Pocket Gamer's just got a new lick of paint and it's looking good
What's that? Pocket Gamer looks a bit different from before? Well, yes it does and there's a very good reason for that – it's had a spruce. I know, I know, between Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, and the PG redesign, it was hard to tell which legendary things were just pure myth. We've taken that out of your hands though and made it a reality, or rather Jez Bridgeman (Steel Media, Creative Director) and Jay Filmer (Steel Media, Technical Lead) did with their website wizardry. You may also notice that Pocket Gamer has snipped off its '.co.uk' tail and replaced it with Pocketgamer.com instead. Plus, it's a lot faster and more responsive than before. "The busy Pocket Gamer site was in n…
Angels In The Sky is an Unreal Engine 4-powered strategic shooter with gorgeous graphics
Angels In The Sky, a stunning-looking Unreal Engine 4-powered strategic shooter, was released onto the App Store by developer AimToG late last month. This action-packed title thrusts you into the role of a fighter pilot, and tasks you with taking out wave after wave of alien ships that won’t hesitate to take you down at a moment’s notice. These ships can move at blistering speeds, so you’re forced to think on your feet at all times. You wouldn’t be much of a fighter pilot if you didn’t have access to weaponry, which is why your craft can be equipped with up to two of the game’s many firearms (which include a weapon that’s capable of destroying your…

Watch_Dogs Companion: ctOS Mobile lets you battle console and PC players online
If you are excited about the release of Ubisoft's highly anticipated Watch_Dogs, then the Watch_Dogs Companion: ctOS Mobile might be be worth a peek.

Super Smash Bros-style brawler Fright Fight now live around the world
Horror-flavoured multiplayer brawler Fright Fight has been causing a ruckus on the New Zealand App Store for a while now. However, the free-to-play Super Smash Bros.-inspired fighter has just gone global, finally hitting North American and European shores. Fright Fight is all about pitting classic horror icons against one another in pitched battle. The game's four-player online mode allows you to have a free-for-all with up to three other fighters, including a vampire, a yeti, and the Grim Reaper. You control your character's movement and abilities though a series of simple swipes and taps. With only a couple of attacks to fall back on, however, the move list does feel a little l…
Split-screen puzzler Dual Survivor will pit your thumbs against each other
Before you read any further, we have a challenge for you: Rub your stomach and pat your head at the same time. No, really. We can wait. Did you struggle with that? Well, then you'll have some understanding of the challenge Rising Step's new game Dual Survivor has in store for you. You see, the goal of the sci-fi puzzler is to guide two separate energy cores down two separate paths. The catch is that you'll be steering both cores simultaneously with separate thumbs. This brain splitting task will start off quite simply, with two symmetrical tracks running in parallel. As the game progresses however, Dual Survivor will step up the difficulty, introducing a range of jumps, obst…
