As you leap around charging monsters, branches and pine cones become your desperately improvised weapons, giving you just enough breathing room to outmanuever and decide your ne…

As the narrative moves from the sunny exteriors to the deadly caverns and alien ruins within, Sling Ming in…
Quirky javelin-flinging action game Lichtspeer is now available on the App Store
A single javelin may not seem like enough to hold back an army of towering giants, sharply-dressed zombies, and glasses-wearing walruses, but that javelin probably isn’t the Lichtspeer.
