You asked for it, and now you’ve got it! Bloktonik leaderboards are online and embedded in the game as well as in their own link at Bloktonik.com.
We’ve teamed up with MochiMedia to bring you these leaderboards complete with country tracking, medals, and Day/Week/Month/All stat charting, so now you can totally represent your nation and rub your ridiculously high scores in the face of people all over this green Earth.
Aw heck, there’s even a Twitter/Facebook function to post your scores and annoy everyone you love and know personally!
Hey all you people reading my blog out there. Been busy! Big plans set for the end of this year and into next Spring. Robotube is gonna essplode…can’t give away too much on that right now, but pretty soon.
Been working on updating Bloktonik to a ridiculous degree, prepping it for big happenings next year.
Here’s what I’ve added, for your blowin-stuff-up pleasure:
Go get this game right now. I don’t know how long the suits will allow this to stay at the $.99 mark, so I’d be jumping on this and rolling around in it while you still can.
Yow…it’s been a while since I’ve typed words and stuff all over this blog. Been sort of busy. You guys know how it is.
Anyway, what better way to make a return than to talk about Space Invaders, only the single greatest video game franchise to ever appear on pretty much EVERY console ever conceived. I believe there’s even a version that will play on my microwave oven display.
What is it about Space Invaders that I simply have to see it played on every platform possible? I mean, the game is always the same, but I feel like Space Invaders is almost like a little diagnostic tool…something that evaluates and manifests all the little quirky nuances of each different piece of hardware it’s able to run on. Having seen the game for 35 years played on its native arcade machine, seeing it on different platforms makes playing a little comparison game so fascinating. So, it’s always a delight when Space Invaders is given a complete overhaul and I’m completely unsure of what to expect.
To call “Space Invaders Extreme 2″ an “overhaul” is an understatement. And there, my friends, is the last time I will use quotation marks in this post, I promise.
Jay is Games, one of the web’s foremost respected indie and casual gaming authorities, has given Bloktonik a glowing review.
I wasn’t lying when I said that this game is addictive. We’ve seen matching games done in any number of ways, but Bloktonik manages to implement a lot of innovative new features that can keep you playing for hours.
I am not that great at Street Fighter. Though, I’ve been playing the game since I was in high school. I am of the rare breed that even played Street Fighter 1, with the giant pressure-sensitive buttons and all. I enjoy the game. I like the real-time brain game that it is. I like the competition, the depth, the timing, the beautiful design….all of it. I can hold my own, maybe win 5 out of 10 matches. But sure, I lose a lot.
I’ve owned Street Fighter IV since release day in February of 2009. I’ve enjoyed every heart-pounding match, and even made a few friends along the way. But something has been happening lately: I’ve found that Street Fighter can turn people into unbelievable jerks.
When I said I wanted to do a Weekend Playlist regularly, I meant regularly according to MY definition. This does not necessarily coincide with YOUR definition of regularly. This weekend I played two games, pretty much. One of them is older and has been out for some time, the other is really old, but recently got a facelift for current generation consoles. Thankfully, it was rainy here on Saturday, perfect excuse to blow the entire day playing games! I love rainy weekends!
