So, here we are again.
Seven months, and even more on this forum, have passed since we had our last news release. But hey, we are really proud of what we have created in that time. We made another little break, to get new inspiration, have discussed about the game and how it will move on, refueled our energy and are now back again! And we have some strange news for you.
We are not sure, if you already heard about this, but we received some strange messages from a mysterious man. He calls himself the "Y.M.C.A. Barman" and comes from Moscow's underground. He said, he stumbled upon a "secret code" and wants you to decode it. Probably that furious man is right and the message in the code might be of your interest. Give it a go.
Here is his Twitter account:
@YMCABarman.
Some really cool things are happening right now. Maybe even for you... However, these strange notes by him aren't the only reason, why we decided to post this news, but we also figured that it's about time to give you some more detail on our latest work! In the last few months TheK worked on getting level 1 working in the engine (maybe some of you saw him saying, that he has problems with starting it.) But here's the good news: After four months of testing, trying and figuring he managed to get it to work properly and one, long, long, chapter is coming to an end.
Said level already had to undergo, several, changes and complete redesigns and it took us a lot of work to get it right - but the concept and level is finally set in stone completely and the only thing that's left to do is: Gameplay!
Many sleepless nights have passed on all the decisions of how the game should start, and the player learn the controls and base game mechanics. And we are proud to say, that we are finishing up an interactive tutorial that will teach the player all the controls, while still keeping it interesting and fun.
...and because a big pile of text, probably, isn't enough after this long time, we also prepared some screenshots for you to enjoy:
So, that's the most recent news for now, if you have any feedback, be sure to drop us some comments and as always: Stay tuned for the next news release!
