First released in Japan on April 21, 1984 and later on globally was a game called "Duck Hunt" for the Nintendo Entertainment System, and in 2016 this will be a brand new twist on this game.

Biggest change is now instead of being the hunter you will take control of the bird and will have to dodge attempts at your life by flying around and pulling out all the evasive tactics to avoid doing so, in the original there are several ducks, so in this case there will be several hunters, on screen will show a rough flight path however there will be very little indicators telling you where the hunters are hiding out, you may stray away from the flight path however there will be restrictions about how far out you can go.

This game can be connected to VR to allow the users the sensation of flying over beautifully 3D rendered environments, players will have 3 lives to deal with and each level they get through will increase the difficulty and length of the flight they need to make.

Being shot 3 times will result in Game Over, can you survive and become a Free Bird?

Poi E is a game that utilizes a camera and Poi made with a particular colour to help the game identify it, this will primarily be a small tool to help learn the art of Poi and will be most useful to the younger audience although can be enjoyed by all.

Gameplay is similar to other camera required games like “Just Dance" where players will stand in view and go through movements to set the game sensors as well as allowing the identification of the poi the user has, you will go through tutorial stages to learn techniques and movements, with players being graded on the accuracy of their movements to the beat playing.

Once players have completed all the tutorial sections and feel they have mastered it they will be given the chance to learn and ultimately perform the poi to the unofficial New Zealand Anthem, “Poi E" by the Patea Maori Club.

Alex, the Righteous Digger is the owner of a struggling farm, his land was not conditioned enough to grow all that was needed to help earn the living he wanted to have for himself, so making a deal with god was his last ditch effort to save himself and his farm.

Who he thought was God was really the devil and he had other plans and caused these plants to grow faster than was hoping and gave them a cruel twist…they eat humans, so you are tasked as Alex to take out these plants and not to let them over grow and take over the farm and ultimately stop them from eating you.

Armed with only a shovel you will be required to run left and right on screen digging up these plants before they grow big enough to eat you, the longer these plants grow the more it will take for you to dig them up, there will be cool down periods where you will be given a rest and be given the chance to upgrade your shovel as well as purchasing power ups including dynamite for an explosive finale to these pesky plants!

This game is aimed to be played by those who wish to kill time and cause havoc as a form of stress relief, you will take on the role of some sort of god and control the weather to cause as much destruction through a massive storm as possible, you will simply be required to drag elements from the top of the screen down over the world, combining different elements can cause different reactions changing the storm.

Players will be given the option to choose from several backdrops to set their storm on, Choose from creating a storm over the ocean, a busy city or the countryside.

Similar game mechanics to that of doodle god, with a beautiful visual world to display the incredible storm you create, the art style would be one that creates a calming environment to look at and not overly flashy or bright to cause too much stimulation in the brain as the main aim is to help the players with stress.

Platform: Most suitable would be browser or mobile as it is mostly click and drag.

A brand new game has been released where you connect up to VR however this game has been corrupted by a mysterious figure only known as "The Game Master" and you cannot escape the game until the final boss has been defeated.

Cross Between the concept of Sword Art Online and Kingdom Hearts.

Characters have been kidnapped and scattered throughout the gaming universe, without memory of who did it or where they are, locate these characters and return them to their own world.

To get to each world for the first time you will need to find the door connecting the worlds, however you will not know what world you are being transported to until you are there, each world comes with its own different enemies and quests to help the remaining characters as well as to help the lost character.

Fight through and restore order to the gaming universe and once all have been returned to their rightful places their memories will be enough for you to piece together the mystery and confront "The Game Master".

Battle will take place in real world combat like that of kingdom hearts, unique weapons iconic to each world can be found allowing for greater damage in that world, and however stats may be higher for particular weapons you will have reduced damage for other worlds, along with generic weapons that can be used with no penalty in differing worlds.

This is a turn based strategy combat game similar to that of 'Final Fantasy Tactics' and 'Fire Emblem'.

The story behind the game is that you are on one side of a war between rooms, the toys you had and played with as a child when you are not around come to life (who would have thought that Toy Story was based on real life?) and like all brothers and sisters they do not get along, across the hall is the room of your sister with all her Barbie's and other soft animals and unicorns, on your side, the little green army men dinosaurs and other stereotypical toys for a young boy.

Each turn you will move your army, dependant on their speed value across the battle field to move closer to the other room, however a direct route is not always the best as you will be required to drop to the ground in "toy mode" if any humans walk near and if they spot you out in the open in the hallway you will be placed back in the room.

Different troop types allow for faster movement through the room as well as the distance required to attack from as well as heal other members from your party, each member can only move once per round and if that player has "died" by the end of the round that character is lost and cannot be used again in further battles.

An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. "A fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy.

"It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego." He continued, "The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?"

The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."

Game opens on a village elder reciting this myth around a fire to several of the children of the village; this introduces the player to the wolf concept and gives a small incite to how the game will play out before even starting. The scene ends and then showing the same elder awoken to the screams of women and children, the village is being invaded by the white man here you learn the elder was a great warrior in his time and he joins the fight with the rest of the warriors to defend his village, with no hope as the village is over run and you are outnumbered you are forced to flee, and here begins the journey to reclaim your land.

Explore and scavenge for resources as well as experiment with the basic crafting system where you can make items such as arrows as well as blow darts and various other weapons, this game is very open with the story as decisions you make will craft how the story unfolds and moulds the main protagonist, with the wolf concept being huge with how the story develops, if you make decisions feeding the evil wolf your demeanour will be more negative and hostile, while feeding the good wolf will make you more forgiving and compassionate while trying to restore your family and village while keeping peace.

This is primarily a simulation game (similar to the style of Game Dev Tycoon) on your first day in a new game design studio and you take on the role in the audio department helping to hire voice actors and help compose the tracks for the games that your company is developing.

Each game you will be supplied with a basic outline as well as the genre and feel, and it will come down to you to select the voice actors you feel would best suit the role required, to do this you will be given a list of people along with audio clips of their auditions and if you feel that voice goes with the character then you can either hire on the spot or call back, ensuring the actors you choose have a good chemistry rating to help your game rate higher upon release.

The second part is the main soundtrack for the title where you will pick from music genre as well as the tone you wish to go for and the tempo/feel, you will then be given a sample track that you can approve or decline (declining would increase production costs and keeping that below the budget is key for success)

Once you have completed both the game will head to production and then you will be rated out of 10 by game magazines/blogs (the same you are rated in Game Dev Tycoon when you release a new game) the more you score the more money the company will make for the game.

"With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility" – Uncle Ben

Heroes in movies or games instantly after being gifted their powers somehow mysteriously know how to use them as if they have had them for years; this game strives to be different giving a unique twist on the super hero genre.

Starting out with a basic character creation you will have control over how YOU the player will look, ranging from hair, eyes, build, skin tone and tattoos/piercings, then you will awaken in hospital after hearing about the story of you and several others being caught in a freak storm while out on a boat you are the last to awaken and are discharged, while at home later during the night you discover things are not as they once were with you, and you discover you have these abilities starting with what you assume is the ability to fly.

As mentioned this game will be different and instead of instantly being able to fly you will be forced to learn how to over time, gaining experience by flying itself, raising your ability to fly will increase the length of time you can fly for as well as how easy it is for you to control the player. The flight mechanics involves the player to use the shoulder/trigger buttons to control altitude and speed while the thumb/analog sticks will be used for stability, the higher your skill with flying the easier it will be to stabilize and not fall from the sky.

Not only will the player need to improve and practice these abilities they also will need to improve on their sewing skills to get a better costume, OR if you do not wish to work on that build up your relationships with friends and judge who you feel is trustworthy knowing your secret (perhaps one of them knows how to sew, saving you the hassle from doing so).

Gameplay through the story will mainly consist of the player completing tasks for the locals in the area to build up a reputation (tasks including helping cats from trees, collecting items for elderly, stopping attempted robberies and helping the local police) also an increase to skill level to help a larger area.

The bigger hero the player becomes the more people that will be out to get them, and the more people who know your secret the more chance of the people you love being used against you, can you become the greatest and save your loved ones?

Distant Worlds is a game designed for VR and targeted towards the music virtuosos and video game music enthusiasts.

Visually you will take up the job of conductor for a symphony orchestra in front of a sold out crowd in the most iconic music halls from around the world, this is not your typical game where you would simply indicate which section to start but a combination of the game OSU!, Along with the crowd meter and story mode aspects of guitar hero.

Progress through each performance and gain positive reviews (indicated by the number of stars you gain each performance, and the music you will be showcasing?

You will perform iconic pieces from one of the most respected and well known game composers of all time, Nobuo Uematsu.

Play the iconic pieces from Final Fantasy 7 "One Winged Angel" and "Aerith's Theme" or "Zanarkand" from Final Fantasy 10, these along with many more pieces from the Final Fantasy franchise as well as other series worked on during his time at Square.

You are the brand new owner of a bar called Puzzles (why is it called puzzles you ask? Perhaps that is the puzzle!)

This is a game that will test your mind and might teach you a thing or two about alcoholic drinks, how this game is played is you will interact with a customer as they sit down at the bar and speaking to you in riddle/drunk talk you will have to work it out to figure out what kind of drink they are after, the more accurate the drink the more you will be tipped.

You will have the ability to talk to each person to try and eliminate options to help you serve them correctly but the longer you take the less of a tip you will get, and tips are what you will use to keep your bar running as you will need to purchase and maintain your stock to ensure not missing out on those tips, should you run out of alcohol to often you will get a poor reputation and get less people coming through, should you also go into the red then that will be game over.

Travelling around is fairly open world searching for survivors and fighting off the horde of zombies paying careful attention to the time as the day and night cycles it will be harder to see your surroundings, find or craft weapons to defend yourself and as you find other survivors you will travel together making the nights that little bit safer for you to sleep and regain energy.

The end goal of the game is to find as many survivors as you can and locate Safehaven city which has been established by the government and other professionals in case anything like this were to happen.

This game would be best suited for console only due to the requirement of the guitar hero/rock band controllers (Guitar, Mic and/or Drum set) also required would be a VR Headset.

This game puts you right in the mix of the AC/DC Live at River Plate show in Buenos Aires, Argentina, However unlike most other games in this genre you will not be a spectator you will have a direct first person view so you can see through the eyes of Brian Johnson, Angus or Malcolm Young, Cliff Williams or Phil Rudd.

You will be required to pass each song with a particular score/percentage to progress through the set list, play your classic great anthems like “Thunderstruck", “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", “For Those About to Rock" and many more.

For the raw musicians out there, there will also be the option to connecting up your Guitar or Bass guitar and playing along on the real thing (unfortunately at this time Drums are not supported)

Top down Casual puzzle solution game for mobile for those that love to cause destruction!

Welcome to Chaos where you get to cause destruction and mayhem without suffering consequences. Game will be played in levels where you simply need to destroy the trains in each level by making them collide with each other, sounds simple right?

Each level will start by informing the player of the length of track they have to use, as well as showing the player the board which will contain already laid track pieces for you to use, at the beginning it shows the number of trains which will increase as you go through the levels to increase the difficulty as well as the speed/time at which the trains will leave the station, this causes you to think of how to set up your tracks so they will impact at the crossroads.

The less track required and less attempts each level will give you bonus points to go towards your total ladder score.

"It has been said that something as small as the flutter of a butterfly's wing can ultimately cause a typhoon halfway around the world" - Chaos Theory

In Chronoshift you will play as Fraser, who after a freak accident during a storm gave him the ability to manipulate time, however he can only go backwards in time while still having the ability to change various actions and shape the future.

This will be played out in chapters with new twists and evils you will need to fight and defeat while defending various people in your life should any of them die you will be given the chance to go back in time and fix the mistakes you may have made to cause that outcome and decisions you make effect outcomes further down the road….the drawback is that depending on how far back you travel or how often you do so, the future you know will become more distorted and reality you see and live in, may not be anything similar to what you once knew.

So at some point you may need to look at yourself and consider do I need to save this person and risk distorting the future any more than I already have?

This would be best suited on mobile as it is more targeted as a casual game for on the go.

In this game you take up the roll as the boss man in a monopolizing television company, It being a big year for television as it is year of the Olympics, however you being a suited fat cat, you do not care about the viewers and only care about lining your own pockets, So in this strategy game that is all you need to do, screw over as many customers as you can by cutting off parts of your business be it your "online streaming site", raising the prices or weakening your satellite signal to cut down on maintenance costs.
