QuestLord Dev Update:Happy 1 year anniversary


Once again I am addressing my blog with an apology for not blogging. :| I have a good excuse though, I have been working furiously to get QuestLord out the door. And things are looking very good, the game is right on the horizon. The light at the end of the tunnel has become so bright I have to wear sunglasses and I can now see the train station!

Until then... Have you heard about this game called QuestLord? You might if you are in the Houston area...

"Yay"

Also note, when I say "we" as in "Right now we have about 120 maps" I am speaking of course of the entire QuestLord team. Amy, my lovely fiance who has put up with this entire ordeal of me making this game.(I couldn't have done it without her) And of course my cat of 16 years, Tiny Toons.

Seeing yourself in an interview is so much different than doing a self made video. If I sound unenthusiastic I have to chalk it up to nerves. Please understand that I am just as enthusiastic as I was when I started this game. :D


Over all this has been a fantastic journey and I wouldn't trade a bit of this experience for a cubicle job. However this is very much subject to change as I wrap this game up and look for my next development journey. But the ups and the downs. The highs and lows. It has all been worth it. I think my game is a good reflection of myself and my skills. I really hope everyone enjoys it. I believe for the price of $1.99 and the amount of game play you get out of it, that it will be worth it for the customer.

I would like to give a HUGE thank you to Bill Stiernberg of ZEYBOD Games for showing up in this interview as well!  Really helps validate the style and retro factor of the game I am working on. He is a total pro and an all around awesome guy. Check out their game Penny Arcade Precipice of Darkness 3 

Ok, back to work. Very busy this week.

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
