Hey all! Just to let you know that I'm on holiday right now! Hurrah! Here's a couple of holiday snaps for you And below, the view that inspired my game 'Sunshine': Pretty happy at the moment! Catching up with the Mothersheep and Fathersheep, and I'm pretty relaxed! I guess that's what a holiday is? It's been so long I barely remember! :O However, I'm already thinking lots about the game and will still be working on it! Just in a more relaxed way for a month! Will catch up with you all soon! QS =D
Hey all! Hope you're well! Just thought you'd enjoy a bit more from the game! Hurrah! Here's a peek at a *possible* trench run level! No guarantee it'll be in the game, but wanted to try it and see what I came up with! (especially considering the game's influences!) And here's a short vid of a water test via twitter: https://twitter.com/Quantum_Sheep/status/619669089338966017 Because, you know, why *shouldn't* there be planet levels? With water in them?! So yeah - I'm far more relaxed, but still working here and there! Hope your weekend's awesome, and catch up soon! QS =D
It does the same to me, believe me! And I'm making it! No promises! We will see! ----------- On a less happy note, I wanted to just pass on my condolences to the family, friends and co-workers of Nintendo's president, Satoru Iwata, who passed away recently Such very sad news. Big sheepyhugs for them, and I hope his memory lives on at the company, in his games, and in the hearts of people he brought a smile to. QS
Hey all, hope you're well and enjoying the weekend! Usually, I post something on Twitter for #screenshotsaturday but as I'm on holiday, I've not really posted any new Angel Wing pics. But seeing as it's you, and you've been so well behaved, I thought I'd post something here just for you lot! This is just a test to see what nebulas might look like in the game. It'll probably be different in the final game, but I think you can see the direction I'm heading in (forwards, I hope!) Will catch up with you soon! QS =D
Thank you! I'm so glad you like it! *curtseys* (also, you should see the nebula moving... ) *Tries to coax the game out from hiding behind him* I'm sorry, you've made the game blush and it's gone all shy! Bless! But I'm sure it'll be very grateful when it's calmed down a bit QS =D
Hey QS! Glad to see ya back! By the way, I'm totally digging the way this is coming along! Looks fantastic! Gonna be insane! Love your sense of humor too, man!! Keep pounding on it!
Hey thanks! I'm not 'back' back - I'm still on holiday! BUT I have been busy mucking about with the spare time I have, doing this and that game wise. It's all useful knowledge to acquire. I'm almost done on another game, but that will be PC only to start with - with any luck I'll finish AW and get this other game out on iOS after that. Maybe. Really not decided yet! But everything I do is helping AW in some way, and I wasn't planning on working on AW much while on holiday anyway. It's always lovely to poke my head in here though - people are very kind and generous! Thank you all! QS =D
Hey all, hope you're all doing good! My holiday comes to an end this week, and I'll be flying back to the UK on Friday! I really needed the time off - feel very much refreshed and ready to take on this game again! In the meantime, here's a pic of a space dock kinda structure - the big capital ships you've seen previously can fit inside that! :O Will speak to you all soon! QS =D
Woohoo! \o/ Take a pew why don't you (see what I did there? DID YOU SEE?) and have a look at another shot from the game: To be fair, while an 'in-game' shot, it's actually of something you'll probably never see - an 'over the shoulder' view of an enemy ship And I posted a couple of 'influences' shots on Twitter - this is StarHawk from 1979 :O Which is a pretty rubbish game these days, but I still think it looks lovely! I'll keep you all updated - just getting used to being back (I landed back in the UK last night!). Have a great weekend all! QS =D
I also wanted to say that while I was on holiday I spent some time working on other games - just trying out different things. The great thing is that doing that actually feeds into Angel Wing itself. For example, one game is a visual novel type thingy. While this is worlds away from the pewpewpew(!!!) of Angel Wing, the actual method of calling text to appear in the game can be transposed to telling the story within Angel Wing. Here's a pic of that: I might try and finish that game as it'll be simple and free (probably!), and will help Angel Wing immensely. There's still a lot of work to be done on Angel Wing, so getting these systems set up and working elsewhere will help a lot! But we'll see! I'm still getting used to being back and readjusting to the old normal being the new normal again! Tea is my constant! I should be ok! QS =D
