Finally!
Well, 18 months after starting, Refender is finally released today.
problems with graphic artists and (lack of motivation tbh, as this has happened before at the final stages) caused untold delays.
I found someone who cleverly completed the outstanding graphics in the existing style (difficult) and an expert player who helped with the level design and difficulty.
Not to mention the 200+ playtesters who just couldn\'t stop feeding back new ideas (even 2 hours after final release... grrr!)
Anyway, next step is cabinet artwork completion and deployment and I\'ll be happy!
Still, gotta be patient as this wasn\'t a commercial exercise and everyone concerned isn\'t being paid for their efforts, so can\'t sharpen the pointy stick too much
It\'s been a blast, but that\'s the last game on version 1 of AppGameKit for me. I had to work around so many issues and redesign so much that it got to be a bit of a chore in the end; however, looking forward to doing something now on V2. I\'ll need to get some collaboration organised (graphic artist and perhaps 3D designer) as things just take far to long to do on your own
As the previous topic is closed, I will post more screenshots and video links here as well as the location to download the completed game.
