<cheapshot>And, unlike Duke Nukem Forever, Daredevil Dave will actually be released this century!</cheapshot> Thank you! I have some "footage" for another video which is a bit more silly. There is a lot of dialog from Dave in the game. Maybe I can convince him to participate in this thread! Thanks for the interest guys! BTW, I'd be interested in hearing any jump ideas you might have. I have a ton of my own, but you can never have too many. I still need to add a few more to the game. Each jump is so different than the others...I really think it will keep the game interesting.
I'm actually trying to incorporate another camera view option...a "crash cam". As it is, you have a first person view as you approach the ramp, and you can choose the option to stay with this view until you crash. I may add the option to stay with this "Dave View" during the crash as well, however I'm having some technical issues with it. I've also incorporated AGON leaderboards. Open Feint seems a bit intrusive to me, but I know it's more popular, at least right now.
Me either! We're commited to this deadline (me and dave). It will be submitted by Feb 28th. Apple has been taking up to a week to approve apps these days.
It's been a lot of fun to design. Another project was cancelled when this idea came along. It just seemed like a no-brainer to make this game that the other game got shelved. I'm happy to receive such positive responses! Thank you!
Hmm. Missed this one before, it looks like it's going to be pretty sweet. Humorous, graphically decent, and entertaining. I'll be looking forward to this one when it comes out.
It's getting close to complete. A few more jumps still need to be added. If anybody has an idea it's not too late to get it in the game. Hmmm there will be a lot of promo codes after release...what to do with them all...?
Instead of jumping too things why not jump of off things, ideas : Standing on a mall rooftop you have to jump of into a swimming pool thats on another roof. Theres an airaplane taking of and you have to jump over the airaplane if you hit it it blows up and you die if you miss it you get sucked up into the plane prapellas, haha..
I actually thought of jumping through a passing train...well jumping over the flatcars and not getting crunched by the taller box cars. Thanks for the ideas! One thing about Dave - he can't die. His doctors are miracle workers I guess. Even after being virtually vaporized by those helicopter blades he lives to jump another day!
But boy howdy can he take some NASTY falls that will have you the player grimacing in pain. One of my favorite bits so far is seeing him careen down the Grand Canyon!
Every day I keep checking, hoping that this is out. This definately is going to be the game to get. Fun to play and hilarious to watch.
Believe me, you will know when it's out. There is still work to be done. I'm fairly certain it won't be out before March 1st. Feb 28th is the deadline for submittal to Apple. I hope! It's looking like it will make the deadline.
schplurg, whenever you get it done I will be getting it. I dont want to rush you, the more you add the more fun we all will have. This looks like the most fun app in the app store.
Love the ragdoll deaths. Crash physics aren't exactly accurate, but hey, it's a ragdoll so I'm happy!
Heads Up! I'm going to have a little contest to giveaway a pre-release promo code! The winner will receive the code when Apple makes them available - in other words, not right now. You will be able to redeem the code before the game is released (if you're quick enough!). I'm trying to decide if I should do it now (8pm Pacific time), or wait until tomorrow. Any opinions? LOL
