Weekly Game Talk: Scare Spree

This week's game is Scare Spree.

Being one of only a few games making the jump to mobile after the OHR started porting and the game's resent overhaul make this a game worth a look.

Wonder what'll send this week's thread into a downward spiral.

Scare Spree works very well on a keyboard/controller, but its fast pace makes it tough to control on a touchscreen. This is an issue larger than SS or even the OHR itself, plenty of phones come with action games that just don't play well with touch controls. It's something to keep in mind when porting your game over. If you want to design an OHR action game with touchscreens in mind, you've got to start there from the ground up. I got used to the controls since I tested the game and SS is still plenty of fun, but finicky touch controls are an easy way to turn off an audience.

Super Walrus Land: Mouth Words Edition

This is a fun game, but I am really bad at it. I have only been able to unlock a handful of costumes. After a long play session, I sit there with aching fingers and think "I am an old man". teenage-James would not have had any trouble with this :)
