I have to admit Mineko has been one of the games I've been following with keen interest It's nice to see more fresh and polished roguelikes coming to iPhone. Yes, it certainly seems Rimelands won't be far away anymore.
The interest in Mineko is greatly appreciated in turn! I think the results will be worth the wait. Unfortunately my release date(s!) are not set in stone yet... Game development is only a part-time affair for me. Being the lone programmer, designer, and fill-in occasional artist is tough when I have to run my consulting business during the day You can count on Rimelands sales to myself and a number of my friends as soon as it's released... hopefully I can break myself away from playing it long enough to get back to work on my own game projects! Josh, we still need to arrange a real-life meetup someday too
Sounds like a team up of sorts could be in the future. Maybe josh and Russ could help you with getting spirit hunter moving again. I mean with what they learned with ravensword, rimelands and now aralon they could get you some outstanding artwork for your new rogue game
The new video brought me to this game. Looks fantastic. I like the action animations. Can't wait to try this.
Kick-ass, Josh! Good luck to you and the Dicework team on the launch of Rimelands, I'll be watching and waiting for a chance to check this out (very soon I hope)
Yes, there's still some bugs and the later levels need more testing and balancing, but the release is getting close (you can't imagine how comforting it feels to finally be able to write that!) Last batch of screens:
Hey Josh, Good work! Rimelands is looking pretty awesome. Hope the game get the same success as Reavensword! Cheers from Psychoz Interactive team.
Thanks! Dicework and Crescent Moon really hope it does do as well as Ravensword! That is not an easy task - Ravensword was #1 RPG in the US App store for a month straight - there is a lot more competition these days. We will certainly do our best!
from the sounds of it, some great progress has been made in testing, and they are still on schedule for submission (hopefully within a week now)
This game is going to support iPod Touch 2G and 3.1.3 iOS, I hope? And hopefully Aralon will do the same...
Yes, it will - and I will be testing it on iPod touch 1G later tonight to see what happens. No guarantees on 1G support!
