Retro Racing - Indie Game Showcase @Appstore

November 15, 2014 by Laser Dog

Why we love Retro Racing

Retro Racing is a perfectly pocket sized, awesome mobile racer. The 16-bit inspired style translates really well to mobile devices, it's fast, fun and requires the perfect amount of skill to tear around the courses. The track designs are exceptional with secret routes, obstacles and pickups scattered throughout. The game has a really solid feel, the scale, speed and visibility are perfect (very important aspects in a top down racer!). It's not overloaded with 'juice' (which feels perfect for this!) it's fun and quick and a beautiful example of the style.

Favourite moments

  • Screaching round corners
  • Discovering a 'perfect' route round a course
  • Achieving 5+ pickups on accel, top speed and tyres
  • Playing two player
  • Realising (again!) that you actually have to let off before corners?
  • The detailed, retro inspired graphics
  • Discovering the developer worked on some awesome titles from the golden age of gaming!

Retro Racing is an excellent game, it's fast, fun and stuffed full of replay value - buy it!

Terraria - Indie Game Showcase @Appstore

Why we love Terraria

Terraria is a beautiful open world game that we've spent hours exploring, you have to commit a little time to fully enjoy it, but if you do, you won't regret it. The mobile version is a pretty faithful pocket reproduction of the PC game and the controls work fairly well. The wonderfully flat 2D pixel art style is complimented by an awesome chip tuney score and perfectly balanced sound. Terraria has a wonderful ability to let you release your creative side, train journeys seem to pass bye in seconds, awesome game!

 

Favourite moments

  • The satisfaction when you chop down a tree and it rains wood!
  • Protecting yourself from bad guys on the first night
  • When the music changes!
  • The awesome water physics
  • A wonderful break from Minecraft
  • Floating islands

Terraria is wonderful game with plenty of uniqueness to make it an essential purchase - buy it!
