There's plenty of games out there in soft launch, some of which have been available for quite some time, but last week it was Rovio and Seriously's titles that caught our reader's attention.
First up in our Hot Five list, however, we have Fyber's David Diaz dropping by to talk about the five trends that will shape mobile development in 2016, including advancements in VR, and increased production costs of games.
Second, Rovio's very quietly soft-launched title, Deminions Unleashed, has been uncovered, and it's a pretty big departure from the company's usual titles.
Third up, we took a look at the making of French developer Godzilab's Pirate Power, and found out how such a miniscule team produced a relatively big game.
And finally, GameSalad's Stephen Nichols talks about why coding is slowly dying, and Seriously has a new Best Fiends game out in soft launch.
