Whilst browsing Badlogic Games’ blog, I spotted the video at the bottom of this article. It’s an upcoming Android game from Pixelbite, the team behind the Polarbit published Raging Thunder 2. Check out the video, if the Android version looks anywhere near as good as the video, this could be one hell of a sweet game. There are a lot of really promising looking Android titles being released this year that could really raise the standard bar by quite a distance, which, let’s be honest, is exactly …

Review time again. This week, we’ve been taking a look at another puzzle game, this time Connectoo by Rudolf Halmi. ConnecToo involves connecting a number of blocks of colour with another block of the same colour on a grid.

Bendroid games have announced that the next part in their episodic spine-freezer series, Mystique, has been released to the Android Market. The first two chapters were hugely popular, and from what we’ve seen so far, this one looks like it could be even better than the first two. Click the link for more.

I’m always keen to read the thoughts and experiences of developers on the development of Android apps and games.  I’ve recently come across an interesting blog by a hobbyist developer going by the name of Ben. According to the blog, Ben is an RPG fan who was disappointed at the poor examples of the genre which were available in the Android Market, so he decided to code his own one. The result is, or rather, will be, an RPG called DefileDroid which is similar in looks to the …

Mario of Badlogic Games has agreed to answer a few of our questions. Badlogic Games are the people behind the physics puzzler Newton, which has recently broken 10,000 downloads on the Android Market. No mean feat.
As well as developing in Android, Mario writes a blog detailing his experiences with developing Android games. As part of the blog, Mario has let his readers in on his next Android project, which is actually pretty exciting – an Audiosurf inspired procedurally generated game which uses the player’s music to generate gameplay.
