    For quality i agree with you, but for content I'd like it more if he made it come out sooner and make the more content come out in updates. But with apple's approval process that may not be such a good idea... I mean, look at how long Pocket God's updates are taking. (The new one's out)

    i aslo agree that using two joysticks, one for moving and one for shooting is the best way.....

    just look at idracula/minigore and how easy it is to maneuver and shoot at the same time.

    it would be a shame for such an amazing looking game to suffer from poor control qualities..

    also, def try to the +plus system working for the game... that way you can add more levels, and charge a small fee for them... or even more weapons.. ect..

    Also, a multi player system over bluetooth/wifi might be a cool. You could do team work or a battle against each other.

    Did I miss something or did was he always that color. Either I am not diggin it too much and the enemies look out of place. I prefer the look of the original.

  10. He "WALKS" really fast, why didnt you make him run instead? *joke aside*

    His walking animation seems like someone in a hurry but they are unable to run.

    I rather enjoy the colorful new look. Personally I felt the game looked a bit monotone previously, things appeared to fade into each-other somewhat. As mentioned by someone the creatures may feel a bit out of place now, although I think that has more to do with the type of shading used. The background still appear very detailed, while the creature has a very gradient type shading. Perhaps adding some more detail to them, while still keeping the color would remedy that. Game is looking great in any case. So keep up the great work. Looking forward to playing.

    how about this ?

    [​IMG]

    This new art direction is all from your feedbacks (more colors and saturation), less realistic more painting.

    I still have to struggle with graphics and performance. I'm using no mipmaps, no texture filtering, no lighting, texture atlases, material batching and lots of other stuff. So we can still be at a solid 60 fps (and loading rooms in less than 2 seconds). The optimizations and sacrifices are too much for the artists that have offered to help, and the hardcore guys I know in the industry are quite $et already. Maybe sales will help me hire some peeps and get you a nice update ;)

    The cinematics engine is done. I can now move on to campaign and story development.

    I'm kind of excited on how everything is coming along. This community driven game development is lots of fun. It might be interesting to have an open online system that could help further integrate the community into all aspects of development. Developing story this way may be interesting.

    Anyway, keep the feedbacks coming. Cheers and thanx for the support !!!

    You should Add in a option to switch between styles. Oh, and add a thing where you have a hue and color slider, so we can change the chars color :D

    You should have kept the monsters the same, but oh well. Also do you have a price set yet?
