LostWinds, FireHawk and more go free for a limited time!

Seems like every week, more and more high-quality apps are getting price drops. It’s a shame the developers are basically forced into doing so, but it’s also something that makes the AppStore that much more special. If you’ve yet to pick these titles up, make sure you do!!


Sega News and Sales!

Some fresh news has arrived from the folks over at Sega. In an interview with Gamespot, Ken Balough from Sega officially announced the second episode of Sonic the Hedgehog 4.  The first episode came out over a year ago, and number looks to have some huge changes.  First, there will be some huge behind the scenes work as Sega is using a brand new graphics and physics engine.  Along with that, Tails makes an appearance (as apparent by Ken’s awesome facial hair). Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 2 should be out some time in 2012, but until then get excited with the teaser trailer above.
Sonic & SEGA All Stars Racing is FREE!
On a large side note, Sega is holding quite the sale. The must-have here is Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing, which has dropped to the unbelievable price of $0.00.  This is one of the best kart racers on iOS and I’m not really sure what’s going on in your head if you don’t download it at that price. Enjoy the sales, we’ll be back with more news soon.

More December Updates, Freebies, and Sales along with news about Wizard Ops!

Alrighty, to start things off today, I got an e-mail from Justin, a developer of Wizard Ops, a 3rd person rail shooter, letting me know about their up-coming update, and it’s a fairly big one.
Version 1.2 will include one new level, “Deep Woods” in which you’ll search and destroy the deadly contraptions created by the factory, three, that’s right, THREE difficulty modes, with Easy being the original difficulty, being able to take 10 hits before you die, and having unlimited respawns. Medium difficulty; you can take 3 hits before you die, and you only get 5 respawns, and Hard difficulty; One shot kills you and you only get 3 respawns. So those of you who thought that Wizard Ops was a bit too easy, get ready to get your bullet dodging game on! There’s also going to be three new leaderboards for each level, split up between the three difficulties. The leaderboards that are already included in Version 1.1 will stay the same, but be renamed “Easy”. They have also included GameCenter Achievements, 10 of them, and have plans on adding more in the future.
They were also kind enough to send over a screenshot of the new level, lookin mighty nice if you ask me;
If you haven’t picked up Wizard Ops yet, we highly recommend that you do. This update is… well… FRIGGIN AWESOME! If you’d like to find out more about the game, you can head over to our review, and see just what the game has in store for you, or you can go head and check out the developer’s website, there’s quite a bit of info and content there, so even if you read our review, you might want to check out the site anyway.
The Version 1.2 update has already been submitted, and is waiting for approval from Apple. We’ll be posting when the update goes live, as usual, so check back, or keep an eye on your update notifications, because it should hit the store soon.
You can download Wizard Ops from the iTunes store by clicking here;

Major Changes

RAVENMARK is now Universal and will run on the iPad natively! RAVENMARK will now autosave at the start of every Command Phase, and at the start of every dialogue scene. The game will also autosave when you exit from a battle to the Main Menu. The Continue button in the Main Menu will continue the last autosaved game. The speed of the splash animations (during combat) is now adjustable in the Options menu. The splash animations can also be turned off, such that only damage and buff/debuff effects will be denoted after each combat instance.UI Changes When the terrain grid is visible, it will clearly indicate all tiles which the player’s own Elements have been commanded to occupy due to Move and Wheeling commands. When an AI-controlled Formation is selected, a new toggle is now available to switch between either displaying their movement range or displaying their attack range; the attack range will show the maximum threshold for attacking without moving, as well as attacking after a move.Gameplay Changes Players may now give an order to Move an Element or Formation into tiles either already occupied or blocked by their own units.Bug Fixes and Optimizations Fixed an issue where the information panel for AI-controlled units would sometimes not display. Fixed the radial menu scale not being updated properly when centering on a unit from a zoom that is larger than the default. Fixed dialogue errors in the cutscenes for Ravenhood mission 5, and the bug where the characters were assigned incorrect dialogue at the end of Ravenhood mission 6. In Ravenhood missions 4 and 5, certain buildings will no longer be erroneously drawn on top of units at certain locations. More aggressively reduce memory usage and increase FPS across the game.




**We should also mention that Ravenmark’s price will go up with every major content update from here on out. So if you’re interested in the game, now would be the BEST time to snag it!**

Even MORE platformer Updates, and – you guessed it – more freebies!

Ezone.com’s platform runner, Diversion, has gone through loads of updates since it’s release. It’s latest one adds even more to the already content full title. Version 1.35 brings new holiday snow themed menus and unlockable daily characters, adds levels 11-20 in World 5, more endless bonus levels, bringing the total up to 35, new characters, bringing the total to more than 600, hammer smack bosses, ice, micro boost pickups, and loads of fixes! If you haven’t picked this one up yet, you really should. Ezone.com has supported it like crazy, adding content pretty much every month. There’s TONS of gameplay, and, yeah, over 600 characters!!
Wicked Games exploratory spy platformer, SpyCorp, has had quite a few updates since it’s release as well. After taking out all of the IAPs to show complaining gamers that they were not needed to complete the game, they got a load of suggestions and feedback. Version 1.2.1 contains added HD textures for iPhone 4, iPhone 4S iPad 2 and 4th gen iPods, a button for the briefing screen to return to the level selection menu, improved some dialogue, level design tweaks and updates, as well as loads of bug fixes like GameCenter leaderboard connections, a bug fix for the operation 2 boss fight, cases where stealth would remain after a moving shadow passed off of the player, and more. Wicked Games is definitely a development group that I have to highly respect, and for $0.99, it’s hard to beat the amount of content you’ll find in SpyCorp. 50 levels, loads of them taking 15-20 minutes to complete. It’s a platformer you will not regret purchasing.
After being removed from the AppStore to fix a major bug that was included in the last update, One Minute Games speedrunner, Commander Pixman, is back, and better than ever! Version 1.2.1 has fixed possible ‘static’ monsters on replays, improved collision detection, improved GameCenter logging, a ‘Skip’ level button has been added, and 10 new levels have been included in the ‘First Blood’ level pack, which is included in the game for free. Commander Pixman is definitely a speedrunner that stands tall on it’s own two feet, respectably holding it’s own against the likes of League Of Evil, Mos Speedrun, Meganoid, and Stardash. If you’d like to try it out for free, the lite version contains the entire level pack, First Blood, go ahead and download it here – Commander Pixman – First Blood
FDG Entertainment’s 3D Motion Puzzler, Blueprint 3D, has just received it’s first update. Version 1.1 includes an all new Christmas level pack, 2 new game modes: Advanced and Pro, a new trophy, new achievements and a new leaderboard, progress is saved in each level, and some minor bug fixes. If you haven’t bought this one yet, you really should. It might not seem like something too great, but once you start playing it, it’s incredibly hard to put down.

Space Tripper gets a HUGE update, Mirrors Edge goes free, EPOCH. price drop, Agimat supporters are pretty upset… and more

–=UPDATES=–
True Axis and PomPom Games amazing game, Space Tripper, just got it’s first update last night, and it’s what a lot of customers and potential customers have been asking for. RELATIVE TOUCH controls have been added, as well as an Easy Mode and auto tilt-calibration. Fans of the tilt controls need not worry though, because the time and practice that you’ve put into the game is required for the touch controls as well. It will take some time to get use to them. But they’re there, and perfectly done. So everyone who has been waiting for touch controls can now dive in, and enjoy one of the greatest games of the year. To make it even better, those of you who have been having a hard time getting through the game on Normal Mode, can now play on Easy Difficulty, and hopefully see what all the fuss is about. If you don’t have Space Tripper yet, you NEED to get this game. It’s got to be the best arcade title I’ve played on my iDevice in a long, long time.
Agimat’s side scrolling kart racer, Flip Riders, was pulled from the AppStore not too long ago. After one of Agimat’s developers was saying over and over again in the Touch Arcade thread for the game that “More great stuff is coming real soon!“, “It’ll only get better from here on out” and “Flip Riders is going through some interesting changes” it has now been re-released in the AppStore under a different publisher, Bad Juju Games. Instead of adding it to the AppStore under the same application, it’s now a separate game, meaning that those of us who purchased Flip Riders will not be getting support for the app from now on. The new version of Flip Riders is a freemium title. Yup, that’s right. Now instead of the original 10 riders you could unlock in-game, you’re given 2 riders, and 3 that you can buy through an in app purchase. Looks like when Agimat said “It’ll only get better from here on out” they meant only get better for them, not their supporters, who are, you guessed it, extremely upset. Needless to say, they’ve lost a lot of their supporters, and will probably have a fairly hard time selling their next title, that is, if they decide to release another title in the AppStore.
To lighten the mood, thankfully there are still developers giving us AWESOME updates. Mountain Sheep, developers of the Flip Riders counterpart, Bike Baron, have just released their 1.3 update. What’s new this time around? A new game mode with Domovoi Biker that has more checkpoints, has an easier difficulty, and an all new leaderboard! Along with the new mode, 22 “best of the best” USER CREATED levels have been added to each of the difficulty levels – 12 new easy levels, 5 new medium levels, 3 new hard levels and 2 new extreme levels! A retry from beginning button has been added, more sound effects, more controls for sounds, all levels now feature additional Domovoi checkpoints only visible and usable by him, and various fixes in level flow and structure. To sum it up? Bike Baron feels almost like a completely new game. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you definitely should.

Robo5, jAggy Race and more go free!

About a month and a half ago, a game that completely took over my life was released. That game? Robo5. This amazing action puzzler grabbed me in a way not too many games have, and did not let go until I completed the game 100%, achievements and all, even hitting the #1 spot on every GameCenter leaderboard for the game (though over time, my score has been beaten… horrendously). I did all I could to get everyone I know to buy it, and they did. When they didn’t. I ended up gifting it to them. Well, now you can snag this amazing title for free, along with a couple more awesome games, like jAggy Race, probably one of the best, if not the best side-scrolling racer in the AppStore, Navigation Trade, and To-Fu 2 (which hasn’t been effected by HotGen’s infectious iAd additions yet). So go ahead. Clear up some space on your device, and get ready to sink hours upon hours of your life into these titles.
