The Gauntlet’s Revenge switch to free to play on Android was a bit of a distraction, but we’re back on track with the Outwitters port. This past week the map backgrounds were all rebuilt to resemble the originals as closely as possible (though I did improve the twitchy egg animation for Reaper & War Garden – you’re welcome). According to Alex, we’re still set to have it all wrapped up by the end of the month. That may mean a February release rather than January like we intended.
As for January being prototype month for Game 5, that ship seems to have sailed. My work stack for the port is a lot smaller than Alex’s, so for me it feels like waiting for Christmas. I’ve got like eight turn-based strategy games prototyped, so I’ve shifted focus to something I’ve always wanted to experiment with: an adventure game with a story. It won’t be game 5, but it’s fun to play around with.
