A Mortician's Tale By: Laundry Bear Games Inc. Three months ago, the only grandparent I ever knew passed away and, even though she lived close to me, she was buried abroad. As someone who's bad at taking spontaneous trips, I made the poor decision not to attend her funeral. Without that closure, my brain hasn't fully acknowledged her passing and I also haven't truly mourned. So I understand firsthand how important it…
Humbug By: Dunderbit Earlier today, I read a sort of post mortem from Radiangames' Luke Schneider about his recent release of Slydris 2, which I've been pretty obsessed with over the last week. In it, he talks about how stressful it is to release a free-to-play game on the App Store, especially as a solo dev. Instead of creating a game, feeling good about it and selling it to people, the developer…

Slydris 2 By: Radiangames While I adore my iPad and all the adventure games I've played on that nice big screen, my first love is still my iPhone. It's basically glued to my hand, so by default any games that easily play with one hand in portrait mode are going to get more of my attention. And that means that I'm always on the lookout for relaxed, endless puzzle games that can…

Golf Peaks By: Lukasz Spierewka / Afterburn Games I have a strange relationship with golf. I enjoyed playing miniature golf as a kid on family outings. And I've even tried some regular golf and didn't find it completely terrible. I still wouldn't make it a hobby, though. And you wouldn't be able to pay me to watch someone else play the sport. That said, I acknowledge that it translates well to video…
