Bob the Pancake submitted

No comments :

So it took 2 weeks and 1 day.  Tony Crowther won!

The game features 9 levels and the plan is to make around 3-4 updates in the next few weeks with a new level and possibly online leaderboard included.

At the moment 4 new games are in the design phase and updates for Pocket Guy and Art Thief are on their way.

The Flying Pancake?

No comments :

I obviously need a name for the next game, I doubt "The Flying Pancake" will cut it.  All ideas are appreciated!

Anyway here is the first screenshot from it where we can see Bob is bouncing over Paris, France.

What separates the game from the rest of the fast moving scrollers is the puzzle element.  If you notice the picture of Mona Lisa on the right of the screenshot then Bob can puzzle her painting in the correct order for points.  As you can imagine it can be pretty hectic as he has to avoid the red enemies and the gaps at the same time.

Also the game features a triggered puzzle system where switches can activate platforms or remove obstacles if jumped on.

In other news Art Thief squeezed into the top 100 list of the best selling Adventure games on the AppStore.

Now that was quick.  Only 8 days to approve a new application!  Either Apple are getting good at this or fewer applications are being submitted.

Introducing Bob the bouncing pancake

No comments :
He's upside down at the moment but we'll find out later why that is the case.

I started working on Bob last Tuesday and the rather ambitious plan is to have this scrolling arcade game ready in one week.

A more realistic goal is to aim for 14 days which would be "a tip of the hat" to the Commodore 64 coding legend Tony Crowther, who finished several impressive titles in two weeks many many years ago :)

Summer vacation delayed the application submission for a couple of weeks but it is finally in review.
