Hey Bay 12,
This is Tastyrice from French Rice Games. I figured I would answer all your questions and respond to your comments all in one go.
At this stage I think a beta is a ways off - they'll be extremely lucky to get an alpha that does anything of means by January. The latest videos they have just show very basic pre-scripted animation of one character over obstacles.
Well if you consider mid February late December early January then I believe we are on schedule.
Sounds fun, finding DL link now.
No dl link.
damn.
Luckily for you we just released alpha today... well its 12:12 AM O.o wow.... anyways technically it was yesterday.
What's all that "Top 100" stuff about, if everything that's out is some vids and screens? I don't get it.
Yeah we don't get it either :-/
always wondered why someone didnt take the landscape modification of worms, character management and make it in to a more persistent platform style game.
... actually having landscape modification of worms would be amazing... *scribbles down side note for potential sequel*
It's not out yet silly goose
Alpha just came out banana monkey!
Looks more like a platformer than a management game. I wonder if it is a 'manage all your critters at top-level' or if it's 'give individual orders'. Still, 'inspired by' can mean any damn thing, and it is pretty cool looking.
It does mean a damn thing.
If you guys haven't heard alpha is out! It's fairly primitive so don't go in hoping to get your minds blown away. However this is a platform for releasing new builds and getting feedback and people to play test through things. Hope you guys enjoy the alpha and we can't wait to hear your feedback!
