10 New App Store Games To Watch [Feb. 14 - 20]

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 06:42 AM PST

It feels like it's 1985 again with this week's lead-in, Back To The Future Ep. 1 HD (yeah, you thought I was going to mention that silly RTS first, didn't you?) I was a huge fan of the series that spawned this adventure game, and the inclusion of Christopher Lloyd to reprise his role as Doc Brown is just icing on the cake. Oh, and I suppose there's that Starfront: Collision that's been making some waves as well, huh? If you're into RTS games, this is probably THE iPhone game to get right now. On the other hand, if you like your games a bit more simple and lighthearted, you'd do well to check out Zombie Runaway or Pixel Pig, a couple of casual games that could bring out the juvenile in all of us.

The Telltale of Hector – Straandlooper to team up with the well-known adventure games maker

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 06:39 AM PST

There is luck, and then again – there is hard work. The App Store has been a place where many a developer has tried to find his fortune, though quite few have really succeeded. And while not a lot of folks can boast the millions of dollars made like Doodle Jump – BE WARNED: Insanely Addictive! or Angry Birds, some get their break in a different way. We've seen a number of iOS dev teams gobbled up by big-time names, with Chillingo being one of the more recent celebrated acquisitions. Others get a well-deserved deal and partner up with big-names to reach new heights in their endeavours.

And I'm happy to announce that one such deal has just been made public. Straandlooper, developer of the superb HECTOR: Badge of Carnage Ep1 (TMA Review), have teamed up with one of the leaders in the adventure games market – Telltale Games – to bring their adventure from the iOS to PC and Mac. Even better, episodes 2 and 3 are already in production and will be released later this year along with the re-release of episode 1 for the medium screen.

I will try and secure the interview with Straandlooper soon, meanwhile, make sure you read the hilarious semi-official press-release from the guys after the gap.
