I have bought quite a few games now for my iPhone so I thought I’d do little mini reviews or musings about them.
Super Monkeyball as you probably know tasks you with guiding your monkey, who is trapped in a ball, through a series of levels collecting bananas. At its most simple you must get from A to B as quickly as possible and you score higher for a good time and collecting more bananas. Read the rest of this entry »

Ok so I am officially a geek (not that I probably wasn’t anyway)! I queued in the launch queue outside the Sydney Optus store just so I could be one of the first to get an iPhone 3g (well I need one to start making iPhone games, that is my excuse and I am sticking to it).
So my first impressions are as follows… Read the rest of this entry »

Just a quick note to say our blogs have changed from being made in iWeb to WordPress.
We made the change because unless you have a .mac or mobile me account iWeb doesn’t really work for blogs as you have to physically upload each blog entry by hand. WordPress on the other hand means that we can upload from any browser, email client and soon the iPhone.
Hopefully this will mean more posts, more frequently!

I finally got my copy of Metroid Prime 3 yesterday. I had asked for it to be shipped DHL from Video Games Plus which they did but they sent it to my old UK address. Fortunately both of us caught this quickly and they managed to get another copy DHL-ed to me.
Anyway I spent a couple of hours playing it last night and managed to get through 2 bosses (or one boss and a mini boss depending on how you look at it). As I have not managed to complete it I’ll give you my first impressions.
Firstly Wow! It looks great, ok not HD great but for a Wii game it looks amazing. The first few minutes or hours are very different from a normal Metroid game in that 1) you have people speaking to you 2) you don’t have to kill everything you meet and 3) you get some help in places. This might put off die-hard fans but for me it fleshes out Samus’s world a little more without removing any of the core Metroid elements.

We have reached a decision on who we will be using for Audio. The quality level was really high across all the companies we auditioned (which is good for quality and bad for making decisions!).
We would like to congratulate and welcome Game Audio Australia who we are confident will provide us with some great music and effects.
