2 f$&%^#@ weeks and counting and the funny thing is this isn't even that big of an update. Not much has really changed. If episode 4 with co-op takes two weeks just to get approved im gonna kick Steve Jobs in the dick... I kidding i love you apple but seriously...
yea youre right pocket gods update only took like a week and gangstar didnt take that long either.......maybe it got rejected and no one is telling us
Na son Im playin Inkvaders! This game kicks ass! And besides. This update isnt much at all. Honestly, the only thing I want in this update is increased shotgun ROF. The next two updates are a different story......
Minigun? That's either a vast exaggeration or you've seen something I haven't. Shotguns are supposed to be slow and powerful, that's the point.
i expect them to lower the rate of the shotgun.. does not make sense to make it shoot as fast as the minigun.. that's why I was wondering how they could improve the shotgun... maybe increase the ammunition bar? I guess we will have to wait and see what exactly does an "improved" shotgun mean
Minigore dev diary Minigore development news: 1. Jerry Gore is taking shape: I asked Egoraptor about it and he said he would love to voice Jerry! Kimmo and I want to put him into the game and from the looks of it you players want to see it too! What we need next is a big pile of dialogue, thepoisonivy already had some funny suggestions: "Come get me you furry freaks!" "If they ask... tell 'em Jerry sent ya!" "Im gonna teach you things something about manners" "This is nothing compared to the war" "Let me show you how to take out the trash" "Haha, hole in one" "You forgot to take your pills" "Forgot your medicine?... have mine" "Look honey! im exercising!... My trigger finger." Minigun, turrets, bazooka, flamethrower, C4, mines and even a tank have been suggested for Jerry. I personally would like to run around collecting turret parts and then assemble a manned turret of doom & destruction. Tank sounds like the largest amount of work on the development side but it would certainly be epic! And a nice change of pace to the regular gameplay. 2. Minigore composer Tapani Siirtola is working on new music for a new level! 3. We are also talking to Super Stardust HD and Trine composer about doing intese remixes of the music for the insane mode! This is starting to look very likely now but not 100% confirmed yet. 4. Last Tuesday we got HD camera so from now you're gonna get sneak peek videos of the development versions showing upcoming features. (It took some time to learn how to shoot the footage nicely from the iPhone screen) 5. About the PSP version: We hired other talented people to work on this. Kimmo and I will keep our sights locked on the iPhone version. Minigore on PSP is gonna be slightly different because the hardware excels in different things than iPhone. Lack of second analog stick changes things, but it has great buttons so that allows some things which are not possible on iPhone. It can also show about 5x times more characters and stuff on screen than iPhone so that also changes the possibilities. Being former PSP developers we already have the game engine pretty much done so it's not a huge amount of work. maikelg: Remember the teaser trailer with the torch and also the early artwork with the torch? The torch is on the todo list. Our idea is to dim the lights (daytime turns into a night) as a boss unit enters the level, John lights up the torch and holds it in his other hand. Another idea we've been playing around with is gun attached flashlights. That Bob Hunt quote made me lol "I haven't seen this much fur since the sixties!" Fudgeboy: Your idea about a growing furry is great! There's gonna be different furries on the other levels, that are native to that climate. Maybe it could be one of those. I don't want to do any predictions beyond the next couple of episodes. Episode content depends largely on what people demand, it's not a fixed plan by any means and can change overnight - that's the beauty of indie development. It allows us to do quick changes and cater to player needs. (we constantly read iTunes reviews, follow several forums, minigore blog, people send us emails etc.) Now if we could only get those updates approved a bit faster - it would make for a much smoother feedback loop with the community. Speaking of furries here's a brand new death sequence for the Giant Furry: (it looks funny in motion as the body bounces slightly after hitting the ground) Wegmans: We'll see how things go with the co-op multiplayer update. If it proves to be a big hit among players we'll try sneaking further into the multiplayer realm. Kinsey93: Minigore is getting achievements. It's done in a way I haven't seen done on other games. It has something to do with progress... Is that cryptic enough? naythan: The radar can be turned off. The 3d comics will play in front of each episode, and they can be accessed later on from the menu. I'll try to answer the rest of the posts later. It's 6:30 am and I'm totally exhausted. Best Regards, Timo
Yeah if they were to improve the shotgun it shouldn't shoot faster. I think it should shoot with 4 pellets instead of three. or 5... And keep the same ammunition bar. Since Minigore is going to PSP I'd like to see the High scores differ from PSP to iDevice. Would be interesting which one get a higher score. Maybe Buttons beat Touch or Touch beats buttons.
Wow i just want to go into time warp and wake up when everything Timo just said is done! This game is going to be epic in a short while. I think you may be on the verge of a game that can sell iphones. Im verry glad Jerry is going to make it into the game. i first thought him up as a joke but i love how people responded so well. I think it would be awsome if Jerry collected turret parts and then was able to unleash with a massive amount of fire power. I think time will show that Jerry and John will be the most popular Co-op duo in the game. Cant wait!
jerry with collecting turret parts would be awesome in coop mode. my only concern is that i'd only use the turret when things got hectic. as long as he had a standard weapon to use the rest of the time, and then when it got bad, set up the turret and have me and jerry hang out near it and the 3 of us take out everything that came near until the turret expired, that just sounds awesome. like poisonivy, i just want to wake up and have the 4th or so update pop up on my screen.
I love the turret parts idea! very original and unlike other games it doesnt just skin characters with the same ability as the 1st character just a different image, i would go with that idea
