Inside a level While the inspiration behind a game can be anything, there is often a core concept used as the starting point. The more you built upon an idea, the more likely you are to deviate from it. Adding new elements that don’t contribute to the core idea are also common and while we… Continue reading Review: Inside A Star-filled Sky

Experience Points: Champions Online – Part 2: Gold and Silver
Until recently, Free to Play MMOs have had a really bad reputation. Technically, they still do among some folk, but considering all the “free to play” announcements in the industry the past few weeks, I’m guessing things are slowly changing. One of the major gripes people have with F2P is the (not very witty, but… Continue reading Experience Points: Champions Online – Part 2: Gold and Silver
Review: Celestial Mechanica
A trailer is a powerful thing. It can hype you up for a game so much that it can be detrimental to the actual product. I have to admit, when Kyle first linked me to Celestial Mechanica’s trailer, my reaction was “OH MY GOD WHY DOES IT LOOK SO AMAZING?!” It hit all the right… Continue reading Review: Celestial Mechanica
Review: Critical Mass
To avoid repeating myself from my DotP2012 review with “I’m a sucker for…” I’ll go with “I appreciate good puzzle games.” Although I would hardly qualify as an expert player, I’ve played a good deal of Bust-A-Move, Puyo Puyo, Magical Drop, Columns and (of course) Tetris. The first thing I thought of when I saw… Continue reading Review: Critical Mass
Experience Points: Champions Online – Part 1: Past and Present
Looking back, I’m not really sure why I ever saw the need to start playing an MMO, but there was a time when I had decided to find one to devour my time. After an onslaught of free MMOs (Dungeon Fighter hadn’t yet been released, so shush) I started playing WoW on a private server.… Continue reading Experience Points: Champions Online – Part 1: Past and Present
Review: Magic: the Gathering – Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012
I am a sucker for card games. I am usually a sucker for board games, but card games are something I enjoy much more. Of course, as a college student in Siberia Serbia (or Sibserburbia as Gregg would call it), the abysmal cost of trading card games is what makes it unlikely for me to… Continue reading Review: Magic: the Gathering – Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012
Review: BEEP
Instead of fending off aliens, demons and general apocalypse scenarios, BEEP’s humanity of the future focuses on sending little robots to do something productive, like exploration. These little robots are called BEEPs and they have various functions to aid them in their never-ending quest to explore the Cosmos. They can drive up some walls, they… Continue reading Review: BEEP
Silent Bomber Retro Review
1999 was a really long time ago. When you take a good look at how some things worked, you can consider yourself lucky because of some events. While it may be just another game, I consider myself quite fortunate for playing Silent Bomber when I had the chance. Back then, anti-piracy laws were practically nonexistent… Continue reading Silent Bomber Retro Review
