With digital distribution on the rise, incredibly small developers have been able to release quality games at a reasonable price -- while raking in sizable profits, of course.
DSiWare has had far less success stories of this nature than other services, but this is not for a lack of willing developers. The latest attempt at stardom is Big John Games' Thorium Wars, a futuristic vehicle shooter that feels as visually insipid, shallow and undistinguishable as its screenshots make it seem.
Welcome to Indie Corner, the place where Nintendo Indie games shine! Every Wednesday I take a look at a featured Indie game and update you on all things Nintendo Indie related plus give one lucky winner a free indie game. This week I take a look at 2 games developed by RCMADIAX; Blok Drop U and Poker Dice Solitaire Future. I also have 2 new kickstarters worth checking out and a few new game updates to share.
I enjoyed the humor in the vid, well done. I love me some indies. Glad you are focusing on WiiU, it is helpful to figure out which ones I want to try.
SuperPhillip Central writes, "Last Thursday I kicked off reviews for the month of October with a look at Kart Krashers, a DSiWare title by Big John Games. Speaking of which, I recently had the chance to speak with Ken Patterson, the founder of the studio. We talked about their latest game in Kart Krashers, Nintendo's game acceptance policy (how easy or hard it is to get a game accepted on their marketplace), how a developer receives a Wii U developer kit, and so much more."
"Thorium Wars is set to release on October 8, 2010 for 800 Nintendo DSi Points™ and is rated USK 12+ and PEGI 7+." -- Wiiloveit.com (Official Press Release)
