New: Colorbot 2
April 6th, 2010

For Colorbot 2 I read all the reviews and suggestions for Colorbot 1 and improved everything! New game modes, an option to play with the mouse, a mode for colorblind people, different enemies, power-ups and more!

Controls: Use the arrow keys or mouse (depending on your settings)
Instructions: Defeat enemies, you can only kill if you’re the same color as them.

Enjoy the game! :D

Armor Picross has to change name
April 1st, 2010

I’ve (well, Armor Games to be exact) recently received a letter from Nintendo kindly letting us know that ‘picross’ is a name registered by Nintendo Ltd. What the…? I really didn’t know that, I always thought picross (notice I don’t use a capital letter there) is the name for the traditional Japanese puzzle games just like griddlers, paint by number and nonogram puzzle is.

Well, I don’t want any trouble with Nintendo (love!) so time to change the name…Any ideas? The best idea will win the deluxe version of Armor Picross…which won’t be called Armor Picross but the name you thought of! I think the title should include the word Armor, it’s good advertising for Armor Games and I don’t think they’ll want to change that so make sure your title is Armor… or …Armor.

Post your suggestions below or e-mail to contest@kenney.nl!

Development update (March)
March 5th, 2010

I’ve got no new things to release so here’s a little development update to keep you…updated.

Shop Tycoon

Shop Tycoon (build a successful shopping street) is coming along nicely and I hope the game can be launched this very month. Slip ‘n Slide Plus has gone gold, so it will be released very soon :D

Martin Mole

Martin Mole (fun physics game) is also on track although it might take a little while before it’s finished since I’m putting all my effort in this to make sure it’ll end up great.

I came up with the Martin Mole character and game idea back in 2008 and I was developing it together with Gabriel (who made Totem Destroyer) although we never finished it and now I’m starting all over.

Slip 'n Slide Android

On top of that I’m working on an Android version of Slip ‘n Slide (Play the Flash version) which is coming along nicely although I have no preview yet since alot of graphics are still placeholders.

It will probably be released in the Market although I haven’t decided yet if the game will be free, although, if the game is going to get a price at least there will be a free lite version.

I hope that’s enough projects for you :)
