects to the game too, so you know I'll be covering those.
