Almost done

ortmon — Thu, 24 Feb 2011 10:30:22 +0000

Hello again!
I’m almost done with the game. The only things left to do is menus and maybe some more levels, and then the final testing with my friends.
The game just turned 1 month old and I must say I’m quite proud to have accomplished so much during this time as I have two jobs, friends and a girlfriend that I have to give some time

I will post screenshots and unit info about the app-game in a few days before release, I’ve chosen not to show so much until now since I think that my idéa is kinda unique and don’t want any big company to steal my idea and produce a clone before my game is released.

Thanks for reading and I hope you find this interresting

Wow almost 2 months have passed

I haven’t updated this site in almost 2 months :O
I have to do better then this. Well during this time I have acctually worked on a other project for the Iphone, I won’t release any screens or anything until the game is complete.
It´s about 20% left of it and it´ll be a mix of RTS/Action/Platforming for two players on the same device!

I´ll post a new update once I’m done with the game.
As for Super Mario RTS i’ve put the game on ice for a while since the Iphone app is done.
But don’t worry you´ll soon be able to try it out

I love it when our plan comes together

It starts to look like something now !
Mostly I’ve been working on fixing all the details and some bugs
that I’ve encountered. Also the Mushroom Kingdoms buildings.

I can almost count down the things that are left to do:
Bowsers army
-Ghost house, for all the powers
-Change the icons
-Bowser, the boss unit.
-Fix all the tooltips

Mushroom Kingdom
-Toadsworth, Mario, Peach, Luigi
-Yoshis, Piatas
-Mushrooms tactical house

This will take some time, and remember that I’m going to need
help with the balance and unit costs
But I´ll come with more info later once you can try out the beta.

Well now I’m off for my work so I can afford the coffee and food that
I constantly consuming.

Hemsedal, Norway

Spent a really good weekend skiing in Hemsedal, Norway.
We had nice weather and the skiing was really good even though the
season hasn’t really started yet although it was good because there
were no ques for the lifts. Overall it was a great weekend !

WMD

I’m working on a new power for Bowser’s army – Airstrike.
This is going to be the most epic power and will take time and money
to use but it´s going to be worth it.
The ship will be commanded by one of the koopa kids and will fly towards it´s
destination and destroy all it´s targets within range.
Can take out a whole base at once.

The ship’s sprite isn’t ready yet but you can see that it looks similar
to the ones in Super Mario galaxy.

Weekend

ortmon — Sun, 28 Nov 2010 19:22:57 +0000

It was a few days since I worked on the game, I’ve been working since I
got back from Rome and yesterday we celebrated a good friend.
I’ve come up with a few ideas for the game but I will work on them tomorrow
tonight it’s time for Left 4 dead
I´ll post new updates as soon as they´re ready !

Pictures are from the Iphone, kinda sucky pics.

A trip to Rome

ortmon — Wed, 24 Nov 2010 20:07:26 +0000

I haven’t worked anything on the game because I took a little vacation
with my girl to Rome. A beautiful city with lots to see, especially if you´reinterested in history and that era.

The camera I used is a Canon 500D.

A little update

ortmon — Mon, 15 Nov 2010 14:34:58 +0000

I had some time during this weekend to work on Super Mario RTS.
I hope that you like what you see and tell me what you think.

Wario & Kamek are two new heroes, Check them at out unit description.

Summon Lakitu, these will work as air support.
They are placed anywhere on the map and will guard their area and
if Mario or his allies will enter that area lakitu will throw down spinies
that will instantly kill their target.

Retreat is a new ability, it makes all the selected units run home
to regroup, very useful if facing a superior force or your army is
low on health.

Also a new ability is to summon six Rocky wrenches.
They are mostly used to repair your buildings but can be used to
be summoned to throw their wrenches at the enemy.

Gaming Night

ortmon — Fri, 12 Nov 2010 11:45:40 +0000

Had a gaming night yesterday and New super mario bros was the game that we
had to complete, Insanely fun game but hard as hell when you play 4-player coop.
Well our cooperation didn’t work that well since we all focused on throwing off each other
of the ledges and grabbing all the powers ups so the others got nothing.
After 6 hours we finally got to Bowser but after we have been burned by his
fireballs like 2000 times we gave up.
GG :’(

Tried out my new iphone 4 camera during the night.
