XBLA: Indie Watch: The Alpha Secret Base Collection

Over the past couple of months a Japanese Indie developer going by Alpha Secret Base has been releasing their PC games onto the Xbox Live Indie Games platform. There are now 5 games available, so we thought we'd give you a quick rundown of each. Some of them are side scrolling platformers with a twist, or top-down block pushers, but all of them are 80MSP ($1) and all quite worth their money.

Green Island
Price: 80MSP ($1)

Green Island is a quick puzzle platforming game where you have to collect all of the objects on the screen, difference here being that you collect them by jumping on bubbles that you shoot.

Kaiten Patissier
Price: 80MSP ($1)

You control a girl who much collect all the candy in each level - but you also can rotate the world around, so every surface becomes a platform. There are 50 different levels to complete in here.

Summer Vacation
Price: 80MSP ($1)

Summer Vacation is a game similar to Chip's Challenge and Lolo's Adventure - each level is a scenario where you have to push blocks and avoid enemies to grab 3 star fragments. Not an exciting story, but it can get pretty puzzling over its 30 stages.

Hunters Lunch
Price: 80MSP ($1)

Similar to Summer Vacation, Hunters Lunch is all about block pushing - but instead requires players to only grab one item (the girl's lunch). but most times you'll have to get to your car first, and then your lunch. This game has 30 levels to get through.
