The studio and its publisher (Southpeak Interactive) assured media that the steam punk themed third person action adventure title was still in development, despite providing official confirmation that most of the staff that was working on it were let go as management decided to look towards offshore outsourcing to finish off the rest…
Three and a half years seems like an unusually long time to port a game to the mobile platform, but that's apparently how long it took Melbourne games developers, True Axis. Toucharcade.com has been following the progress of bringing PomPom Games' indie PC horizontal shooter, Space Tripper, to the iOS platform (iPhone, iPod, and iPad). Originally slated for release in early 2009, the title has had a long slog in development with numerous issues encountered by the then two member team at True…

Matchbox Battery are a six member team of students heralding from Brisbane, and they've been developing a 3d puzzle / platformer "with a bit of a twist" for the last six months which they've just made available for play on their website.
The game, Scrapped, was developed using Unity and looks to be partly inspired by Valve's Portal in the way that you've been provided various kinds of guns, or arm extensions in this case, that perform specific functions, and it's up to you to figure out how to…
