Brief break AFTER Retina Boneyard/Keep. Notice how that wasn't a question, but an outright demanding statement from a ravenous TA user (fangs and drool included).
Haha, I meant after Solomon Dark is done. Retina Boneyard might be done this week, and Retina Keep possibly next week. Keep is trickier because of all the tiling.
It works exactly like Boneyard does (you're one wizard, you die, it's over). However, what's different is that the College slowly upgrades-- you unlock new things that make each new wizard better prepared (though ultimately failing, since Solomon has to survive to be in Keep!) One thing that will extend the play value, is that HOPEFULLY (and don't quote me on this in case it turns out impossible) you'll be able to create graveyards with triggers and action events, and upload/share them on a system similar to the system in Robot Wants Kitty.
There must be a God in the heavens. I can't wait to see how this looks. Any chance of a comparison screen shot to tease us even more?
Oh and I wanted to ask you about Robot Wants Kitty... -Is it Retina and if not are you going to make it Retina like Keep/Boneyard? -Can you make the directional arrows so that they can be spread apart from one another? Since they are touching I often go to press right and go left. -Can you install a pause button so it would be possible to also return to the main menu? Right now I have to exit the app to go backwards, LOL.
-It'll go Retina... Boneyard is the test flight, and if all goes well, Keep, Hoggy, and RwK will all get Retina'd. -Hrm... probably not at this point (don't want to invest time into it instead of doing, say, the next game in the series, which Hamumu Games is after me to do anyway). You're supposed to slide your finger on that, as if it were a nintendo pad or something... but you don't have to be too close to the center to trigger it, that might help? You can press them near the edges. - Touch the robot!
I think the screenshot will just be larger, no? I.E. it wouldn't be representative. You know, I can't see retina at all, my eyes are damaged from all these years of staring at computer screens. But my testers tell me it's better.
Alright Rapti I'll leave you be so you can finish this Retinafication process unhindered. I will be staring at my iPhone religiously until I see this update roll in, then I'll be staring at Retina Boneyard for like, 6 weeks straight Keep us posted! Oh, and I totally forgot about tapping on the robot. Duh.
No, I'll be supporting iPad from Solomon Dark onwards. For what it's worth, at this time I plan a complete remake of each game to support all the new equipment. The current hardware was just a leeeeetle bit underpowered for what I wanted to do back then. So I have this itch I need to scratch. Solomon Dark = Solomon's Boneyard done right Deluxe Solomon's Keep = Solomon's Keep done right Hoggy 2 = Hoggy done right Robot Wants Kitty Saga = RwK done right (and folding in the other games in that series)
Well, not next week... but it's motoring along... hope to get it in open beta pretty soon, but well, game development is a nest of vipers with a cold teat that dispenses poison (quote me!).
My mind. It just exploded. Dear god, all of the want in the world. Be still my heart. Raptisoft = Love Seriously though, thank you. Solomon's Keep has been one of my most played and enjoyed games on iOS since its release, and I cannot wait to mash the buy button for every title on the new line.
