Games Freezer - FREE Access To Development Suite @Project_Anarchy

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On
Project Anarchy The Free Games Development Tool

GamesFreezer spotted some great news about something called "Project Anarchy" recently and we decided to investigate further.

Project Anarchy is giving Free Access to development suite for budding Games Developers who wish to publish games on iOS or Android.


The development suite is a complete end to end game engine and state-of-the-art tool set for mobile gaming. 

The whole concept is based around a busy game development community centred at www.projectanarchy.com

What is so cool about this concept is that it includes an entirely FREE license to ship your game on iOS, Android and Tizen platforms. 


In order to ensure Project Anarchy is free for iOS, Android and Tizen they encourage developers who use it to become part of the bustling  community and add value to the community in order to ensure its a great place to make games. 

Secondly they ask for the opportunity to do some marketing with developers when it comes to releasing the game, which is no bad thing as far as we can see.

Thirdly, if you have created a game targeting Android platform that you plan to upload to an app store, the FREE license requires that you build an equivalent x86-compatible version of the game and upload it alongside any other versions that you have built (apparently building this x86 is pretty straightforward)

All of this sounds pretty reasonable to us for the FREE use of the Project Anarchy development suite of tools.

Take a trip to projectanarchy.com and get involved with this great new concept that could well enable you to create the game of your dreams!

Are you interested in taking advantage of this great piece of kit?

What game would you create using the Project anarchy Tool Set?

Games Freezer - Game Pix @gamepix

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

 

We were intrigued by Game Pix after discovering the website on our usual trawl of The Video Games world on Twitter.

GamePix was created to enhance the concept of online gaming experience. You get to "Create your avatar" "Play Games" "Conquer the world" and hopefully "Become The KING!"


We liked the idea of this, so gave it a try!

So.....How does it work?

First steps are to create an avatar. Naturally we opted for a pretty female gamer chick type Avatar called GamesFreezer. 

We got to style her body (curves), hair (brunette), brows (cute), eyes (green), Nose (button), mouth (happy), ears (small) and clothes (ravishing!).

Once this was complete and we'd stopped ogling her we then got an explanation of how the game works.

Basically, Game Pix is all about conquering the real world map Pixel By Pixel. 

If you find a free Pixel you can conquer it immediately for the price of 20EP (we conquered Essex without a hint of a fight!). 

If you find a particular location / Pixel that you really want to conquer is already taken, then you can fight it out with the owner of that Pixel in a FIGHT TO THE DEATH! 

You Avatar's abilities will be matched up against whoever you challenge and then both combatents will go head to head in a fight for the Pixel in question. The winner will then own that Pixel.

In order to boost your Avatar's stats you get the opportunity to play free games in the "Gym". 

These games will go towards boosting your skills and getting you to a level whereby you can confidently challenge others for their pixel.

There are over 10000 Free Games to choose from so you are truly spoilt for choice! The Games you play, the stronger you become.

The ultimate aim is to challenge others, conquer the world and become king of your country!

We have just started out with our buxom heroine and will update you on progress as we begin to take over our territory.

First Impressions of this novel concept are good. We like the user interface and the styling of the hub etc.

We got then opportunity to play Coaster Racer 3 with its oasis style guitar music and we really enjoyed it. Its a simple racer but really enjoyable as you tear it up round corners overtaking and earning achievements and points for your avatar!

Overall we will most definitely be returning to Game Pix in order to take over the world PIXEL BY PIXEL!

Check it out and sign up at Game Pix and look for GamesFreezer!

Games Freezer - Film Of The Day - "The Space Invaders" In Search Of Lost Time

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On
If you LOVE Arcade Games you will LOVE this film!

The rise and fall of the Video Games Arcades in the 80's is a sad story that saw almost all of the great Arcade machines disappear from our high streets and shops only to be consigned to history and looked back on with fondness.

It's rare in the UK to see Arcade machines outside of the seaside town Amusement arcades nowadays and we at Games Freezer* do miss the Arcade machine in the local Fish & Chip shop that would gobble our 20p while we waited for our Cod & Chips to be cooked.

"The Space Invaders" is a documentary that looks at the fall of the Arcade industry and in particular talks to those enthusiasts who are looking to keep the Arcades alive by collecting cabinets and building their own Arcades in their homes.

It's a great insight into the Arcade Machine collectors culture and a really well told story from director Jeff Von Ward that brings alive the passion these guys have for the Arcade Cabinets.

Check out the link below to find out more and support this great documentary.

The Space Invaders

Once you have watched it let us know what you thought of it?

 

It made us want to build our very own GamesFreezer* Arcade in London!

 

If we built it......would you come along?
