Hide-n-Seek Winter Released! (Birthday Release!)

     It's finally here everyone! After over three months of work I finally finished my newest game project, "Hide-n-Seek Winter". A unique toon/cel-shaded adventure,action,puzzle game that takes place in a world that never stops snowing. Today is a special release day because it is also my 21st birthday (woooooo!).

I started this project almost immediately after I released "Forest Soup" (my short Halloween game release of 2013) and since then I have been posting updates about it. I had originally planned on finishing and releasing this game before the end of 2013 but then I started to make many changes to the game as I developed it and that led it to take even longer to make. If you have seen my very early updates of this game you can see the difference. I have scrapped levels, re-textured all of my game models and just changed a lot of things. It was frustrating at times but for the most part it was a smooth development process. Out of all my games so far, I have to say that this one was my biggest and most serious one yet. It was definitely a challenge to create this one especially since I created all the assets from scratch, but its finally complete. I am very proud of this specific game project. I believe that this is a major step up compared to my other games and is my most polished game yet. Gameplay mechanics, graphics and overall gamedesign have all improved with this game project. It took a lot of hard work and time to create this but it was well worth it and I feel like I have become a better game developer for it. This is my first game release of 2014 and I can't wait to start working on my next game projects! Ok that's enough bragging for now. Lets just get to the game! :)

To get you a bit more interested in this game if your not already here is the newest trailer I created for it. Enjoy! Download links to game down below.

Hide-n-Seek Winter Release Trailer:

Story: 
(for those of you who want to know what this game is even about)
     After playing a game of hide and seek, little sister Frosty compliments her big brother Choco by telling him that he is the greatest hide and seek player ever. After saying this, the "Hiding Demon" suddenly appears and refuses to believe that choco is the greatest hide and seek player ever. The hiding demon then kidnaps Choco's little sister and disappears. The hiding demon tells Choco to meet him at the frozen pond in the "Infinite Snow World", a strange alternate dimension world where it snows forever. In order for Choco to rescue his little sister, he must defeat the hiding demon in a game of hide and seek.

     The game is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux platforms. (It may become available for other platforms such as webplayer and android devices if I decide to port it sometime. I will most likely release a webplayer later on for sure though. As for android, I am interested in porting to that device. If I see enough people are interested in it then I will probably also port it to android to)

Game Summery:
"Forest Soup" is a horror game about a boy named Oliver OliveTree and his magical flying pet creature named Fogo. Oliver and Fogo become hungry as the day nears its end. The two characters decide to make forest soup for dinner, a legendary soup that has a taste that is out of this world. The two eventually realize that they do not have the ingredients to make this soup. Fogo tells Oliver that all the ingredients can be found at a place called "Black Cloud Island". Fogo takes Oliver to the entrance of the island where the game begins. Take the role of Oliver OliveTree and skydive down below to this mysterious place called "Black Cloud Island" in search of the ingredients for the so called Forest Soup.

Released: Revolver Finger - Android Game

Hey everyone! Big day today.

My first android game project "Revolver Finger" is out now and can be downloaded from the Google Play store for free!



If you are just now reading in then let me explain. "Revolver Finger" is my android game project that I have been working on for a bit over a month. It is a short action/adventure game about a raccoon who one day receives a mysterious package. The game starts off with no explanation and you come across weird characters. If you play it you will see what I am talking about. But it does have a story-line which is explained. I believe out of all my games so far, this one has the best story-line.

So anyway, if you have an android device check out Revolver Finger. Apple users I am sorry, at the moment I cannot build to ios but maybe sometime in the future I will.

I had a lot of fun working on this project and learned a lot of new things to. The game itself is not perfect but overall everything works great. If you experience any problems/ bugs please let me know. Also let me know if you enjoyed/ hated the game. Leave a comment here or send me a tweet on twitter here

Anyway, thats about it for now. I definitely have a lot more plans for more android game projects and other projects in the future and look forward to creating them.

Once again, check out my game if you have the time and thanks for looking.

See ya for now.

Edit: Upside Down camera issue. Hey everyone, just a small little problem I have been dealing with and thought I solved a when I was developing this game. Sometimes, for some reason you will appear upside down in the game. I am not sure why this happens but it is very easy to fix. If this does happen to you just exit the game, I mean fully close it and just restart. Its something that happens rarely. But has no impact on the game at all. So just be sure to completely close the application and reopen it if you ever find your character is upside down. I believe this is caused when you continuously tap the screen when the game is loading the next level.
