Recently on Offworld, as we slowly recover from the hangover of GDC, a quick look back at the things you may have missed:
GDC things: 2D Boy and Polytron giving their top 10 ways to market indie games, a fantastic new trailer for Polytron’s Fez, Keita Takahashi’s Noby Noby Boy coming to the iPhone as his original Katamari Damacy gets revamped for PS3, LucasArts vet Tim Schafer’s first point & click adventure in a decade.
Also, streaming video of both the Indie Games Festival Awards and the Game Dev Choice Awards, experimental PC game Achron lets you manipulate time for strategic multiplayer battles, and prolific prodigy Cactus lets you play his method of creating brilliant games in four hours (above).
iPhone things: Hand Circus spin Rolando into a powerhouse franchise with two new sequels due by the end of the year, and we search desperately for an iGameBoy case.
Console and handheld things: Fans of underdog RPG Earthbound/Mother 3 take ownership of the series with an amazing DIY guidebook, a new downloadable app in Japan turns your DS into a portable streaming game music receiver, Introversion publish confidential docs on bringing Darwinia to Xbox 360, and D2 creator Kenji Eno returns to consoles with a jaw-droppingly gorgeous retro-futuristic balancing WiiWare game.
Art, toy, music, and misc. things: preorders open for Mezco’s LittleBigPlanet toys, a new series of NES box art for modern day games, a new guide is published for following Pokemon on Twitter, and 6955 remixes the Fez soundtrack live.
