			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a neat idea, and no, strictly speaking it&#8217;s not a level editor. But the idea of unique user input into the most efficient way to complete a level is cool.</p>
<p>In <a href="http://www.ninjakiwi.com/Games/Action/Play/Level_Editor.html">Level Editor</a> you have the usual WASD or arrow key controls over a character (admittedly not a very interesting character, the weak point of the game) starting at A and trying to get to the exit, B.</p>
<p>In order to get to the exit you essentially need to complete the building of the level by placing static, moving, dissolving blocks etc. Difficulty ramps up to a medium point, the game is never especially challenging but enjoyable enough.</p>
<p>The original gameplay is what gives this game the feature, personally I&#8217;d like to see the end of stick figures in flash (with <a href="http://www.bornegames.com/">one notable exception</a>) and if a sequel comes along please give us an actual character!</p>
<p>Enjoy <a href="http://www.ninjakiwi.com/Games/Action/Play/Level_Editor.html">Level Editor here</a>, as opposed to <a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Level-Editors/">here</a> <img src='http://ninjakiwi.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Putting it frankly, <a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Tower-Defense/Play/Bloons-Tower-Defense-4.html">BTD4</a> has been an epic, epic project for us. Capping it off is the <a href="http://www.ninjakiwi.com/Games/Level-Editors/Bloons-Tower-Defense-4.html">Track Editor</a> which you can now buy (with Mochi Coins) here.</p>
<p>For those of you that don&#8217;t have coins to spend, you still have access to the community tracks, these are all the tracks built by fellow BTD4 fans using the editor.</p>
<p>The aim in the track editor was to provide something that is simple to use. We had a whole bunch of ideas for what users should be able to do but in the end the most important thing was that anyone should be able to build and test and save a track without difficulty. With this version my 6 year-old was able to do so, so I&#8217;m fairly confident most of you will be able to as well <img src='http://ninjakiwi.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>What you can do:</p>
<p>Build tracks long or short, with loops and water on 4 different backgrounds and 4 different styles of track. Save them and share them (through posting URLs to your track) with friends.</p>
<p>The limitations:</p>
<p>Crossroads can only be used to complete loops, so you can&#8217;t leave parts of them unconnected. Bloons always travel straight on. You can&#8217;t converge multiple tracks into one, nor can you diverge 1 track into more than one. This is pretty simple to do in a hard-coded track like the ones we built in the game but it starts to get really complicated when you (unwittingly even) expect the code to read your mind about what Bloon should go where.</p>
<p>That said, I hope people enjoy it, there is certainly the opportunity to create very hard short tracks, or indeed very hard long tracks (using but heaps of screen real estate).</p>
<p>Buy the Track Editor <a href="http://www.ninjakiwi.com/Games/Level-Editors/BTD4-Track-Editor.html">here</a> or play community built tracks <a href="http://www.ninjakiwi.com/Games/Level-Editors/Bloons-Tower-Defense-4.html">here</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today we have a really cool take on the rocketman/heli game genre (anybody remember <a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Bloons-Games/Play/Hot-Air-Bloon.html">Hot Air Bloon</a>?)</p>
<p><a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Arcade/Play/Helirocket.html">Helirocket</a> is original in several ways, firstly you have a defined level as opposed to an infinitely long randomly generated landscape. The objective is to reach the enemy base, avoiding touching the walls as you go. You need to collect as many ally rockets as you can along the way to boost your score. You can also destroy baddies along the way as well as slow time down for a short period to enable you to do some quick little manouvres to collect things on the way.</p>
<p>Beat my score!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The day has come finally. It&#8217;s been as long a wait for us as for many of you,  trust me. I remember in the build up to releasing BTD3 we thought that we pretty well nailed it. At that time we were 319 days past BTD2 and we&#8217;d worked hard to bring everybody something we loved (and many of you loved it too).  This time we are 419 days on (and 2179 blog comments with 415178 views) from BTD3 and we are proud to bring you <a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Tower-Defense/Play/Bloons-Tower-Defense-4.html">Bloons Tower Defense 4</a>.</p>
<p>This time we&#8217;ve not only stretched out the whole scope of the game with more Bloon types, more tower types and more maps, but in doing so we&#8217;ve also stretched out the range of abilities this game will suit. The very easiest mode is easier than before. The very hardest is eye-wateringly difficult. It&#8217;s through this that we hope we&#8217;ve brought you all a much longer playing experience than ever before and something that people will enjoy playing for at LEAST the next 12 months.</p>
<p>Keep your eyes on the blog for updates etc</p>
<p>Happy playing!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Action/Play/Green_Bomber.html">Green Bomber</a> is a fun physics game where the objective is to destroy targets by dropping bombs on them. In the beginning the task is simple, as you are required to destroy everything. As the game progresses however the need to be careful not to destroy civilian buildings or indeed your own buildings creeps in and this is where things get tricky.</p>
<p>What I really enjoy about <a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Action/Play/Green_Bomber.html">Green Bomber</a> is the simplicity in the gameplay. You aren&#8217;t required to pilot the plane at all, you are simply given one bomb to release in each pass and this is what makes the game work really well for me.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK so I leaked a gameplay vid of this last week and now the real thing is live.</p>
<p>Basically <a href="http://www.ninjakiwi.com/Games/Arcade/Play/PowerPinball.html">Power Pinball</a> is in the same vein as Power Pool and Power Golf. Take a game I like but am no good at and turn it into something I like even more, but ultimately am still not that good at <img src='http://ninjakiwi.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Pinball is essentially a game about lots of noise, lights and tremendous scores. <a href="http://www.ninjakiwi.com/Games/Arcade/Play/PowerPinball.html">Power Pinball</a> I believe takes off where regular pinball falls short. And we got rid of those annoying &#8220;lose&#8221; channels that so many pinball machines have!</p>
<p>This game has a bit of depth so if you find yourself losing with a score of less than 1 Million, persevere, a whole bunch of neat stuff gets unlocked as you play on.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After aaages of waiting, the legendary Sean Cooper has released <a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Action/Play/Shadez_2.html">Shadez 2</a>, and boy was it worth the wait.</p>
<p>This is a real-time strategy game that revolves around the protection of the planet from an invading alien force. You are required to build a wide variety of factories and buildings to enable you to tech up your defending (or attacking) force.<br />
The game has a nice easy build up of difficulty, I had no trouble winning the first few battles, but the challenge ramps up nicely later in the game as you unlock more powerful units and discover ever increasingly challenging Alien hordes.</p>
<p>Thoroughly recommended!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi all, I thought it&#8217;d be fun to release a gameplay vid of our upcoming games. This one is the third in our &#8220;Power&#8221; games series, Power Pinball (the others being <a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Arcade/Play/Powerpool-2.html">PowerPool</a> and <a href="http://ninjakiwi.com/Games/Arcade/Play/Powergolf.html">Power Golf</a>)</p>
<p>Like the others the idea is to take a fun thing like pinball that has been done heaps in flash games but add our own twist. Unfortunately I&#8217;m not great at playing yet, but I can tell you the game has a lot of depth and all kinds of neat stuff happens.</p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>
