@dannys95 Don't worry, this isn't supposed to be a horror game. No bunnies this time I admit that I haven't played Space Ninja, so what do you mean by zooming in? How does that work? The turbo-boosting is a good idea. We probably won't have much time to change the gameplay for the first release, but always good to keep these ideas in mind for the future.
LOL OK. Look at the YouTube video. You have to avoid the obstacles so if you tap, it slows down and zooms in.
Ah, I see. It's kind of like a brake for your space shuttle. I think that trick might break up the gameplay pacing on Harbor Master a little too much. Right now, the pace really ebbs and flows according to how well you're doing, so it really gets you in the zone. Space Ninja looks cool, btw. I'll need to get it
So our artists have been working round the clock, and the art is starting to look freaking amazing now. I'll post up screens as soon as we have a final version. Also, we've been playing around with the gameplay a lot. The seas are getting rougher.... One word for you: cyclones More coming soon!
Man, he hasn't posted there in forever. Photography kind of went by the wayside after the birth of Imangi Studios. Hmm... They are freaking amazing. You're playing along, got your paths all laid out, feeling like you're so awesome, and then the cyclone goes by and turns all your ships around. Holy crap Also, after extensive meteorological research in the past 2 minutes, I decided the better term for these guys is "cyclones," not typhoons. Editing post accordingly.
Nah, it's just a pic I found funny. I'll PM you now hang on. That sounds awesome!! Can't wait to get my hands on this (I'm a tester so I'm a bit ahead, yeh!!)!!
New Screenshots! Beta coming TODAY! I've got new screenshots! Our artists, Jungdae and Kiril, have done an amazing job. Here's what Harbor Master looks like now: The game itself has also changed quite a bit, and it's freaking addictive Also... the beta is coming out TODAY! Anyone who has ever beta-tested for us before or has given us your UDID, you're automatically in. We still have a few spots open, so if you're interested, PM me your UDID and email address. I've been playing a LOT - let's see how long it takes you guys to beat my records
WOW. This looks freaking cool! What's the gameplay like? The art work is amazing! Another quality game from Imangi Studios, yeah? Sweet!
Wow, this looks amazing. I am kinda hyped for it! I hope you have a cool feature to distinguish you from flight control. If not, the effort might not pay off (turbo pun).
Yay - thanks for all the great feedback, guys! Yes, our artists are totally awesome. And Jungdae is so cool for going along with us when we basically told her to scrap a month's worth of work and go in a completely different direction. I'm getting a ton of DM's from you - really excited to get all your feedback! Don't forget to include your email address. We need it as we actually need to send the beta out as an attachment. There are still spots left, so keep it coming!
Yay! it looks amazing. I never heard from keith about beta testing but I figured it was cause the beta wasn't a public build yet?
Yeah, we haven't started the public beta yet - just did some testing with family and friends so far. We've got your info already, so you'll be getting this one today
Wow, the updated artwork looks great. If you need any more testers, I sent you a PM with my information.
Turak, Walky - got your info, thanks for the help! We still have maybe a couple more spots left, so if anyone else is interested, this is your chance! Everyone who sent me their info - thanks again for the help! We'll be emailing you in a few hours!
