Leena van Deventer writes: "Blade Kitten, the latest installment from Australia’s Krome Studios, introduces us to Kit Ballard, a genetically engineered human/cat hybrid known as a Felion. Kit is a unique kind of bounty hunter called a ‘Breaker’ and the game follows her journey through the synthetic shell-like planetoid of Hollow Wish. The Blade Kitten universe originated in comic form, from which the game heavily borrows it’s anime-inspired art style. Kit jumps, flips, climbs, slides, and ground pounds her way through the cavernous depths and the tallest towers of this vividly detailed, very pretty 2D platformer, with the help of her friends Skiffy and Noot. As you travel various enemies such as slugs, space marines, droids, giant snails, Squamatans and Darques all try and get in the way of Kit’s main goals - the rapid acquisition of moolah… and, to a lesser extent, survival."

"Years ago I had the chance to interview Steve Stamatiadis the creative director at Krome Studios and since then I've been good friends with him. You may know this company since they created Blade Kitten, Full House Poker, Game Room and much more. Well just a short time ago glancing at my Facebook feed I noticed the Blade Kitten page posting about Blade Kitten Episode 2, which has been missing for quite sometime. When I say missing I mean in limbo for quite a few years since it wasn't able to see the light of day until now."
38 Studios went bankrupt and Rockstar moved from Vancouver to Toronto. Where does the government budget sit in our industry, and how can we improve its use?
