‘Bulb Boy’ Goes Mobile On July 21
The two-man team at Polish developer Bulbware is bringing the quirky 2D point-and-click horror adventure game Bulb Boy to mobile platforms, starting with iOS on July 21, followed by Android sometime after that. The game released on PC last October to considerable acclaim and comparisons to The Binding of Isaac. It stars “a boy that is a bulb” as he uses his unique ability to make the area around him glow a sickly green so he can illuminate the darkness and save his Grandpa-raffin and Mothdog.
Other features include the ability to seek out secrets that have been scattered throughout the house, relive Bulb Boy’s childhood memories or play as other family members in flashbacks, dialogue-free bubble speech — so you can “watch the story unfold in animated clouds” — as well as “many sizes and proportions” of poop.
The mobile versions will bring with them a handful of improvements ranging from optimized game performance to enhanced sound and a new lighting system. Stay tuned for the Android release.

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
