Beta

The beta is now out. It's been sent to those who signed up, some of whom will hopefully respond with some meaningful insight into it and good suggestions. I think it actually came out pretty damn good, and most people agree with me that I've talked to, but we'll see what beta testers and potential sponsors have to say about it. If you want to test the beta but forgot, just pop and email to cataclysmstudio@gmail.com saying so and it will be sent to you. That's all for now.

Beta soon!

Good news today. I have nearly half the levels designed for the beta, and should have the beta ready by Saturday if all goes well. Captain Spaz has said he'll whip up some more music for the game as well, so the release should be sometime in the next couple of weeks. I leave for a week on the 17th of July, so hopefully sponsorship and everything will be worked out by then so I can release it. Beta testers: check your email late Saturday.

I'm currently starting work on level design, which is going somewhat fast. I have the first 2 levels done, and will hopefully have all 20 by next weekend if not sooner. At that point beta will be released and everyone can play it. Everything is going along smoothly. Wooooo.

I know I haven't been posting much on here lately, but don't lose hope. The project is still under way. Moving along slowly but surely. Captain Spaz will hopefully have music done before July, and a non-music beta should be ready soonish.

Level Editor Online

I just completed the level creator/editor today for the game. I'm currently debating whether or not to add it to the final product, which would take a fair amount of work, but also be pretty cool. It's user friendly enough that it could be used pretty well. So, I'll start working on the level design soon. Hoorah.

Level design to go

As implied by the title, level design is the only major thing left on my agenda. I still have a few minor things to add, including the music player, but other than that not much left. I think I'm going to try to make level editor for level creation, which should be fun once it's up and running. That's all for now. I'll post again once something interesting happens.

Discontinuation

Sadly, I realized I can no longer post versions of the game as it comes along, due to possibly voiding sponsorship. Most sponsorships want the game to be exclusive to them, at least for a certain amount of time, and if I went around posting pretty much full versions of the game here, then it wouldn't be exclusive. Sorry. I'll still update on progress as it goes along, and like I said, if you want to beta test then email cataclysmstudios@gmail.com.
