Hello lovely peeps! Hope you're well and enjoying the sunshine (if you have any!) Im hoping that this Friday (July 16th) will see the release of the next Quantum Sheep game, .Matrixx (pronounced dot matrix). It's an iPad exclusive game, and sees the player posing as a hacker, piloting an avatar within the enemy mainframe, Lothos, trying to collect blue data spheres while avoiding the enemy red data spheres and picking up powerups! The enemy data spheres are constantly changing direction, and are later joined by Homer and Stalker enemies a challenge for most people! Movement is controlled using just one finger and relative touch! Move in a circle, up+down, left and right, anywhere on the screen, and your avatar does the same The pressure increases as time goes on, and the games very very simple, but fiendishly addictive! The game has: Powerups Unlocks (music, avatars and backgrounds) GameCenter leaderboards Achievements Awesome retro inspired music by Amiga Agia That 'one more go' feeling Here are some screenshots, and I hope youll enjoy playing the game on your iPad! I hope to get a video up in the next day or so for you! Just wanted to say a big 'thanks' to everyone that has played Air Supply - I hope you find this game just as addictive! Any questions, do feel free to ask! Cheers everyone! QS
Hello again! I made a quick vid to show what the game plays like (as you can't really get a feel for it just from words and pics!). Hope you enjoy, and sorry for the moments of out of focusnessness Cheers, QS
I had the pleasure of beta testing this app, and it was extremely addictive! I was busy at the time, and I ended up dedicating way more time to it than originally planned! The music and sound fx remind me of an old PS1 classic, Wipeout Xl which I LOVED, so that brought back the fondest of memories. The gameplay is SUPER addictive! Various powerups are available, and the spheres can change direction at any moment.... you have to play it to see what I mean, this really is a gem of a game! It's an endless type game, but a very different twist on it... defo give it a try!
I've been playing the full version for review purposes and this is a great example of a fairly simple concept being honed pretty close to perfection. A lot of thought (and love) has gone into the controls (relative touch which I always love), game mechanics and the overall feel of the game. Add in some unlockable graphic themes and music, GC achievements and online leaderboards and here's a game you will be coming back to again and again.
Wow - thank you, sir! That's very kind, and I'm so glad you liked it! I'm looking forward to the release - but I'm not sure when that'll be! Probably Saturday by the looks of things! I messed up a bit! Oh silly sheepy! And here's a video done by the awesome Jojopet - another tester - hope you like it! QS
The game's graphics remind me of a mix between Geometry Wars and Rez. I'm definitely gonna keep an eye out for any updates
Cheers for that! Appreciate it! I know this will be a hard sell - it's hard to get people interested in it just based on the screenshots - you really have to see it in action... play it even... to really get what it's about! So here's another video! Also, the game will be $.99 for the launch weekend - it should be out this Saturday - and then it'll go back up to $1.99 I'm hoping that at the reduced price, it'll encourage people to maybe give it a go this weekend! Overall though, I really just hope people enjoy it! Many thanks, QS
I *could* do an iphone version... but honestly, I tried it, and it just doesn't feel the same due to the smaller screen size... I'd rather you saved your money for my *next* iphone game QS
A free game by way of an apology... :O For those looking for .Matrix on iTunes: Firstly: thank you for looking for it! Youre awesome! Secondly: sorry you cant find it Id asked for an expedite from Apple so that the release coincided with the marketing effort ( twitter/facebook/previews/YouTube/press releases etc ). I screwed up and asked for Friday 16th July ( when it should have been Friday 15th July ). Obviously it wasnt approved in time for Friday, and assumed that some clever spark at Apple had changed it to Saturday 16th July. Alas this hasnt happened. I can only apologise for this, and I now have no idea when itll be released Ive manually set the release date to tomorrow (Sunday July 17th) and Ill keep you posted, obviously! Again, apologies to anyone looking forward to this, and thanks so much for your support! Anyway, to try and make up for it, here's the Mac version, totally free: https://files.me.com/qsheep/z0ote3 It's the full game (without GameCenter, oviously) and though it's not quite the same (control is much MUCH better on an iPad), I hope it gives you an idea of what the game's like! Enjoy! QS
