**UPDATE 1-20-2015** We're doing an iPhone and Android beta for a rather large Outwitters update: - iPhone 6/6+ support - Cross-platform play - Support for blitz play (be able to stay in-game and bounce turns back and forth in real time) - higher frame rates - a bunch of other minor improvements Interested? Sign up for your respective platform to get beta access! It's certainly been a minute since our last game's release (Tilt to Live), but we're getting closer to finishing up our new game, Outwitters! It'll be out on the app store July 5th! What is Outwitters? It's a whimsical turn-based strategy game that's played asynchronously between two players or with four players (in teams of 2). You'll be using your Game Center account to find matches, invite friends, and boast about your victories and downplay your losses. We'll also have a pass-n-play mode for those that wish to play locally on one device. Meet the Teams! We have 3 teams and 9 maps planned for initial release. Each team has a unique look and feel, map theme, and a special unit with a power that is available only to that team. Climb the Ranks! Outwitters will also sport a fun and challenging leagues and ladders system for players to compete in. Within each tier you fight for ranking among 100 other similarly skilled players in your division. The better you do, the higher your rank. If you start devouring too many noobs you'll eventually get promoted to a higher tier league to face more worthy opponents: Don't feel like playing with strangers? You can take on the world with a buddy in the 2vs2 leagues or simply create a custom game with your own settings and invite players to it. Pics Or It Didn't Happen and a shot from a recent 2 versus 2 game in our beta on a work-in-progress map: Sorry, no video footage at the moment. We'll probably have some after GDC and update this thread.
Hey One Man Left, I applied for the beta (from the Contact Form) and it isn't sending the form. It just keeps loading and loading. Btw, there is a thread for Outwitters already: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=93939&
Oh thanks for the heads up. Hmm, I seem to be getting requests from several people from our form. I've gotten about 4 from the same person in the past minute first name jordan, I'm assuming that may be you? haha
Lol, yes, that is me. It doesn't say whether or not you have sent the form or not though. The loading symbol just keeps rotating and rotating...
It's ongoing, we let waves of users in as we roll out newer builds. We'll probably be sending out beta invites this weekend for another batch.
I've been waiting for this every since OML announced it. It sounds like it'll be a great asynchronous game to play on and off on my free time. The 2v2 option is just icing on the cake, since being able to team up with friends is always fun.
whens the release date!! this looks awesome! i just sent you guys a message about beta testing if you are still looking!
We don't have a concrete date as of yet, other than when it's doneĀ. Our current rough estimate is we are a couple months away from release.
It would be better if this included a single played campaign or aspect. Multiplayer is good but not for everyone and multiplayer only might diminish the popularity. I for one prefer single player content.
Have you ever played WWF before? I do agree that a single player would be awesome but I don't think it should be in the game. There wouldn't be much variety/fun in the levels if there was a single player mode. Imagine WWF with a single player campaign. You can't, because it doesn't make sense.
