Cut the Rope can now be played on your web browser (for free) as an HTML 5 port

Posted: 13 Jan 2012 10:40 AM PST

Cut the Rope (TMA Review), one of the most popular and addictive physics puzzle game on the iPhone and iPad, has made its way to a web browser as a HTML 5 port thanks to a partnership between Microsoft and ZeptoLabs.

Cut the Rope is an immediate favorite for anyone who plays it. It's as fun as it is adorable. So we had an idea: let's make this great game available to an even bigger audience by offering it on the web using the power of HTML5.

To do this, Microsoft's Internet Explorer team partnered with ZeptoLab (the creators of the game) and the specialists at Pixel Lab to bring Cut the Rope to life in a browser. The end result is an authentic translation of the game for the web, showcasing some of the best that HTML5 has to offer: canvas-rendered graphics, browser-based audio and video, CSS3 styling and the personality of WOFF fonts.

There are currently 27 levels available and the game can be played on most modern browsers that support HTML 5, including Chrome, Firefox and Safari. To play Cut The Rope for free online, head over to www.cuttherope.ie and enjoy more On Nom while your boss isn’t watching. A “Behind the Scenes” video of how this HTML port came about can be found after the break.

Kaptain Brawe: A Brawe New World (Full) in Review – An old style point-and-tap from the kings of Hidden Object

As I noted pretty recently, G5 Entertainment can safely be called the reigning kings of both Hidden Object and Time Management genres. You can imagine my surprise then when shortly before Christmas, I received an invitation from them to review Kaptain Brawe: A Brawe New World (Full) – a traditional point-and-tap adventure that feels like it's plucked right out from the golden age of the genre. Still expecting that something's amiss, I dove into the game.

Super Crate Box in Review – Just One More Time, Please…

Posted: 13 Jan 2012 05:44 AM PST

There's no question Super Crate Box is a silly game.  You basically run around one of three levels collecting crates and killing monsters to stay alive.  It's like a side view FPS with no fancy graphics and no point.  The funny thing is that it is also one of the most addictive games I've played in quite a while, and that says a lot since I've spent almost every day for the past week playing Treasures of Montezuma 3.  There's something about the simplicity of the game combined with the retro pixel graphics that to me makes it a whole lot more interesting than the previously released Muffin Knight, a game clearly inspired by this one.  All I know is I'm glad to be part of the crate collecting revolution.
