I was going through old files and I found some nice old screenshots and decided to share them here with some background story. Over a year ago I decided to mock up one of ideas I was keeping back in my head. I spent and evening and came up with this: I liked it so much that I decided to pause the other game I was working on at that time and to prototype this one. The idea was simple so I was planning to spent like 3 months on it and release it as a free title with some adds. I don't like this model a lot and I just couldn't force my self do it this way. So I started iterating on the ideas to not waste the potential I saw in this game. The mechanics were so simple that you could figure it out just by looking at the screenshots so I was scared to post anything during the development. Plus I worked on this in my free time so I had no idea how much time I'll need to finish it. I tried some different styles and color pallets like this ones: But I wasn't quite happy with those so decided to go back to the first vision I had. The one I liked the most. I tweaked it a bit and the game looks like this now: At the end I really like how it came out. Plus those colors just like every other detail in this game have a meaning for me. Only few days until follow.trail is out!
Hey everyone! It's only 2 days left until follow.trail hits the App Store! The game is approved and waiting to be released so I hope everything goes smoothly on August 10th. Since I have some "free time" I figured I'll prepare something special for you. I'm going to post on some promo codes on the release date but not the usual "copy and paste" way. That would be boring I'll keep you posted here... Stay tuned!
follow.trail is now Available on the App Store! ...and I hope you'll like it!
