Has it really been 2 1/2 months since my blog post?

It appears I have a syndrome of convincing myself that my game is always two weeks out.  lol. SORRY!    I kept thinking it was last week.  Actually things are moving along swimmingly.

I am happy to report that I have been working diligently on my game...except for the last two weeks.  I got in kind of a bind financially and had to join an art contract company called The Creative Group to make ends meet.  Well, that actually hasn't produced much work, which was fine by me.

I was happy as a pickle to be working on my game full time and my game has actually benefited greatly from it!

So....  They call me up out of the blue and give me a job.  And well, I had to take it.  For a few weeks.  It has actually been 2 weeks and 2 days.  And it has thrown my work off track like CRAZY!  The gig is contract, so it sucks that it is right in the middle of content creation, but the gig is almsost over (it will be done by next week then back to my game full time).  Isn't all game making content creation?

well, not the way I am doing it.  I programmed most of the game upfront, meaning when it came time to program it so more monsters and npcs could be used, I just tinted the monster to make another monster.  This was so that I could keep laying groundwork with the programming and not stop and get distracted by going back and forth with art and code.

So now I am at a point of just content creation.  The game is basically programmed just needs content (ie. art and level design)

But it is the weekend, and I am doing nothing but making art (content) for my game.  I hope to release it in the beginning of April.  That means I will submit it to (I almost typed Nintendo out of force of habbit) Apple.

ok.  back to work...

    Cool, man. I bet the monster you make during Immigration Song is a badass!

On secrets and scandals!

Typical Warning:***possible QuestLord 1 Spoilers, enjoy them! *** So back when the game came out, I think on a TouchArcade forum I was going on about the secret of the Rabbit. What happened to that?! I don't talk much about the rabbit.  Well basically I put it in and then had another update to do. When that update was done, I realized that I had left out the rabbit and had worked on an early pre-rabbit-developed code base. :( It was really broken secret code, so i did have versions planned for that one.  After you get the carrot from the Palace (a place that sadly no longer exists) you do like in most QuestLord secrets and you drop the item someplace in Kyre in front of trees and the trees in front of you animate so a bunny comes out.  :D  If you have the amulet of Tanjee you can talk to the animal and get healed. I hope I didn't make anyone feel baited, my reaction would be "pfft...gufaw... not at all!" In fact in the tileset on everyone's game t

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

First let me start by wishing all of you the best holiday with your friends, family or by yourself. QuestLord news: I missed Christmas release, and therefore I missed 2012 release. Too bad. But I don't care about the Christmas sales. If I cared anything about money I would be working in some studio making average run of the mil apps... Or any other game industry job where I would be making 50,000x the money and doing 1/10th the amount of work! (which on many late night weekends, believe me sounds really nice) And I definitely don't care about complaints that I am taking too long. Holy hangrenades, It's only been 5 months since I announced the game... Since when did the game industry turn into popcorn turn-around. Especially since it's going to be cheaper than a cup of coffee. Relax. Wait. For all the game reviewers out there who might be disapointed that they ran with a story for a game that missed the date a few times... uh.. don't know what to say abou

It has come to my attention that most of the viewers of my game are male.  I completely expected this.  From looking at the YouTube video it breaks down as such... Top demographics Male, 35-44 years Male, 25-34 years Male, 45-54 years Now unlike many of my other games I created for the Nintendo market, QuestLord doesn't really allow the player to specify if they want to be male or female.  In fact it completely skips that.  However there is nothing to say that your character you create IS female or male.  That is completely up to the player.    The only thing you see of your player are your arms, and unless you expect a female character to have pink painted finger nails, it is purely up to the player's imagination.  I rather like this idea as it allows for more of the blanks to be filled in by the player for what they want out of my fantasy game.   As for the story, I have always admired fantasy genres that have strong female characters and even females that really do not
