Hi folks,
As I officially (hopefully) finished up the last of the coding work on the game just a little while ago I thought I'd give it a quick mention.
I've always wanted to make a platforming game, so after two years of working own this I finally have. Best of all, you can make your own. I've obsessed over the controls for a ridiculous amount of time, so no matter what you play on and how you choose to control the game, there will be pixel perfect precision and lightning quick response.
Prepare yourself for an epic adventure in a classic, retro styled platforming world. Best of all, It’s your world, so make it your way. Craft your own levels, play them, share them and challenge your friends. Run, jump, fly with a jetpack and bounce off enemies like a trampolining god in your journey to the finish line.
There's a fully featured level editor built-in to the iOS apps (incidentally the game will be a universal app including Apple TV.) The level editor isn't on the Apple TV yet, mainly because it's just so much better to interact with the level editor on a screen. But you can still play the game and connect to the servers to play any of your own or the user created levels.
With your own imagination being pretty much your only limit, you can create a traditional platforming level, as fun, easy or ridiculously difficult as you want to.
Want to make a classic runner style game? You can do that too, a simple switch in the level editor will enable auto running mode.
Use the jetpack in any of your creations to open up a new level of exploration. Or combine it with the auto runner and you have your own flappy bird style game.
(Oh, someone is bound to mention a slight similarity to a certain chubby Italians crafting game (Incidentally I do love a bit of Nintendo.) But I honestly started work on this long before we knew that game existed.)
Here's a little feature list.
Create your own levels and upload them to our servers for the world to play.
Choose from three available map sizes, from normal sized levels all the way up to something where you could almost create an entire MetroidVania (Google it) game.
Easy to use level creation tools, allowing you to create just about anything you want.
Play our game, your game and everyone else game.
Classic platform gaming.
Pixel perfect, precision controls.
Levels you create are synced using iCloud. So you can start off making a level on one of your iOS devices and continue making it on any other of your iOS devices when your out and about, at the office, on the train or sitting on the loo.
Vote for your favourite levels.
Did I mention, there’s a Jetpack. You can use it in levels, or make a completely airborne level.
Compatible with MFI Game Pads on iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch and Apple TV
I'll stop waffling and finish up with this (terrible) video. It's from a much earlier build of the game, a lot has changed since this video was made. But it'll still give you a bit of an idea of the game while I work on the proper reveal trailer.
