Kablooey! Carrots, Contest Results & More

Sometimes I need something to drive me to finish my games…you know, when wealth, power, fame, money, and fortune aren’t quite rousing’ me to push forward.

Kablooey! Teaser Trailer!

It’s time for the big push for Kablooey to be finished, so I thought I’d have a little teaser trailer before the main trailer. Enjoy!




The game will be released in October; 2BeeGames has extended their deadline from Sept. 15th to October 15th, and I want to take advantage of the extra time with a longer beta period. The public beta will go live late next week, so be sure to register on the forums if you want to take part in it. Woo!

(NEW) Quick ShellBlast HD Status Update

NEW UPDATE (9/1): Success! Everything is good now and the art is back on. Look for the week of ShellBlast to continue tomorrow!

NEW UPDATE (8/31): We’ve just resubmitted to MS, so hopefully we’ll be back up early this week!

UPDATE (8/28): Looks like there was indeed a bug that glitched our game from displaying our artwork…quite a rare one, actually. We will have to resubmit to Microsoft in a few days but the good news is that they’re accommodating us so that we’re back on the Marketplace quickly. Again, the game itself is not affected and will be the same exact game once it’s resubmitted; this is only a glitch with the display. So, until the game is back up in it’s proper format, I’m holding off on the rest of the week of ShellBlast. Thanks for understanding. 🙂

UPDATE (11:19PM): We just made contact with Microsoft and there is indeed a few glitches in the system. The game is perfectly fine and ready to buy, but all our boxart/artwork is currently missing. They are working on it now, and I’ll continue the blog shindig tomorrow evening. Thanks everyone!
