Futuristic 2D shooter and a bit of humor.

Streamlining Operations

Unfortunately, developing casual games for mobile platforms has become quite a hassle.
There are millions of games and apps available because basically anyone with minimal knowledge can make one, thus, developing a new game makes no sense, markets prioritize the most popular games and don’t really promote new titles unless you have a big fat budget for marketing.

At the same time, there are these stupid new regulations, like GDPR and CPRA. Marketplaces have their own rules, which they change from time to time, like the Google Play Store, which requires updating the app at least once every 2 years, otherwise, it will be automatically removed.
Plus, sometimes I need to update games to fix my own bugs and add new features.

Anyway, keeping numerous games in compliance with all the new rules and regulations is quite a soul-sucking task, so I’ve decided to remove most games from markets except for the two most popular and profitable.

All-in-One Solitaire and All-in-One Mahjong are both available for Android, iOS, Windows 10+ and online.
I will keep updating those games and add new features.

All other games, All-Peaks Solitaire, Shadow Solitaire, Rainbow Lines and Match Jong are only available online at the Pozirk Games website.

At the same time, there is some good news! 🙂
Old Flash games, that stopped working after Adobe stopped distributing Flash plugin, are slowly coming back to life!
Thanks to Ruffle, a Flash Player emulator.
It is still in beta, but several games are working just fine already.
Balloon Express – works!
Feed The Furry – works!
Instant Football – works!
Mad Tanks – works, but there are some bugs and game doesn’t save the progress.
Total Construction – almost works, but not yet.
Resistance Is Useless – not yet.
Space Age – not yet.
Dolly The Sheep – not yet.
Charlie Likes Strawberries – not yet.

Mad Tanks, Space Age and Resistance Is Useless are still my 3 most favorite games.

RiU is featured

Unexpectedly for me, RiU has got Daily 4th Place on Newgrounds and became featured on main page on Kongregate.
While most of the comments on NG were positive, on Kong there was total madness. Hundreds of comments and some of them were absolutely ridiculous. I was trying to reply to these comments and even made some changes to the game, but… 🙂
Anyway, I’ve learned my lesson.

Resistance is Useless released

It took us quite a lot of time to release this game and here it is: Resistance is Useless, a action/adventure/shooting flash game.
In this game you play as Bruno, a delivery boy, who was forced to “take” a gun and start fighting against hords of perfidious aliens.
We have invented 12 different types of enemies, 4 bosses and 15 levels with very tangled storyline for this game.
Hope, you will like it.

RiU. Report 10

All the level are ready. All the sounds a re ready. But I still don’t have graphics for menu.
But after some tests, we have come to conclusion that game is a bit boring.

So, we’ve decided to improve the gameplay, add more enemies, make them flying in different ways, make game scenes shorter, add more items to the shop and polish levels.

Some screenshots from first(polished) level:

RiU. Report 5

Работаю, работаю…

There are a lot of stuff done, but there are still a lot of to do.
I’ve made 3 levels so far and there should be around 20 in total. 🙂
Most of the graphics are ready, different effect are ready too.
We still don’t have SFX and looking for someone, who can make them for us.

I was thinking to post some video of the gameplay today, but I don’t have time, may be next time.
