"There are cops gone bad, double-crosses, and frame-ups - all the classic elements of a gritty detective story, but with the added challenge of a protagonist who can't trust what he sees," says SWDTech lead writer Jennifer Keating.

Pixel Noir is sure to remind old-school gamers of the games they played in their younger years.

"There are very few retro-style RPGs that have aged with gamers who grew up playing classic RPGs, such Earthbound and Final Fantasy. These gamers are 20 or 30-somethings that are looking for an atmospheric game with great gameplay and a story that's not sugarcoated for children," says SWDTech co-owner Kunal Majmudar.

SWDTech is releasing Pixel Noir for iOS and Andriod devices, and it will be soon available for consoles, PCs and Macs.

Now more than ever, indie video games on consoles and smartphones are the hottest item on the market, and a surefire bet for investors.

"This is something that AAA companies, such as Sega or Nintendo are not able to easily do," says Majmudar. "AAA companies are often large and unwieldy, and investors have an amazing opportunity to invest modest amounts in indie developers and reap huge returns on their investments. This is an exciting, dynamic market for the savvy investor."

Performing sensitive biological experiments is always a delicate affair. Few researchers, however, contend with the challenges faced by Cheryl Nickerson, whose working laboratory aboard the International Space Station (ISS) is located hundreds of miles above the Earth, traveling at some 17,000 miles per hour. Nickerson, a microbiologist at Arizona State University's Biodesign Institute, is using the ISS platform to pursue new research into the effects of microgravity on disease-causing organisms. Nickerson presented her research findings and charted the course for ...

Stem cell-based bioartificial tissues and organs

2013-02-18

Surgeon Paolo Macchiarini has made his name by successfully transplanting bioengineered stem cell-based trachea, composed of both artificial and biological material.

Fighting disease deep inside the brain

2013-02-18

Some 90,000 patients per year are treated for Parkinson's disease, a number that is expected to rise by 25 percent annually. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), which consists of electrically stimulating the central or peripheral nervous system, is currently standard practice for treating Parkinson's, but it can involve long, expensive surgeries with dramatic side effects. Miniature, ultra-flexible electrodes developed in Switzerland, however, could be the answer to more successful treatment for this and a host of other health issues. Today, Professor Philippe Renaud of the ...

The quest for a better bionic hand

2013-02-18

For an amputee, replacing a missing limb with a functional prosthetic can alleviate physical or emotional distress and mean a return of vocational ability or cosmetics. Studies show, however, that up to 50 percent of hand amputees still do not use their prosthesis regularly due to less than ideal functionality, appearance, and controllability. But Silvestro Micera, of the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland, is paving the way for new, smart prosthetics that connect directly to the nervous system. The benefits are more versatile prosthetics with ...

Arrhythmia culprit caught in action

2013-02-18

Using powerful X-rays, University of British Columbia researchers have reconstructed a crime scene too small for any microscope to observe – and caught the culprit of arrhythmia in action.

Presented today at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in Boston, the 3D animated model reveals for the first time how ...
