Hi guys, My name is Dwayne Ferguson and I'm pleased to introduce to you the new RTS me and Javier Davalos, the creator of Quantum Collapse, are working on. It's called Hamster Vice: Roach Wars and it's based on my comic book series and toy line. Some of you might remember the ol' Snailiens toys, well, those were from the Hamster Vice universe and you can see pics of those on my site (posted below). Hamster Vice is a comic book series about animal cops taking on the world of insect criminals, you know the suspicious roach standing on every corner. The spider who mixes up the occasional chemical in his trailer lab. The insects have declared war on the authorities and there is something much more insidious behind why they they're causing so much mayhem. Something dark and...mysterious...in the darkest corner of an ancient crypt... We also have some amazing voice work in the game provided by the lovely and talented original Aunt Viv from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Janet Hubert is a great friend and I'm happy she's doing the voice of Vice Tactical Officer Isis Sandstorm. Well, the game interface is likely to change as we develop the game aaaand we're gonna have some contests to give away autographed copies of the Hamster Vice graphic novel. I say wooooo! Please check the blog and see how the game is coming along as we work on it. Your comments are valuable to us so be sure to write and let us know what you think. See ya both on these forums and on my site soon! Take care and happy gaming (man, that was mad corney) Dwayne "Hunter" Ferguson www.diehardstudio.com
Howdy Hi, So far we're knee deep in development. I'm working on units and the interface and Javier is programming around the clock. As far as price, I'm thinking about it. I want to make sure it's attractive to people but at the same time not diminishing the work we're putting into providing a quality experience It won't be pricey
I looked at the rest of the vehicles and they look pretty cool. Even though the story sounded kinda weird. But very creative.
WOW! This is seriously the most eciting thing I ever heard. Dwayne I loved Hamster Vice when it was out and just recently heard about the TPB. I can't believe there is going to be a game. Rest assured I will tell everyone I know about this. Thanks.
Looks like it has pretty good graphics... I'll just wait and see how the gameplay is and how smooth it runs...
I was wondering when Javier would say exactly which rts he was making. I think I now hav to decide between this or C&C I really think it's gunna be first to come out gets my pik. Well I'm also waiting for the release of 1.2 quantum collapse. I'm really thinking that I'm going to buy this game though because I have found that Javier keeps his word. Hope this game doesn't disappoint.
WOW graphics are amazing. Let's hope framerate will be like how good the graphics look. Also I tested Quantum Collapse from Javier! I just wanted to brag and I will be first in line to buy this.
Well I'll be making a more extensive use of the maps voxel engine for this game. For example there's going to be a full day/night cycle so you'll see how the shadows on the terrain change from dawn to dusk and into the night. The map will have more detail than in QC as well. From 512 pixels to 1024 the game will detect if you have a next gen iPhone and if you do you'll get super high res units.
Excellent, the voice of reason. I applaud you all taking the high road and not trying to milk both fragments of the 3GS issue. Btw, I'm liking the direction I see the art work in this game heading.
Vice Command Building Hi guys, I'm painting the main structure for the Vice team called, surprise, Vice Command. lol. I'll post more as I complete it. I may need more coffee....more...cooffffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.... Dwayne
Thanks so much, my friend Hamster Vice was a bit hit when it first came out. I was at the San Diego Comic Con and the lines to get it were astounding. I'm very happy you liked the book. More Vice goodness is on the way! Take care
