Microsoft ended 2015 with their “Greatest games lineup in History” and show no signs of slowing down with a smattering of indie games this January.
Puzzle-game Cubot hit the Xbox store earlier this week on January 11 as a simplistic game based around the rotation and movement of cubes along a sliding space. Developers NicoplvGames say that their game comes with some easy gameplay that will be a torture for your mind. However with a low, low, $1.99 pricepoint, Cubot won’t be torture on your wallet.
Next up is Hyperdrive Massacre which is due to launch on Xbox One today January 13 for $9.99. Developers 34BigThings describe their game as “an 80s inspired arcade fragfest in Spacewar sauce designed around local multiplayer, focused on kinestetics, tactical and shooting skills at a very high pace.” Got it? Yeah, me neither. Best to watch the trailer below.
Finally, ROBLOX is heading to Xbox One January 27. ROBLOX is a game development tool which promises to push the boundaries of Community Created Gaming. Whilst game development will not be available on the Xbox One, this is done on a PC, the platform will allow creators to publish their games to the console. ROBLOX will be a free download on Xbox One with 20 free titles to play at launch and many more on the way.
