Four new Android games in the Google Play Store week 34 – Android World

Each week many new applications and games in the Google Play Store posted. Apps we discuss a lot and often, and occasionally even a single game. In this article we will briefly discuss four new games that are not to be found so long in the Play Store.



Z Steel Soldiers

Z Steel Soldiers appeared in 2001 before the PC and was the successor of the game: the game Z. has now also appeared for Android and with improved graphics and touchscreen controller ready for this time. However, the game is playable limited because only devices with Tegra 4 or Tegra chipset K1 NIVIDA you install this game. In more than 30 levels in six different worlds, you have to perform various missions in 9 different robot troops, each with their unique characteristics. The game looks graphically beautiful, but actually playing I personally found some less. This way you can control the camera zoom for example by using while you can change by swiping weather other camera functions. Two or three fingers on the screen, the camera angle pinch-and-zoom on fifty different ways My guess is that I need some time to get used to the controls but once that is successful, I am quite happy with my tablet and Tegra 4 chipset. For now the game for € 5.99 to download by clicking the button below, but so only a limited number of users with equipment with Tegra chip is. Whether the game is also true for devices without Tegra chipset is unfortunately still unknown. The first Z-game is already downloading a while for Android and also works on non-Tegra devices, so we assume that Z Steel Soldiers will be on more devices than before. Playable

Wipeout 2

Wipeout is a known phenomenon in which several people on a large and exciting track has to travel without falling, falling in the water or on beaches in the battle to be the first to be. kinds of parts In the new game Wipeout 2 you can back their way across the strangest and most difficult obstacles in 135 levels. You must at all costs be first and you do that by jumping, diving, rolling and diving with one of ten characters to choose from, including a zombie, pirate and pop star. Every day there are new challegenges to play, there can be found online leaderboards and winning all kinds of power-ups and coins can you character also another pimp in appearance, clothing and style. The game is free to download, but it does offer in-app purchases. The game is free to download for devices running Android 2.2.3 or higher, but there seems to be something wrong with the restrictions as it is on any device to download in the newsroom. Yet we did not want to remember this game, and we expect that it will be.

 Wipeout 2

Appointment with FEAR

Developer Tin Man Games may not be known to anyone but the lovers ‘Gamebook Adventures’ could not be happier certainly not with the new game Appointment with FEAR In this game you’re a superhero in Titan City who goes to meet and all sorts of adventures that are presented as a beautiful comic, which you can make your own choices and which music plays a big role. In the beginning of the game you can already choose what gender you are and you can also choose from various superhero costumes. Of course you can choose a super power, but also a name can not be missed. Your own name is not to be completed, probably because that bit harder to knit in the story. Nevertheless, a beautiful ‘game’, if it appeals to you and download for € 2.99.

“HTC’s Android-Wear smart watch comes in September on the market” – Android World

There are a few tweets posted by Twitter Accountupleaks which spoke of a smart watch from HTC which sold in September has to be in different countries. Earlier, HTC already announced work on a wearable that should be. Yet released this year



Android Wear

Android Wear, the customized version of Android for smart watches and fitness trackers we see more and more with the announcement of new products. We saw yesterday the new LG G Watch R passing and we know the Moto 360, the first G Watch and Gear Live al. These are only the smart watches of the big brands, but the market will continue to expand and the smaller manufacturers will come to market with Android Wear equipment.

One of the brands we have very few had heard about the Wear market is HTC. Although previous rumors have talked about a ‘wearable’ of this company, it is now said half a year ago. It stated that a wearable would be released by HTC, around the Christmas period of 2014, but whether this would be a fitness armband, smart watch or other product demand remained. According Cher Wang, co-founder of HTC, are a good battery life and a good screen is important for the experience by the user of the product.

In early March, we felt Mark Moons to task over wearables and how HTC was this, but of course Mark could only tell us little about the plans of HTC to enter this market.

HTC smart watch

Using the Twitter Account ofupleaks there are now some tweets sent in the world who have an HTC smart watch which runs on Android Wear. There is talk and screen diagonal of 1.8 inches, which thus is slightly larger than the screens of the G Watch and Gear Live with their 1.65-inch screens. The new G Watch R contains a smaller screen, ie with a diagonal of 1.3 inches.

The above resolution is 32×160 pixels, and it really looks like a typo, otherwise it uses a very rectangular screen was going to be where it was. To see only one line of text A resolution of 320×160 pixels seems a lot more plausible, but the aspect ratio of 2: 1 that the watch will be, we have not seen before. The battery life is 100mAh and there we put some questions. Other smart watches have so far received around 400mAh batteries and so this is significantly lower. HTC said it earlier so that battery life was an important issue for consumers, but it seems that it has to be a compromise. Concluded with a battery with such a small capacity somewhere It might also be a mistake of tasty, but since stopping master niceevleaks lately lots of good info appears still using this account.

The device is also waterproof and dustproof as all Wear Android devices, and therefore has an IP57 certification. The tweeter also states that the watch in September comes to market in countries such as North America, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Brazilli ë, the Middle East, Europe and some European countries in Africa.

Availability

The IFA at the door and said release in September, it seems that HTC is also the smart watch is present on this techbeurs to be held from 5 to alongside the Desire 820 September 10 in Berlin, Germany. If so you can read it here, of course, on Andoidworld.
