Update #1: Project Announcement

Hi there everyone. Exophesis here reporting for Team Callex. I promised to give you an update on our project so here it is:

Our project is called “Assault!”. It’s a multiplayer tank based game much like the Tanks minigame from Wii Play. We plan to incorporate multiplayer soon but at the moment the movement and shooting aspects are finished (within the first hour as well :D). Users will be able to host their own servers easily and the game will allow up to 4 players to compete with each other in many different gamemodes and maps. We also plan to have 2 official servers running all the time when we first add multiplayer into the game and we will release both stable and unstable updates of the game as we make our progression. As well as all this, we plan to have a working website up for the project by the end of tomorrow so you can download these game updates and help give us feedback and suggestions.

Anyway, we are finished for tonight (as we live in the UK and it’s 3am here). But join us again tomorrow when we will hopefully have multiplayer working and the base game working as a whole. From there it will just be adding powerups, sounds, multiplayer gamemodes, etc.

Don’t forget to follow @TheBoothy on twitter for project updates and we will still be posting daily updates here on Ludum Dare. Night everyone.

First Screenie

Hi everyone, Exophesis here again from Team Callex.

Just to show you an in-development screenshot of our game so far.

Development Screenshot #1

Update coming up tonight about what we have done within the first 24 hours of Ludum Dare with hopefully more screenshots.

 

Team Callex’s Resignation…

Exophesis here for Team Callex. Sadly, we have had to resign from Ludum Dare #25 due to personal problems; which is sad because this was our first Ludum Dare and we were determined to make it through.

We’ll hopefully have another go on the next Ludum Dare compo. And wish LOADS of luck to all the current participants in this compo. We can honestly say that some of the games you people have come up with look amazing and both me and TheBoothy cannot wait to try some of them out.

Anyway, you can still follow @TheBoothy on twitter if you are interested in further Team Callex announcements.

Thanks everyone!  😉
