New Game Release: CrytorYan and Some Poster News

Hey All,

I have made a new Game for QOG Madness 2Hour Compo but I think I can't participate because the game took developement time more than that (6 hours).

These 6 hours are divided like that the game engine and game took around 3 hours and 43 minutes, The music and sounds took around 1 hour which was so waste of time and The rest was for menus and interfaces.

The game as you can see is called CrytorYan which is a professor zack discovered material. The gameplay is so simple as it is a simple shooter with a small twist.

Story:
Proffessor Zack have discovered a new chemical substance.When he was observing of the heat on the material it make some strange behaviour. The Bluy atoms become insane and want to collide with Whity atoms (Bluy and Whity are the two atoms making the material) if the collison happens it unleash an explosion which destroy any other Whity ones which produce another explosion and so on in a chain reaction manner. The Whity shot some germs that transform the Bluy to its type to survive.

Go and try it now the here is the link.

About the Tocco Project posters I have finished the first one and when I was going to start the second the developing team reduce his expenses so they may not be able to print the second poster. But I told my cousin a plan to reduce the expenses and same time get two different posters is to print 2 large posters and some small posters instead of 3 large ones.


So he will think in that so I started in the second poster and I made a small prototype for it I like to share it with you and tell me your opinion about it.

Waiting comments about the new game and the poster.

Bye Bye

Project Poster First Look and Some News

Hi All,

As I said before that I was working on a poster for my cousin graduation project. I don't know If I said that or not but we agreed to make two posters for Tocco Project as It is divided into two parts (I don't know If I said that Before but anyway Tocco project is two parts one is touch surface by fingures and the second is pen that can draw on any projected screen from a Projector)

I have worked for 2 days for now in making it and getting an idea. Yesterday I managed to make the first look on the poster

(Note: the Poster is larger than that image but because its size is so huge so I uploaded a resized version)

Hope u like it. I have lots of other news about competitions and other stuffs.

The IGF has opened the doors now for the submission so if anybody interested to join here is the (link) for students there is no fees on participation so I may join don't know if I had time for that.

Also QOG (a user on GameJolt website) started a 2 hour competition on the forums like the ones that happens on Poppenkast where the theme is MADNESS so you have to develop a game in 2 hour to participate I want to participate but I don't know if I can finish the game in two hours so I will try as I have a very awesome small idea. (for more information about compo here is the link)

Third and the last thing is that Experimental Games was re-opened again where every month a prototype game competition is held. This site is managed by Kyle Gabler (The Creator of World of Goo) also Petri (the Creator of Crayon Physics Deluxe). Do you know that World of Goo was created as a prototype called tower of goo on that website also Caryon Physics was the same too.

That all the news for now :)

Waiting for comments on the first look on the first poster :)

Some small news about new Projects

Hey All,


In the now time, I have two running projects. One is a Game and Second is a Poster for my cousin Graduation Project.

The Game is top secret right now but when I have a small WIP to show you I will upload it :) I am working on the engine and arting at same time and I finished about 10% of the engine and no more than 3% in graphics so it need more time.

But What I can say about the game is that its made for a competition in an Arabic Forum called Montada (This is a translated link) where the theme of the competition is Ninja Warriors.

About the second stuff (which is a poster for my cousin graduation project) his projet is Multi touch surface (like microsoft surface) but in more simpler way.

Beside the surface he is doing a pen which can act on the projector output as the mouse also you can use more than one pen.

So I am working on making the poster for that project (Tocco Project) as he is kidna busy and the project deadline is near around two weeks and there still some bugs and issues that must be solved.

By the way he made a blog for the progress of the project so If you are intersted you can take a look (link)

When anything cool is finished I will upload it on the blog. But both (my) projects are still in begining.

Bye for now
