Gem Thief - My First Indie Title
by Benjamin Wallis · in General Game Discussion · 09/21/2011 (1:41 am) · 0 replies
I hope you all don't mind if I talk about a cocos2d title that I have been working on and that I'm about to submit to Apple on these forums, I do so because I want to hear your feedback and I feel like this is one of the many great places to get it.
So I'll leave a few links on this post to out website, facebook page, twitter page, as well as an interview I did with Game Pron at AVCON in Adelaide, which was a convention where we showed our game off to the public as well as fellow indie developers which was a really rewarding experience.
I'll leave you to look at the pages if your interested to learn more about Gem Thief, but just to give you a quick overview, the game is essentially a modern twist on Boulderdash (If anyone can remember that far back in gaming history). Basically you play as a gem thief (spoiler), who navigates 2d levels grabbing gems, exploding tnt and avoiding hazards.
I want to keep this post short so I'll leave it at that, but if you'd like to learn more or give some feedback feel free to post =].
