      Latest blog re: gameplay & coding

      Thanks for the latest blog article. Well I'm sure you'll recognize Peter Molyneaux's statement along the paraphrased lines of: "To make a great game/play you got to play-test-play-test ad nauseum! It's reeeally boring!" :D

      Populous: Best thing about populous was the therapeutic land moulding - and watching the whole thing unfold and react and reform. And greedy gloating, watching your enemy's "hard work" become despoiled, lending a helping hand..

      Topia: Impressive target to give each of the animals individuality... sounds like a tricky goal.

      Still working on AI. Development was paused slightly by the fact that I made it over to the states for GDC which was cool, actually got to meet Josh finally.

      Topia also works at full Retina res on iPad3. The 3D worked instantly but took a couple of hours to remove the blur in the UI. With 'high spec' shaders it just about manages to stay at 30 FPS.

      More pics and videos soon, I have carnivores hunting down peaceful blue sheep creatures in a very horrible way right now.

      I honestly don't care too much about gameplay here - I'm more interested in the sandbox and freedom to sculpt worlds :D

      two iPad retina shots - one of which is slightly older, but you can see its pretty cool with the new shaders.

      It's been a long time since I've seen anything from this game. Glad to see it's still alive (and looking great, btw)!
