Recently, Rovio has confirmed that they have big plans following the huge success of Angry Birds Space. They have acquired the IP for Casey’s Contraptions, which is a popular title for iOS users. Rovio intends to re-brand the game and then launch on both Android and iOS, followed by many more platforms. Ville Heijari, VP of franchise development had this to say on the acquisition:

Working with Noel and Miguel has been fantastic, and this is a game that we all fell in love with from the first play. The gameplay is a perfect fit in our arsenal with its approachable, fun and highly addictive take on the physics puzzler genre.

Watch the video below and let us know what you think of this game. It seems like another ‘cutesy’ physics game, which is always welcomed.  

In two days, Angry Birds will try to return to relevance with their newest body of work, Angry Birds Space. And that’s all we pretty much have to say about that.

According to NVIDIA’s VP of Mobile Content, Rovio may be looking into ways of making Angry Birds more visually complex for users. Speaking at the Mobile Game Forum, Mr. Trevett was quoted as saying, ”Let’s just say Angry Birds can do a lot more. There’s lots of things Rovio could do in terms of particle effects or volcanoes exploding in the background.”

In no way did he come out and say 3D Angry Birds, but he did mention that there was no reason Rovio could not move into using 3D physics engines for the creation of their games. So should we all keep our ears perked for a possible 3D Angry Birds? I would play it.

Rovio is about to release a spooky addition to the Angry Birds franchise just in time for ghoul-filled holiday. We see a few birdies dressed up in costumes and then they stumble upon a bucket filled with candy(?) There is minor speculation (I stress minor) that it could be none other than Om Nom, the beloved creature from Cut The Rope inside the bucket. 

Can’t get enough Angry Birds? Today, Rovio just pumped out an update on the Android Market for the original Angry Birds app. Nothing too crazy, but you get 15 new Mine and Dine levels. That should tie you over for a bit. Is it a problem that whenever I think about the Mine and Dine levels it makes me want to play Minecraft? Everyone here still down with word being that of the bird? Have fun!

Cheers everyone who sent this in!

We told you to grab your towels and tanning lotion yesterday, and here it is. Rovio has just released the newest installment to Angry Birds Seasons in the Android Market, and may I say that it’s “pigtastic”? I think I’ll stop right there. 30 new levels of destroying pig fortresses.
