Art Thief is a game about the legendary artwork thief John Robie.

Robie travels from one city to the next on his quest to steal all the major artwork in the world.

Each level is a museum dedicated to a single major artist. Robie enters after closing and has to find the artist's five major masterpieces before the museum opens again.

The problem is that not only is each museum crawling with security and alarms but he has to make sure he steals the correct paintings! John Robie won't get far if he walks out with a Monet when he needed a Matisse!

Pocket Guy version 1.3 is now live!

Pocket Guy 6:07 PM No comments :

I've been spending the last few days working on Art Thief, including writing a Tile Editor which speeds up the level design.

The Picasso level is complete and I intend to finish the Van Gogh and Matisse levels tomorrow.

Version 1.3 submitted to Apple!

It should be out next weekend.

This version implements a number of changes to the underlying game engine which allows me to add further characters quickly, including Karen in the next update.

Let me know if Arnold turns out to be too annoying!

Additional features being added to 1.3

Pocket Guy 7:22 AM No comments :

I decided to add some interesting features to version 1.3 so it won't be sent to Apple until this Thursday.

For one the user will be able to drag Pocket Guy and his guests to whatever they want them to do, so for example Pocket Guy can be dragged to the TV if the user wants him to watch it.

Arnold is Pocket Guy's neighbour and they share a connecting roof. As you can see his main hobby is body building, something he never tires to remind Pocket Guy of.
