Maybe. Who knows! Unity Technologies, the guys behind the Unity 3D engine, which while being a regular engine is also able to be run in a web browser (see Velociraptor Safari), have announced that it’s been licensed to make an appearance on the iPhone. Sure, it’ll help devs who want to make cheap, good-looking games for the format, but colour me disinterested (on the move AND the iPhone) until I can pick an iPhone up and do naught but run down some feathery raptors on public transport.

What a silly question. Of course you enjoyed Velociraptor Safari. You enjoyed it to bits. So you’ll no doubt also enjoy Flashbang’s latest project, Jetpack Brontosaurus, which is briefly described as “Splendid jetpack dreams of the Apatosaurus named Brontosaurus”. No, I am not making this up. Somebody give these guys some publisher money, and make it snappy. Jetpack Brontosaurus [via TIGS]
The video was but a tease. You don’t know true browser-based good timery until you go play some Velociraptor Safari for yourself. Which you can now do, what with the game out and all. To recap: you drive around, in a jeep, running down raptors. Succeed, you get a slo-mo money shot. That is all. But that’s all you should need. Velociraptor Safari
