In the end this might not be a game for everyone. Those who find themselves always looking for a casual game should check it out, and if Antic continues to build upon it in complexity and depth there will definitely be more to look forward to in the future. Otherwise it's a very solid start for Antic, and with all the improvements that have been made (and are yet to come) Junk Battles is quite clearly a labor of love.
Last month Gaming Union reviewed a browser based, free-to-play game call Junk Battles. Little do most gamers know that one of the key developers behind the title is Fredrik Liliegren, Co-Founder and former CEO of DICE, the now EA-owned studio that brought the Battlefield series to the masses. Liliegren now heads Antic Entertainment as the company's CEO, spearheading Junk Battles' on-going development with Technical Director Mark Mikulec, and Creative Director Jeff Evans, who not to mention both worked on Dark Sector and Bioshock.
Gaming Union sat down with Liliegren, Mikulec, and Evans to talk about Junk Battles, why they're working on browser based games, and where they see themselves in the future.
That was quite informative can't say i'd ever heard of it before might have to have a look.
GamingUnion.net: "Fredrik Liliegren, Former CEO of DICE, the developer behind the Battlefield series, believes browser-based games are becoming a "viable alternative" to home consoles, like the Xbox 360, Wii, and PlayStation 3."
