History
In 1992, an person named Ida Barb formed Axis Games, because she dreamed about being an video game company; and wanted to make that dream come true. Between 1993 and 2001, they developed parts of many games, and that all changed in 2001 when they wanted to make an platformer game that is great for beginners. The first game they made was Xing! released on January 9, 2002 for the GameCube and PlayStation 2. It was an 3D platformer game "with an zing". It included an beginners mode and an expert mode. These modes vary in difficulty. When the user plays in expert mode, they can unlock weapons and level them up (one being the Flair Gun, which can be upgraded up to an Yotta-Flair). People loved the game for its varied gameplay, modes, and weapons, and the game got an 89 on Metacritic. Sequels of the game were made, like one called "Flair Exposion", released in 2004. In 2009, another original game was made, called "BlockWorld", which is another platormer game, for the Xbox 360, PlayStation Portable and the PS3. The mission is to stop an corrupt business tycoon who wants to destroy BlockWorld. The character and all the characters in the game were blocks, which varied in colors so they can be more recognizable. The levels are side-scrolling, and the Yotta-Flare from Xing! is available in the final levels, and the player can jump and run on ceilings by moving the analog stick and can fall onto ropes and jump boosters, and new obstacles like "sparky hills", fireballs and more, giving the game more variety, and completing the worlds will stop the business tycoon's operations one-by-one. The game was later ported to the Wii, but users had to hold the B button and swing the Wii Remote up to get on either the floor or ceiling. BlockWorld 2 was released later in 2012 for the Xbox 360, Wii U, PS3, and was later ported to the PS4 in 2013. The graphics were improved, the player had the ability to unlock trails, and some of the obstacles were simplified. There was an new gameplay mechanic called the "Elevating Block". When the player falls on this block, it will start moving right and upwards as well. When the player flies off the block, the block disappears to never be seen again. There was also an new character - an companion to the player, named Null. The companion spoke and congratulated the player whenever the player did something, like defeating big enemies. The game received critical acclaim, and was considered "the best PS3 game that everyone would love". A couple more sequels of Blockworld were made, but DangitTanget doesn't want to make this page hard to read. On May 9, 2018, Axis Games' first original racing game, Bobsled Championship, was released. Instead of karts, bobsleds with nitro jets were used instead. All of the maps were in a snowy setting, and players can choose characters from other Axis Games titles.
