Kodansha USA Partnering With INKR Digital Comics Service

Kodansha USA Partnering With INKR Digital Comics Service

, , , , 0

American manga distributor Kodansha USA has announced it’s entering a partnership with INKR. If you’ve never heard of it, but assume it’s some new app, you’re right. INKR was created by a Vietnamese team working for a Singaporean company, and its aim is to do for manga what Netflix did for TV…a steady stream of content for a flat subscription rate. INKR just launched in October 2020, and Kodansha marks one of the biggest acquisitions in the young app’s two-month life so far. In addition to manga, INKR also distributes webtoons, manhua, and other comics through its service — it aims to stream in content from all over the world. The deal means INKR now carries over 400 manga volumes for reading, under respected titles like Attack on Titan, To Your Eternity, A Silent Voice, Your Lie in April, and more. Next week the app will be getting even more manga from Kodansha as it takes on Fire Force, Fairy Tail, and The Seven Deadly Sins. INKR has also landed

Fortnite Vs. Apple: The Ugly Affair So Far

Fortnite Vs. Apple: The Ugly Affair So Far

, , , , , 0

We feel sorry for any Fortnite fan who took a hike into the mountains today with no Internet connections, and returned this evening to find the whole world topsy-turvy. Sit down and let us tell the tale, it’s been a wild last few hours. This morning, Epic Games surprised everyone by lowering the cost of V-Bucks on all versions of Fortnite, including the mobile ones. The reason they haven’t been able to do this before was the high cost of fees generated from piping all in-app purchases through Apple or Google. This was non-negotiable; if you want to do business on mobile, you’ve gotta pay the gatekeepers. And it’s still non-negotiable, but Epic finally decided it had enough and deliberately flouted the rule, offering a bypass for mobile customers to send direct payments to Epic itself. The direct payment method was two dollars less than the standard, making it a no-brainer. Basically, Epic took Apple’s rules, threw them on the ground, set them on fire and said defiantly, “So whatcha

Neat Things You Can Get For Free While Stuck At Home

Hey, you. Bored at home? Presumably you are, if you care about flattening the curve and preventing our nation’s hospital system from being overrun (look up the grim news from Italy right now if you don’t see why this is important). Many companies right now want to encourage self-quarantine, and they’re doing so by releasing some of their content for free. Here are some of the cool things you can read, watch and play for $0 right now…. TOMB RAIDER (2013) We really should have reported on this the day it first happened, but Square and Steam are offering the PC version of Tomb Raider for free, just for the weekend. And yes, “The Weekend” is technically over, but the giveaway extends through Monday, so you still have a few hours. Not only is the 2013 Tomb Raider free but so is Lara Croft and the Tomb of Osiris, a spinoff that’s more of a co-op puzzle game in an overhead view. These games will be free until noon Pacific

Shadow Seven Is Out, With A Global Launch Event

Shadow Seven Is Out, With A Global Launch Event

, , , , , 0

Shadow Seven has officially launched around the world. The tactical strategy game by studio Neptune features several original anime-style characters voiced by famous Japanese voice actors. You collect and enhance these characters through strategic turn-based PvP battles. The game has been in Early Access form since last December. Now it’s launched, and a lot of new content has been added to celebrate. Three new characters are collectable: Tigris, Mistie, and Orga. They are all part of the shadowy faction called the Lucky Rabbit Corps, but each of them plays differently. There are now two new Spell cards for every Captain, tailored to their personalities. “Leah’s new spells focus more on her Healing abilities while Argos’s new spells lean towards his use of Vampiric abilities,” says Neptune. You can also get involved with two in-game events celebrating the launch: “Global Launch Collecting Event,” which sees you accumulating coins through missions and exchanging them for rewards (like the new characters), and “Party Costume Pickup Gacha,” where you have the chance to win

Shadow Seven Pre-Registration Campaign Begins

Shadow Seven Pre-Registration Campaign Begins

Shadow Seven is coming to a mobile phone near you. The tactical strategy game, now under development at studio Neptune, features several original anime-style characters voiced by famous Japanese voice actors. It’s been around in Early Access form since last December, but it’s gearing up for its official release…and if you pre-register, you can gain bonus rewards. We do have to mention, though: for unknown reasons, the campaign applies only to the Android version of the game. Also, this is one of those campaigns where the amount of bonuses you’ll actually get depends on the amount of people who pre-register the game. If over 1,000 do it, they’ll all get an extra costume for the Geros character: a mechanic suit. The campaign reaches beyond the game itself. If Shadow Seven’s global Facebook page reaches 2500 likes, everyone will get a bonus Royal Box, and if the Shadow Seven YouTube channel reaches 1000 subscribers, everyone will get 1000 Gems. Shadow Seven will launch soon in the USA, Korea and Taiwan. The

Nox Mortis Serves Up Virtual Scares

Nox Mortis Serves Up Virtual Scares

, , , , , 0

There’s survival horror, and then there’s just….horror. The goal in Nox Mortis, the new VR app from Sigil Entertainment, isn’t to survive. It’s just to get scared. Nox Mortis is a passive experience that you load up in virtual reality. The “game” has over twenty scares, which appear in a randomized order, and the visuals are rendered in a Virtual Boy red and black style. The opening screen gives you a message that states: YOU ARE TRAPPED IN A HELLISH NIGHTMARE. YOU MUST WITNESS ALL OF THE EVENTS UNFOLD. EVENTS ARE RANDOMIZED IN EACH SESSION. NO ESCAPE: You can’t move at all. Sigil advertises the lack of mobility as a strength, claiming it’s scarier, but there’s also the possibility that it’s cheaper to put the app on rails. It’s also viewable in 2D if you’re too chicken for the VR experience. One element of Nox Mortis that kind of lets us down is that it’s exclusively a cell phone VR experience….you know, that thing where you slip your phone into

The Skylanders have officially gone mobile: Skylanders Ring Of Heroes has been released in America on iOS and Android platforms. Though it’s missing the figure element (because the toy-to-game genre has fadded itself out), Ring of Heroes maintains the same gameplay elements players loved about the originals. Strangely, the US is one of the last to get the game. Skylanders Ring Of Heroes came out in Canada, Australia and New Zealand last December. Now we’re caught up to the rest of the world: 120 countries in total can play this game. Skylanders: Ring of Heroes is a turn-based, action RPG adventure based on the IP of Activision’s famous console game. The mobile version will bring back some great memories of Skylanders by featuring 80 different characters from the original story. Not only this, the game will expand the level of strategies by introducing an “Awaken” system which will further enhance the Skylanders ability and charm. Players will dive into the world as Portal Masters, the guardians of Skylands, and set

Over the past few years Cartoon Network has aggressively chased the video game market, licensing out its characters for games on all machines when not outright making them themselves. Now they’re about to present their most ambitious venture in that direction to date: Cartoon Network Arcade. It’s the one-stop destination for every CN-based app game going forward. One would assume the premise would allow CN to simply recycle the dozens of existing games starring their cartoon properties, but the network is going all-in by launching with fifteen new games — and more are on the way. The Amazing World of Gumball – Gumball’s Block Party Climb as high as you can to stay ahead of the collapsing blocks. Collect and play 5 Gumball characters. Apple and Onion – Bottle Catch Toss bottles back and forth between Apple and Onion to build up speed, then launch them into the air to collect coins.

Last year Cartoon Network introduced their endless climbing game, Super Slime Blitz, to mobile devices. The original game starred the Amazing World of Gumball characters, and was rated highly by users. Millions downloaded the game, and so begat this sequel, starring Ben 10: Super Slime Ben. The goal of the game, as was with the first, is to climb as high as possible — but this time you have the power to use Ben’s alien transformations when applicable. All ten aliens will be at your disposal, and you’ll use them to collect coins and special outfits. It is a freemium game, so if you’re really bad at collecting the items, CN will be more than happy to sell them to you. Developed by Crystal Fish, Ben 10: Super Slime Ben is the follow-up to the hit free-to-play game Super Slime Blitz, and this time the challenges are bigger and better than ever! Play as all ten of Ben’s superpowered aliens, and climb as high as your skills will take you
