The Original Podcast about Gaming on the Mac, iPod, and iPhone!!
The Game Bakers are hard at work on their newest iOS game, Combo Crew. I had a great chat with developer Emeric Thoa, and afterwards he sent me a video from the game itself. The Combo Crew video below has in-game gameplay. If you look closely, you’ll see an easter egg from Squids in there, too. First person to post what that easter egg is will get a free copy of Combo Crew when it comes out in May!
Ready for some freebies? For today only, Pangea Software is making all of their iOS games free with no strings attached. That’s right…for 24 hours, you can download every single one of their games from their iOS game library, games that would normally cost between $1 and $4. These games include: Monkey Bongo, Billy Frontier, Jive Turkey Shoot, Cro-Mag Rally, Warheads, Enigmo, Enigmo 2, Enigmo Deluxe, Nucleus, Air Wings, Air Wings Intergalactic, Nanosaur 2, Bugdom 2, Otto Matic, Quarters!!, and Antimatter.
And why is Pangea suddenly doing this? Is there some major holiday approaching that I don’t know about? Is Pangea President Brian Greenstone enjoying a few puffs from a particularly interesting “weed”? “iOS and the App Store are the best thing to come along in video games in 25 years,” said Greenstone, “We’ve been very fortunate to have been a part of this new industry, so to say ‘Thank You’ to all of our awesome customers we’re hosting one of the biggest giveaways the App Store has ever seen.”
The sale last only until Friday morning, so better get started downloading!

Kotaku has a detailed article about CD Projekt Red’s The Witcher 3. Kotaku’s Kirk Hamilton had a chance to sit down with three team members…lead gameplay designer Maciej Szczesnik, head of marketing Michal Platkow-Gilewski, and Managing Director Adam Badowski…and confabulate about the upcoming third title in this action-RPG about Witcher Geralt Rivia. And by detailed, I do mean seemingly every little thing that has changed or is new. In bullet form. But we don’t mind that, because we get to compare it to our own checklists, right?
When one thinks of Ubisoft, one doesn’t usually think also of Toys“R”Us.
