Another Difference game! Wait, make that two! Kongregate hasn’t seen one of these in a while. Despite the simplistic nature of these types of games, they are always fun to play, and these 2 are no exceptions. With the addition of a high score table, it’s even more enjoyable to compete with friends over who is the fastest.
Cute buggers with guns. Look at ‘em. That’s me, as a Mudkip Tee. And as a Mudkip Tee, I get to bash, grapple and blast my friends into a cute happy oblivion with a 2D action platform game that weighs in at only 4.44MB, for Windows and Linux.
Each sunday in an effort to increase popularity between both sites we will be providing a list of the most popular stories published on Gamer Limit in the previous week. Continue reading after the jump for the stories.
The Penny Arcade games are what I call mini-RPGs, and episode two is obviously the sequel to episode one. In the game you take control of a character crafted by you, and then proceed to adventure with Gabe and Tycho of the famous Penny Arcade comic strip. If you haven’t heard of them, you should go check it out. The game is available on XBLA, PSN, Windows, MAC and Linux. For this review we will be focusing on the XBLA version, and I have not played the other version (although they are all the same game).
Cut cut cut to save the circular hero! For Splitters “walkthrough” I’m going to post the solutions to levels in URL form using the creator’s website. Also these solutions are not the quickest and some are extremely hard to pull off but all of them will show you how to get the stars.
Xbox Live Arcade has, in my opinion, always put out some quality strategy board games. Catan and Carcassorone are two of the best examples. With Capcom behind the publishing duties and some of former Bungie developers, this newly formed developer being Certain Affinity, doing the honors of creating Age of Booty to fans of the genre were eagerly anticipating the game would be putting it mildly. I am very happy to report that they delivered and then some.
Braid has generated a lot of buzz over the past couple of years. I’ve been dying to play it ever since I first heard previews almost three years ago. Heck, it even won an award for innovation in design from the 2006 Independent Games Festival, despite not coming out until 2008. If ever an independent game has been hyped, it has been Braid. Of course, as with any hyped and long-awaited game, the question everyone is asking is “Was it worth the wait?”
Spectraball is one of those games where you control a ball and roll it around, think Marble Blast or Monkey Ball. It contains a few neat features to set it apart from the crowd, but the core gameplay is the same.
Multiwinia is not like other real time strategy games. Multiwinian’s have no time for resource management, no time to build structures, no time to evolve. No, all of that is in the past. War has broken out in Darwinia and it’s time for full-throttle retro-arcade combat. If you think you have what it takes to help end this war, join us here at Casualty Gamer in our campaign against the other-colored flat people.
Scrap Metal is the first original game by Slick Entertainment, whom were previously responsible for the XBLA port of N+. Scrap Metal is their attempt at ‘re-igniting’ the arcade top-down racing genre.
If they can get it to stand up to the likes of Rock n’ Roll Racing it could be awesome for some multiplayer carnage. The details on Scrap Metal are pretty sketchy at the moment, and they haven’t even announced what platforms it will be released on. Nonetheless it looks like it could make for a good game.
