The Freeform Jazz Episode – The TouchArcade Show #487​

Oh boy, if you are looking for some hard-hitting video game discussion, this week’s episode is not for you. Eli and I had to record a day early due to Eli needing to go out of town during our normal Friday recording time, and it was already a bit of a dull week in terms of game news. So what you have before you is a bit less than an hour filled with...

TouchArcade Game of the Week: ‘Say No! More’

It may have arrived a bit too late for our weekly round-up, but man has Say No! More ($5.99) completely turned my world upside-down for the past couple of days that I’ve been playing it.

‘Vortexika’ is a Rad Looking Space Shooter that’s Coming Soon from the Maker of ‘Only One’

Some older school mobile gamers may be familiar with the name Ernest Szoka aka RebelBinary by way of the 2014 release Only One (Free), a game based on a somewhat obscure 2001 box office flop starring Jet Li called The One.

‘Chaser Tracer’ is an ’80s-Inspired Arcade Game with a Killer Synthwave Soundtrack that’s Launching Next Week

I guess it’s because I’m a child of the ’80s, but I’m a big fan of the ’80s retro revival of the past few years. Not just in video games but really in all forms of media it’s all of a sudden cool again to have VHS tape filters, neon-soaked everything, and synth-heavy music bumping. Yeah it does feel like it’s getting a little played out at times, but...
