Cloud Girls, our third game, is nearly done.
— September 19, 2008
Cloud Girls is almost complete, which means we may actually release two games in a single month! We're working through the high scores coding right now (this one is a pure OpenGL app so we're changing the high score coding a bit) and have to tweak the gameplay a tiny bit to find that right balance between reward and tough gameplay, but it looks fantastic and might be our best game yet! Visit the Cloud Girls game page for screen shots and more gameplay details.
Our second game, Garden Marbles, is being released soon!
— September 11, 2008
Garden Marbles is within a day or two of being finished. We're proud of this game and will be submitting it to the iPhone App Store by the weekend. Out last tasks have been to track down and eliminate a crashing bug as gameplay ended and the screen transitioned to the game over screen, and to replace the way we generate the position of the obstacles on the various game boards to ensure no trapped marbles. Look for it around September 19 on the iPhone App Store.
Cloud Girls, our third game, is now well into production. Wow.
— September 10, 2008
Although we planned a first week of October release for our third game, Cloud Girls, the game is looking and playing perfectly, and it looks as though we are ahead of schedule. If things continue this way, we'll be releasing it a bit early and may be able to release two games this month. This title features a new, and highly recommended, 2D game framework called cocos2d-iphone that has allowed our team to do some really cool transitions and graphical effects while keeping framerates high and the project size way down. Drop by the Coud Girls page to see the screen shots and read more about the game.
