Hey all, I just wanted to post a couple screens of a game we're working on. I'll be posting regular updates, mainly on my Twitter feed @antonyblackett. Let me know what you think and stay tuned as I'll post more as I develop it. It'll be coming out on iOS and Android later this year. Cheers!
Looks nice! There hasnt been a lot of "going down" runners (I assume this is) other than Capt Antarctica and Super Mole Escape so im really looking forward to this one..
Just to clarify, we didn't make Super Mole Escape. Our game, Major Mayhem and Grumpyface Studios game Super Mole Escape were both published by Adult Swim Games. It does look like an endless runner but it's not going to be. There will be elements of endless runners in there but it won't be one. I'll explain more when it's more developed
Aww s***, haha I always screw up which games you and GrumpyFace develop, my bad! I had been playing a lot of Castle Doombad, and I just recently pulled out Major Mayhem again due to the new unlock system (which is great btw) so I think that's what screwed me up. Nonetheless, looking forward to this!
Wootwoo!! So stoked!!! The screens look interesting enough. Can't wait to see the video you upload... whenever... =oP I think it goes without saying, but if you don't have anything else set up already, I'm sure there's quite a few people here who would love to help beta test. Me included. =oD
I'll keep that in mind and possibly ask for testers closer to beta, right now though we're no where near alpha, haha. The game looks nice and plays well but there is almost no content or meta systems in there for goals, unlockables, upgradables and story.
I'm just playing around with Everyplay for our Ski game and here's the first uploaded video. https://everyplay.com/videos/4270178 Does anyone know if I can change this thread's title? I want to rename it as our game is currently called Epic Ski Trip.
Looking forward to this one too Have you tried Microtrip? Its a going down runner based on skill, I absolutely love it
Here's a quick video showing the new chairlifts I coded today! YouTube: http://youtu.be/qld3yiVgRZg And another demonstrating that you can jump out of them whenever you like. YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZSno0OcjcI P.S. is there anyway to embed youtube videos on this forum?
i dig the new videos, keep up the good work! any plans for multiplayer? doesn't seem essential here, just curious
I really like the look of this game, it makes me want to go snowboarding! Interesting choice to make the player wait in the chairlift before going again, it definitely will make the game feel more authentic.
No realtime multiplayer planned at this stage. The random generation makes it difficult to do and the nature of the game makes it kind of pointless as you'll likely never see each other on the huge mountain anyway. You will be able to see and interact with your friends as they will appear and be controlled by the AI. There will also be leaderboards, contests, cooperative challenges etc, but they are all meta game things, not realtime multiplayer. The functionality has to be there as it's a free roaming style game, but there will be an option to teleport to the top of the lift if you like. I just haven't programmed that bit yet. Thanks for the feedback. Stay tuned. I'll be posting more as I build it.
Haha sorry for the stupid question... I meant, is the whole game an open world? Like in a GTA or Oceanhorn sense? So you can ski around in the meta-world and enter races? Or is it more restricted than that?
Still haven't indicated which one was correct. A full open mountain or more restricted, such as open hub areas to explore?
