Uhhh... ummm... errr... O_O Y U MAIK US WAIT OVER A MONTH? No, seriously... wow. Incredible. I can't wait for this to come out.
This. Is. Impressive. Wow! It looks like a perfect mesh of challenge and sweet graphics polish, and exactly the sort of game I've been waiting for on iOS for a long time. Really looking forward to May, and getting my hands on this!
Hi Guys! We are glad to see that you seem to like Project Belle! A lot of hard work, late nights and weekends have been put in to this game and we are really trying to push the limits for platform gaming on iOS here. We have gone with swipe based controls; so you swipe right to start running to the right, up to jump, down to slide etc. We then have to ways of attacking the enemies; first Belle auto-fires at everything she sees, to that we have added a strong "blast" that is triggered by tapping on your target. We also have a bomb that blows up everything on screen but that is another story This has been working really well and we are excited to hear what you guys will think about it. @shyguy3 Yes! This is kind of a hard core game with an intuitive control scheme. So the game will be really easy to pick up but the level of difficulty will go up and really challenge you at the later levels I will come back with some more info (and hopefully some concept art!) in the coming days.
New Thread! Now that Project Belle has changed its title to Project 83113, we have created a new thread for the game Please check out our newest post @ http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?p=2279390#post2279390 Thank you! NCsoft
Love the look of the game BUT swipe based controls ? Big no no for me. Look at successful platform games on iOS, theyre not swipe based controls. Look at Lost Winds, didnt work well when it was swipe based, proved much popular/better reviews when d-pad controls were added. At least if you can add an alternative control system such as the d-pad. Think its a major mistake if you keep it to swipe based personally (Judging on the 40 or so platformers i have on iOS)
Where should i post ? I post here because i like Project Belle way more than... what was the new name again ? Despite the stup.d new games' name, this is an instabuy for me since day one ! Hope the controls work well, but a little voice inside me already confirms that they will. (seeing the video) Good luck Devs...but consider the name again.
