All main levels now complete. I should mention, to be fair to the others on that leaderboard, that at the moment I am the only one with a build that goes all the way to 100 };-). I'll release this build on Friday to the rest of the alpha team and then we should see some more score table action }:-).

Quite pleased with the final 36 levels - for sure a stiff challenge at times but as always with a few gimmes and holidays along the way to allow for regrouping. The last 4 levels in particular are lovely, sumptuous, epic scorefeasts, a fitting reward for having made it that far, and level 100 is a ding dong battle that you think will never let up, and which will take a few lives off all but the very best players }:-). I'll be continuing to play over and tweak the levels until everything is completely finished, but all the main levels are now pretty much done }:-).

I'll spend the next couple of days polishing up bits and pieces for the next alpha release on Friday, and then next week will be dedicated to the bonus round. If I can get that nailed in a week then I'll be a happy ox and on schedule for gameplay complete end of March as I hoped }:-).

Great news their :)

The high score tables are looking great there as well, nice and clear, but unique.

Out of interest, not that I am likely to see it, but what will happen when you complete level 100?

Is it game over and the highest score wins?

Will it loop around and let you whore for points? (getting much tougher I would imagine?)


looking forward to this now

apologies for the appalling use of 'their' instead of 'there' in the first line, but I was getting excited

I am happy to see ludicrously high scores are possible in this game :)
Do you think we might be looking at a summer release to the public then?

The more I see, the more I want.

It makes me so happy to see something coming to Live Arcade that isn't just a port of something really old and not very good but now with shit controls thanks to the 360 pad having an awful d-pad.

More than that, I've been gagging for a new game from you guys on a console for a long time now. I was actually upset when the Cube game never materialised!

Speaking of which, do you have any decent videos of that you can share? The various YouTube offerings leave a bit to be desired.

No no, videos of Unity, the cancelled Gamecube game. ;)

I used to host a few bits, but took them down ages ago, as some sites were taking liberties with them and also making stupid un-informed comments on the game based purely on the vids and a few screenshots.

This desktop wallpaper I made used a very early level test:

If Yak agrees I can upload the vids again, but I can't see the point really.

Just in time, too. Space Giraffe and 360 Elite in the same season. Excellent. :)

From what you showed at GDC I couldn't be more excited.
