Solar Cycle Demo Soon
by Anthony Abrams · 05/23/2007 (1:20 pm) · 5 comments
We are doing some final play testing and fixing any bugs found right now.
I am hoping to have the demo out by the end of the week at the latest.
Here are some in-game screen shots.


Let us know what you think.
Be sure to check out the demo.
It will be a smaller 10 level version of the game with varying difficulty and only basic mode being open.

Considering the idea for the game is less then a week old I think we're doing a good job.
Helps that all we do is work on game stuff all day.
This is actually a different take on the match-3 style puzzle games. Where as most matching style games you have to move pieces around - in this game all you do is 'cycle' the pieces.
It requires you to plan almost every move (I have gotten away with a little random clicking every now and then). One wrong move and you will not be able to complete the level.

In any case, a new element on the match-3 style genre could prove popular (especially if the casual market research is believed) provided you execute it well enough! Good wishes with the project :0)

Sounds a little like Zoo Keeper on Nintendo DS - but that's one fun game so keep up the good work!

I think that we might have the demo ready tomorrow.
Right now I am finishing up the User system and fixing a few bugs.
