Despite yesterday being a fairly robust night of new game releases, it was also one with a few quirks. Extreme Bike Trip and Clumsy Ninja appeared to have been merely soft-launches, which was disappointing, and Tiny Death Star took its sweet time finally launching worldwide, though it eventually did hit. Football Heroes, which we noted was set to hit at midnight, also decided to take a little longer than expected. Amongst all this was a smattering of more new games that slid under the radar, so with that here’s a brief list of some new games released this week that you might have missed.
