    Hey guys!

    After many years of work, we are ready to announce our game CastleAbra !

    [​IMG]

    It is an old fashioned point and click adventure game coming to iPhones and iPads this summer.

    Our trailer.

    Wizardo, Spurned by the Princess Myrna Loo, has locked her up in his magic castle.
    You must infiltrate CastleAbra, gain Wizardo's trust and work behind his back to prevent this unholy union!
    Are you a bad enough dude to rescue your beloved Princess?

    CastleAbra is a throwback to the classic adventure games of yesteryear.

    Use your wits to solve puzzles and defeat monsters.

    Unlock doors and explore a massive castle.

    Meet new characters and immerse yourself in an epic love story!

    Here's a typical jerk who will try to stop you.

    Here's poor love-struck Wizardo, who just can't take no for an answer.

    Lastly, here's a depressed Raven.

    Also, if you're interested, I made a colorful, comic journal of our games development. I call it a PreMortem.

    Thanks for taking a look. As soon as the game is up, we will start a new thread and give away all our promo codes.

    We're saying "Summer" to be cautious. We just have to finish up a few things, but we may be able to submit to Apple in June.

    The comic is AWESOME, the game looks GREAT (that trailer looks and sounds BEAUTIFUL), and would I be mistaken if I said you guys might be partially inspired by Neil Gaiman (third screenshot)? ;)

    Looking forward to checking this puppy out! Keep us posted! :D

    Thank you so much!

    I absolutely love Neil Gaiman. I wore a Death watch in High School. But the girl on the wall is not Death from Sandman. She's supposed to be Siouxsie Sioux. Although, I'm sure they modeled Death after her.

    I don't. Kinda wish I did. We're not very savvy when it comes to these social networks.

    We might add mailing list though.

    iPad verson submitted!

    WooHoo!

    CastleAbra is all done and we are waiting for approval from Apple!

    This is super exciting for us!

    We'll probably be giving out codes here. I gotta see how that's done on the TA forums.

    The premortem comic is brilliant. Very touching, sincere and funny. Everyone needs to buy this game to save these guys from Mexico!
