Free iPhone Game Company Slightly Social Releases Steampunk Death Race

After completing some 2000 man hours in their spare time creating this highly addictive iPhone game, Slightly Social has partnered with The Amazing Mitchell Brothers to announce the successful release of Steampunk Death Race. The buzz on the street is that this post apocalyptic game may be one of the best new releases of 2013 and gaming fans are lining up to take a crack at this gem.

Reminiscent of old school console games like Rock n Roll Racing, the finished product with steam-powered weaponry in a war-torn landscape is exactly what The Mitchell Brothers set out to accomplish – adrenaline pumping, hover-car combat racing at its finest!

Will your heart skip a beat? Absolutely! Will there be action-packed guns and explosions? You bet your grandmas best biscuit recipe!  What is a Steampunk? Well, to answer honestly, it is a phrase coined describing the hover car racers themselves where the main concept is that it puts the racer(steam-punk) behind the wheel of a hover car in life or death race to the finish, with the world as our death defying playground.

A very simple concept and fun to play, Steampunk Death Race free at the App Store setups out to accomplish one main goal; outmaneuver and fire on other death race opponents with machine guns, plant land mines to gain the upper hand, and turbo boost your way thru an urban industrial landscape to claim victory. There is no society or rules and survival is the key component in this steam-powered death race!

The controls are simple to operate with left and right buttons for turning and the only other thing the user has to focus on is munitions and staying on a course that comes complete with 9 detailed tracks. Fixed or following camera options are available giving the racer full peripheral view of other racers on the track. You will no doubt take a beating after a few races so claim your winning cash and roll into the shop to make repairs, get new armor, or upgrade your death racer.

Slightly Social, an independent gaming startup company based in Canada, is very pleased to announce that you can get Steampunk Death Race as a free iPhone download exclusively from the iPhone App Store. It is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch and iPad and requires iOS 4.3 or later. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.

Slightly Social To Publish MediaSoft Mobile Games in 2013

Good things happen when you get out of your comfort zone.

Recently Slightly Social had the chance to fly to China and visit with MediaSoft (Malaysia) and it’s parent company (Hong Kong).

At first I was hoping we could just do some phone calls or a video skype chat, but then I realized that the best things happen when you are out of your comfort zone, so I decided I should pop some gravol and take the flight =)

As a nervous traveller (with a 2 year old and a wife needing you at home) who’s never traveled more than 5 hours on a plane before, the 19 hour flight to Hong Kong on 1 weeks notice was a bit of a mental barrier for me to leap over. But I’m so glad I did!

We were there to talk about mobile game marketing (getting users) and monetization, as they are just ramping up their mobile game operation to deliver some quality mobile games, but needed some consulting.

Official Press Release

“MediaSoft and Slightly Social’s partnership comes as the mobile app market is growing explosively on the heels of record sales of mobile devices. Last year 364 million computers were sold vs 531 million smartphones and tablets.”

Brad Mills “working” in Asia, watching a 5D movie that MediaSoft made (yeah 5D, 3D PLUS TWO D’s)

The trip went so well, and we enjoyed working together so much, that we decided to create a more formal partnership.

I’m so impressed by MediaSoft’s team and ability to create high quality mobile games that I couldn’t help but want to focus more of Slightly Social’s efforts on publishing and marketing their great games.

So today we are super happy to announce our official partnership for 2013. Slightly Social will be publishing up to 100 of MediaSoft’s games, and directing the company’s mobile marketing and monetization strategies.

We plan to have 4-5 Top 10 games in 2013, if you want to read more here’s an official press release.

Slightly Social is excited and motivated to be working with this great team and I’m personally excited to introduce millions of people to MediaSoft’s fun games.
