[Gamasutra rounds up the latest news in the world of App Store gaming, featuring standout releases like TheEndApp, Nihilumbra, Outwitters, and Blind Man's Dungeon.] - Goroid's Free TheEndApp Premieres For iOS A post-apocalyptic take on Imangi's Temple Run formula, TheEndApp is an endless autoscrolling platformer with a focus on survival. - Tiny Wings 2 Teaser Thaws Coldest of Hearts "Tiny Wings creator Andreas Illiger manages sneak in a bit of important information at the end of the trailer: Tiny Wings 2 will be out on July 12 for iOS." - iPhone Game Pick: Nihilumbra (BeautiFun Games) "An enthralling tale, Nihilumbra will have you painting colors across the screen so as to be able to do everything from freezing enemies to adhering to walls. It's by no means perfect but it has a lot of soul and a surprisingly satisfying conclusion." - Tilt To Live Developer Launches Strategy Title Outwitters Outwitters is a free-to-play, turn-based strategy title in which players take on opponents in asynchronous online matches. - Osmos For iOS To Receive Multiplayer Mode "Hemisphere Games revealed that the iOS version of its mote-absorbing action-puzzler Osmos will soon receive an all-new multiplayer mode. Releases for other platforms have not yet been decided." - No Jesus. No Dinosaurs. Just Rymdkapsel. "Martin Jonasson somewhat lamented that 'there will be neither Jesus nor dinosaurs in the game.' However, he posits that rymdkapsel is 'a new take on the classic Settlers meets Dungeon Keeper meets Tower Defense Hipster-RTS.'" - Mobile Game Pick: Blind Man's Dungeon (Skipmore) "Though Blind Man's Dungeon has the trappings of a classic JRPG, players have no direct control over the hero character. Instead, you assume the role of a fairy guardian, who must place blocks to guide the near-sighted hero through enemy-filled dungeons."
