The bra is, perhaps, the rudest item of women's clothing. If you doubt this, try this simple test: throw a bra at a nine year old boy.
He will react as if he has had a live tarantula launched at his head. He will run, screaming, away from you. He cannot handle the rudeness of bras.
It is with great alacrity then, that I applaud the makers of Bras and Balls. They have guts. They have balls. T...

A Voyeur for September isn't the kind of game you'd expect from Team Meat.
That's Edmund McMillen and Tommy Refenes, those of hardcore platformer Super Meat Boy fame, if you weren't aware.
The pair announced this upcoming "live-action stealth game" yesterday. They say that a full reveal will be coming on September 1st during PAX Prime, where the game will be part of the Indie Megabooth.

Slitherine and Polar Motion has pulled Buzz Aldrin's Space Program Manager out of the Early Access testing phase now. If you missed it, sorry, you were too slow.
But don't worry, the game will be coming to iPad and Android tablets on October 31st.
We haven't mentioned Space Program Manager for a while. There's a good reason: the game was due to release in June 2013, but was pulled after test...
Not Doppler has announced that Earn to Die 2 will be coming to iOS and Android later in the year.
It turns out that the original game proved to be quite popular despite it being, as we said in our review, an "oddly uninspiring experience".
So this is all your fault. But hey, let's not be grouchy, as it seems that Not Doppler may win us over this time.
You see, the original game was too ea...
Even monster houses like ice cream. But then, who doesn't?
Don't worry, I haven't lost the plot (yet), it's just that Firedroid has released Ice Cream Nomsters onto iOS and Android.
It's a free to play game, offering a challenging mix of puzzle and time management. Your job is to feed ice cream to, yep, hungry monsters that also happen to be houses.
To keep up with the demand for the chi...

It will be available for free on iOS this Thursday, on August 21st, with a 69p / 99c in-app purchase to remove ads. Word on an Android release is currently unannounced, but likely.
Instead of playing a bird, Swing Copters puts you in control of a...
Boss Monster is a dungeon-building card game that will be coming to iOS and Android if it's successfully funded on Kickstarter.
Brotherwise Games Kickstarted the paper version of Boss Monster back in 2012. It's since kicked off across America and is played by thousands.
Many of the fans have been requesting a digital version of the game. As such, Brotherwise has teamed up with develope...
Veteran British designer Peter Molyneux has always faced criticism and backlash for his work. He brings it on himself, most of the time, by promising ambitious features and then failing to fully deliver on them.
But with Kickstarted god game Godus - which recently launched on iOS as a free to play game - Molyneux has faced some of the most vehement detractors yet.
I chatted to the man behind...
Fans of Syberia will be pleased. Microids has announced that Syberia 3 is now underway and should be coming to mobile in 2015.
Once again, we'll be following corporate lawyer turned detective Kate Walker. She's investigating the mysterious island of Syberia once again in this third entry to the adventure game series.
While we don't have many details yet, Microids has released some screensho...
Elysian Shadows is an intriguing looking 2D RPG that's currently looking for funding through a Kickstarter campaign. With 13 days to go it's already sucked up $100,000, but it needs another $50,000 to pass its funding goal.
The game is looking to push the retro RPG genre into the future, adding particles, dynamic lighting, and other shiny things to take the pixel art up to the next level. ...
Every week, Pocket Gamer provides a weekly digest of the most important and popular stories from these digital pages.

With Gamescom 2014 still in full swing, it's not surprising that most of this week's big hitters come from Cologne.
Industry speakers were once again on fine form, with Vlambeer's Rami Ismail serving up some advice on how to attract the press, players, and platform holders, while Adriel Wallick - a.k.a. Ms Minotaur - told us what she learned from making 38 games in 38 weeks.

The sleek yet challenging dodge 'em up Unpossible is now available on Android for £1.49 / $1.99.
As its name suggests, Unpossible is tough, but once you get the hang of it, it can be incredibly rewarding.
In the game, you're rocketed in the first person down a gravity-defying track, a winding pipe covered with obstacles.
Your job, of course, is to dodge the various walls and pylons that i...
Stone Blade Entertainment and Playdek have teamed up to bring Ascension: Chronicle of the Godslayer to Android.
Ascension is a free, Bronze Award-winning deck building game that our original review called "clever and tactical."
To celebrate its new Android launch, and the advent of Gen Con Indy 2014 (which began August 14th), Playdek is running a sale for Ascension's expansions. See the list...

Bik
By Zotnip - buy on Android (58p / 99c)
Bik is a blast from the past. If you ever played Space Quest it will conjure up some old memories, I'm sure. Although it doesn't quite live up to that classic game.

If you need a new musically-charged dodging game then Size DOES Matter should entertain that desire.
Inspired by Super Hexagon, it's a neon punch-up of a game that involves resizing yourself, block-by-block, to fit perfectly through a gauntlet.
It's a fast-paced game with simple controls: one thumb controls position, the other controls size. All it demands is that you keep up with the beat t...
Lego Fusion sets and the corresponding apps are now available in the US.
As the name implies, this is a 'fusion' of real Lego bricks and mobile games.
Across the four different sets, you construct defensive towers, vehicles, and towns. You then scan your creations into your mobile or tablet to use inside the game. This is all detailed in our previous post.
Each Lego Fusion set gives you 2...
Remember when we used to play multiplayer games in the same room as our friends? Crazy times.
Nowadays, of course, we're all too spread out and busy/lazy to haul our backsides over to someone else's house for our competitive gaming kicks.
Consoles embraced the whole online gaming thing ages ago, but nowadays you can also get online with your Android phone or tablet.
