H+V: Wha Happen?

Some folks have been wondering why there hasn’t been any updates on our iPhone game “Heroes and Villains” recently. To be precise, “Wha happened?”

Do you guys and gals remember H+V? Here’s an uncut video of the latest build that never got released to jog your memory, or introduce you to the concept if you haven’t heard of it yet:

(also check out the work Chris and his voice acting friends did for the VAs)

The main stumbling block with releasing the game is that there are some interface problems. Right now its too hard for most people to pick up and play – which is a required aspect of iPhone games.

There’s also the question of being able to produce enough level content to make the game worthwhile. I wanted to aim for about 50 levels. There’s a fair amount of work involved in that, and I want to be sure that it’ll be worth the effort.

To whit, I’m employing the aide of some of my indie game developer friends – to have them assess, praise or destroy what I have in the game now, and hear how much potential they think it has. I think it’ll at the very least be educational; hopefully it’ll lead to the game improving and eventually being released.

For kicks, I’m also interested in finding out what you guys would like to see me spend my time on…

What's a good time for TIGJam Winnipeg?

Bits & Blots

Adam-art-Friday ended with some new, fresh, baby-bottom background buildings. Originally Chris’ idea, Adam fleshed it out and made it HAPPEN. He also replaced the backdrop image with more sexy!

In other news, our very own Ian Holowka has been working on music for H+V. But so has our very own Christopher Lobay. Recently Chris and Ian collaborated on the same track. For your development-blog-following enjoyment, I’ve included both versions so you can get a sense of how the track… changed.

In sad news, we’ve exceeded the iPhone’s feeble memory barrier with all our wonderful sounds that we recorded last weekend. :( The result of our efforts are random crashing and rampant frustration. The solution: remove and compress?

H+V Voice Acting

Chris organized some of his friends at Ray’s house to record voice acting for Heroes and Villains. It was a good time. :)

H+V Mo' Gameplay Video

Polishing on our iPhone game “Heroes and Villains” continues. Chris added some placeholder sound effects, Ian’s been tweaking the level design, and the GUI is in the process of getting a visual and functional upgrade. Adam and Clemens’ art looks really great on the hardware!

I love it when a plan comes together. :)
