Omium - New 2 Player iPad Game!

May 20, 2010

Omium is a 2 player shoot em up. The 2 players literally face each other as one player controls the ship and shoots at the Bad Guys falling down the screen. The other player is controlling where the Bad Guys are going, how big they are, and how fast they are moving.

There are 3 game modes:

Dodge - The Bad Guys win when one of them touches the ship. The ship can shoot Bad Guys to make them smaller until they pop out of existence.

Juggle - The Bad Guys win when one of them reaches the bottom of the screen or touches the ship. The ship must constantly shoot the Bad Guys into the air to make sure they don’t reach the bottom!

Infinite - Similar to Dodge except that the Bad Guys wrap around to the top of the screen once they reach the bottom. The ship has better ammo in this mode that destroys the Bad Guys faster but this ammo costs more so make sure to save it up.

Omium has been submitted to the app store and should be available very soon!

Dizzypad Lands on the App Store!

February 26, 2010

Our first new iPhone / iPod Touch game of 2010, Dizzypad has just hit the App Store! Check out our gameplay video and description below:

Koi Pond meets Doodle Jump in this beautiful high score game from NimbleBit!

Escape into your own tranquil pond to see how far you can jump your
dizzy frog from pad to spinning pad. Skip pads to earn extra flowers
and extend your journey. Unlock new frog skins by earning various awards
and compete with others through a local high score and multiple online
leaderboards.

- 15 unlockable frog skins
- Plus+ awards and leaderboards
- Serene sounds and graphics (including koi and dragonflies)

“Nimblebit describes Dizzypad as a cross between Doodle Jump and Koi Pond, but quite frankly it’s much better than both.” - App Advice

“like with any good game, it’s harder than it looks and does a good job keeping you trying for higher score.” - Touch Arcade

“It’s addictive and simple fun, with every missed jump just one tap away from starting over again and that familiar thought that ‘this time, I can do it better.’” - TUAW

“Overall it is another solid game from NimbleBit. The difficulty curve is just right, the control scheme efficient and the presentation certainly a cut above” - Games Uncovered

“Just like Nimblebit’s 9 other games, Dizzypad is as addicting as it gets!” - Appmodo

“a fun, well-rounded, casual and visually good-looking gaming experience which is both addictive and at the same time, a joy to play. I really can’t recommend this game enough!” - 148Apps

“The combination of strategy, challenge, and fun make this game an instant hit” - No DPad

“Dizzypad LOOKS easy but it’s challenging in itself and challenging to put down, it’s that addicting!” - The APPera

Path of the Monk: A GGJ game about deception

February 2, 2010

This past weekend I participated in the Global Game Jam at the Sunnyvale location (near San Francisco). There were 50 people at my location. It was fun, crazy, intense, insomnia inducing, stressful, and incredibly rewarding. I was at last year’s GGJ too which you can read about here.

Another reason billions choose Zero Gear

January 26, 2010

Posted below is the last in the series of videos we call “Another reason billions choose Zero Gear”. We made these videos mostly for fun and a little bit hoping they would convince a few more people to join the billions of Zero Gear players. I know we succeeded on one of these cases at least.

If you have’t seen them yet, please watch the first three before watching the final video.

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

And finally, Part 4

So that is it! Thanks for watching :)
