We Have Lift Off: Rovio's Brand-New Angry Birds Space App Now Available. Draw Something - Klobb's Posterous. GDC 2012: A look at 'Tiny Sheep' and 'Pocket Minions' Last week we had a chance to sit down with Kathy Fung, founder of SiuYiu, the studio behind tower-builder Vegas Towers HD [Free].
She showed us two games that should be coming out in the next few months, and we have to say, they're pretty charming. First up is Pocket Minions. This is a tower builder of a different sort, and it's pretty adorable. It's also strategically complex in a way that some similar tower games don't quite pull off. The goal is to create a perfect working ecosystem where your tower will produce and protect your minions and your minions will give you the means to keep building your tower. The minions are full of character, and you can drag them around to do your bidding. While this all sounds like the perfect recipe for an IAP currency system, we've been told Pocket Minions will be a premium title without purchasable currency, so you're going to have to manage your tower through hard work and careful planning.

Adults Now Spend More Time With Mobile Devices Than With Print Media. Adults are spending more time with their mobile devices than they're spending with print media, according to a report released Monday by eMarketer.
According to the New York-based market research firm, the average adult consumer spends 65 minutes a day on their mobile device, while they spend only 44 minutes with print media--26 minutes with newspapers, and 18 minutes with magazines. This is the first year since eMarketer began taking their time tally in 2008 that adults have spent more time with mobile devices than with print. What we don't know from eMarketer's findings, however, is how much of that time spent with mobile devices is spent reading newspapers and magazines online or in apps on a tablet. Meanwhile, despite reports of a growing trend of consumers cutting their pay TV services, eMarketer found that adults are actually spending more time than ever in front of the largest screen in the house.
