VVVVVV developer Terry Cavanagh had intended to release his flash game "Don't Look Back" for free on iOS this week, yet today announced that it had been denied by Apple. The reason? A single line in the description criticizing "in-app purchases."
In true humbug fashion, JBH lists six sad games for people who hate Christmas as much as he does.
VRFocus - Earlier in the year indie developer Arnaud Baernhoft released the first installment of his Don’t Look Back horror series online with support for the Oculus Rift virtual reality (VR) headset. The title was well received by the VR community, and now the developer has returned with the second entry, Don’t Look Back Chapter 2: The Fifth Door. A trailer for the experience can be seen below.
DDNet writes:
"It’s good to step away from the cinematic big budget titles that fill retail shelves in this modern era of the gaming industry and let a simple, yet creative little indie game take us away for a small while. Depending on skill levels, Don’t Look Back will only take about 30 minutes to complete, but it is a half hour of complete immersion that is hard to find in this day and age. If you’ve taken the plunge on the Ouya, there’s no reason not to freely download Don’t Look Back; you’ll be glad that you did."
Wow really? Release a PC version dangit! I loved VVVVVV, yet now he's just making mobile games, makes me mad.
Well that was just rotten of Apple (pun intended and hilarious).
