Hi GGDC - I wanted to announce Soma Games' next project Wind Up Robots. We're in the home stretch here and expect to start submitting the build to various app stores in the next week or two.

 

The games mini site is here: http://thatwinduprobotgame.com/

And here are a few screen shots to help set the mood.

After much hand wringing we finally announced the upcoming launch of WUR on Touch Arcade.
http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=111365
This is a place we could use as much help as we could get. TouchArcade wields a lot of influence in the iPhone/iPad world and a well read, well commented thread in their forum can make a huge difference.
So we'd be much obliged if you swung on by and joined the conversation. Vote early - vote often. ;)

Shameless plug here for our great project now up on Kickstarter.

If you can contribute financially then that is fantastic we have lots of 'swag' as rewards.
If you can't donate you can still help get the word out to as many people as possible.
Please consider how you can be involved.
Either way it'll be great to have you onboard on this exciting adventure.

Already on it. Chris' FB message earlier sent me to look at it. I'm looking forward to seeing how it develops.

Man! I am so excited about Codebearers Continuum! I just pledged! I will tell all my friends and church family. I will be praying that you get fully funded. I hope other CGDC game shops try Kickstarter if they need funding. So, will there actually be t-shirts? Heads up Windup Robots (Soma) and all other game shops: I am a t-shirt collector.  :)

Not clear if this will be our next project to launch, but it is something we're working on.

Our first game, G: Into The Rain was a gravity simulator puzzle game that has has surprisingly long legs. It's set in a world that is sort of Space Opera + Steampunk. The sequel, F:The Storm Riders, is in production but frankly a little back-burnered at the moment so I don't know when it'll be released. Set in the same world, and finally getting to my post, is a graphic novel called "And Also After"

We've produced am 8-page B&W teaser to get the thing rolling and I'll share that here. With so many publishing options out there right now we don't yet know how this will eventually be presented. Paper, motion comic, a mobile app...not sure. But I'd love to get some feedback on the content and art to this point.AAApgs1-8forEmail.pdf

Hey CGDC family

Here are some screenshots from a game we (Crawl Space Games) have been working on for quite a while now. The game is called Lumena and its our humble attempt at a deep meaningful game. Its a phsyics adventure game and its story is told through selected passages from Milton's epic poem Paradise Lost. The game will be in March for IOS and android devices.

Hey all,

We've been working on this game for 2 years (we had some delays in the middle).  

Today it finally finished review with Apple, so it is available in the app store!

App Store Direct Download

I'm fortunate to have befriended a very talented artist in highschool.  Good thing I waited until he finished college for classical animation to work with him!

Basically you use funny tools to distract the monkeys in the farmer's field, so he can catch em and take them out (through the gate at the top).

One of the story sequences where the monkeys recruit new kinds of friends to get at the farmer's potatoes!

You catch stars during the game and use them to buy upgrades and abilities.  The upgrades are necessary for later levels when you have a lot of combinations of monkeys and the various immunities.  

An important strategy is the type of tools you bring into each level

Hope you like it!

I am currently working on a game design based on Noah and the time before the flood, right now it is a browser based game where you can move on a map and perform simple actions on the terrain such as gathering and searching, but right now it still quite early in design, but I have been working on the game for about 6 months, between graphics and programming.  Here is a screenshot of my current work.

This is just a sample in-game, but I also have a facebook page dedicated to updates and screencasts in action!

The facebook page is:

And a live play mode is at:

http://thedeluge.heliohost.org/thedeluge/index.py?session_id=7eccb6...

To move around you can use the arrows in the bottom right, or you can click on space you want Noah to move to, then you can click on the different animated buttons to perform an action.

Well this is what I have developed so far,  I hope you enjoy!

Matthew
