Weekly Launchpad. What Kickstarters Launched Sep 7 – 13

September 14th - via: cliqist.com
Every week we take a brief look at all of the Kickstarter campaigns that launched in the previous week. This isn’t to say that all of these projects are worth your hard earned cash, but with any luck having all of them in one place will make it easier to educate yourself on the projects you’d like to back, and which ones to run from. You’ll find two types of campaigns listed, “featured” and “the rest“. Featured campaigns are those that contain a significant amount of game information, are from known developers, or are significant in some other way. The rest of the games are usually smaller campaigns that are lacking in information, are from unknowns, have unanswered questions, or have not yet stood out for one reason or another. (Read More)

Heroes Never Lose – An Action Puzzler with a Superhero Twist

September 10th - via: cliqist.com
It’s weird to look back at gaming’s history and see how genres have ebbed and flowed in popularity. During the 90s it seemed like action/puzzle hybrids were the “in” thing. Although some games remained in Japan, such as Tetris Battle Gaiden, popular series such as Street Fighter got their own wildly popular offshoots like Puzzle Fighter. In these games two players would face off and try to clear their board of blocks, which would cause effects on the other player’s screen. Heroes Never Lose: Professor Puzzler’s Perplexing Ploy (or HNL: PPPP) is hoping to bring back that type of game. (Read More)
