Developer Note:
After over a month of not being active on my blog I am back and with a new game release. Releasing this game is kind of a surprise to myself personally as I had other plans for it. This game might look a bit familiar to some of you who have been reading my blog.
Back in May I announced a new game project I was working on. Originally it was called "Escape Ocean Zero". I was constantly posting screenshots on my twitter and talking about it. I originally had different plans for the game and wanted it to be more of a mystery/adventure type game. As time went on I had become busy with other things and eventually ceased developing the game. I had left my blog without any updates for over a month and even left the game development scene for a while.
After a good break from developing games I am ready to once again jump back in and start creating my new ideas. I want to start focusing on my new ideas now but at the same time I didn't want all the work I put into "Escape Ocean Zero" to go to waste. So I decided to take a different direction with the project and soon it became this game, the one you see right now, "Beach Ball Shooter". Instead of creating this big game with a complex story I wanted to keep it short, simple, avoid creating a storyline and keep the gameplay constant throughout.
So for "Beach Ball Shooter", I created a number of really small and somewhat easy levels all that focus on the same simple goal, collect the rubber duck to complete the level. That's it. That is the whole game. As simple as this game is, I actually really enjoyed creating it. Creating such a simple game felt right. It has even changed me a little bit as a game developer and made me realize that games don't always need to be this crazy complex creation with big levels and storylines and cutscenes. They can be fun in their simplest form. I am starting to understand that less really can be more in some cases. So who knows, I might just take a similar approach with my future game projects from now on as well.
About Version 1.0:
Beach Ball Shooter Version 1.0 features 13 easy mini levels. I am releasing this as version 1.0 because I might just release updated versions of the game later on in the future with more levels. I created a ton of game props and assets for this project that I can easily reuse and I can easily create a lot more simple levels out of all the props/game assets I have already set up in the unity engine.
