After a month of work, I was able to get Obliteration HD finished a few hours before the deadline. In Obliteration HD, you’re job is to destroy everything in your path. Using a state of the art airplane, and a bunch of bombs, you must obliterate EVERYTHING! Fly around North America and just blow stuff up.

If you visit my website (http://howihatethenight.com/games/obliteration/), you can see full resolution screenshots and get a little more information.

That's...interesting, though some people might be offended by bomb dropping over cities. And the game won't lag like in the video, will it? Other than that, looks promising enough.

it's ok, you're clearing out zombies, or something like that :)

the game won't lag like that either. That's iMovie / YouTube's problem when downconverting / compressing a 1024x768 video.

I'd like to bring it to the iPhone / iTouch as well. We'll see how the iPad version does.

Hi everyone,

just a little more information:

-Price: $1.99
-It should *hopefully* be available on launch day. I've met all the deadlines set by Apple so far, but I know better than to rely on that :\
-It's got 35 levels right now, 35 more coming shortly after launch in a 'european expansion pack' (for free)
-It's got the same Poor Man's Leaderboard as my other games (i.e. submit screenshots)

I'll post some more screenshots tonight of the different backgrounds and locations you can visit.

Easy :) my iPhone games are $.99, and this one took 2x longer to draw. So, $1.99.

Any plans to integrate openfeint in this game ? No quality leaderboards is unfortunately a deal breaker for me.

It looks fun :)

thanks. I'd like to implement OF, but it's out of my control right now, the engine doesn't support it.

If there are no leaderboards, the 3 star system like angry birds works well for motivation to keep playing.....................just a thought :)

No random cityscape generation, I'm assuming?

not right now. I am working on one, but it would have delayed the game.

Well, it's official I think. Obliteration HD should be in the App Store on the iPad Release Day! Everything has been approved and now we just have to wait until Saturday.

I've tweaked the gameplay a bit, you're on a Zombie Killing mission, clearing away zombie hotspots so civilization can rebuild (hence the blood on the buildings).

I've got some new screenshots below, you can visit the game's website (http://howihatethenight.com/games/obliteration/) to read a little more about the game, and see full resolution screenshots.

Thanks! It may not look like it, but it took just as long to draw as it did to program.
