Release: "The Zelda Within"

         At the beginning of April I posted about a Zelda themed game jam which is being held over at GameJolt. I also said that I would be participating in the contest. After a month of development I have created a full out 3D horror/mystery/adventure game called "The Zelda Within". It has been an awesome and productive month! This turned out to be a big project to create in a month and today (May 1st, 2015) is the final day for the gamejam. Luckily, I managed to finish on time and release the game with just a few more hours to spare. Everyone, I give you:

Summery:

Join detective Lulu Pinkhair as you enter the strange twisted trippy dimension hidden in the mysterious motel known as "The Stock Pot Inn".  When Inn guests suddenly start disappearing, it's up to Lulu to uncover whats going on. Adventure through a mysterious non-sense world, encounter familiar characters and re-visit classic scenes in this adventure/horror/mystery thriller game!

"The Zelda Within" will leave you confused, cold, hungry and possibly rage quitting. Can you handle what lies within the "Inn"?

This jam was by far my favorite gamejam I have ever participated in and I had so much fun creating "The Zelda Within". I have made a lot of weird games in the past. But I think this project takes the "wtf is this?" title now.

This game is full of many game references not just from "The Legend Of Zelda" series, but other games as well. If you haven't guessed it from the game title, "The Zelda Within" is heavily inspired by the popular horror game "The Evil Within". This game is full of unexpected surprises....

Can you name all of the game references?

Zelda fans, The Evil Within fans and people who play video games in general, I hope you enjoy

That's all the news I have for now. Thanks for reading. 2015 is turning out to be an awesome year!

Introducing "Snowconesolid Assets"

     Hey everyone I have some exciting news to share today. I recently signed up as a Unity Asset Store publisher. Which means, soon I will be putting up my own custom Unity asset packages for sale over at The Unity Asset Store. This is something I have been planning on doing for a while now but held off until I had a really good understanding of the process and became very skilled and knowledgeable in asset creation for the asset store. I am ready to make my move now and finally moving onto creating awesome asset packages! My goal is to create high quality game ready optimized asset packages for Unity game developers to use in their own projects. Packages for everyone to use to help either speed up the development time of your project, create levels faster, decorate your game or just to help you start out!

I will be creating a variety of different asset packages such as 3d props packages, environment packages for level building, weapon packages, vehicle packages and so on. I will even be open to take request.

Currently, I am already in the process of developing my first couple asset packages and preparing them for the asset store. I will be updating the blog as my packages become available on the store.
I look forward to sharing my creations with other developers and will have more updates soon.

There's a Zelda themed game jam going on!

     Over at GameJolt.com there is an awesome month long Zelda themed game jam going on! As a huge fan of "The Legend Of Zelda" series myself, this is one that I can't pass up! The game jam is not just any ordinary zelda themed jam, but its a female link jam! Its going to be really interesting. I definitely want to participate in this jam and submit something myself when I get the time. I have always been inspired by the legend of zelda series. It's one of the reasons why I am even into creating games. It's definitely one of my favorite game series of all time.

Really excited to start working on my project for this jam and checking out what other people are going to make. I think I might play everyone's entry! :)

I have already created concept art. I'll probably post more updates as I make more progress.

You can check out the rules for the game jam over here http://jams.gamejolt.io/femalelinkjam
Jam ends May 1st. It will be awesome. Good luck everyone and have fun.

PS. I hope the people over at gamejolt don't mind me using their gamejam image in this blog post. :)
