Twisted Hive is in!
Once again we (@Therrato and @rihards-twisted) will participate in the Ludum Dare.
About us:
To start of it might be good to start of where we met: we in college. We didn’t really start working on projects together until we got to the second year of our degree. Since the first project we did together we started working together more frequently. It really started when we participated in the global game jam at the HKU in Hilversum. Here we created BugBox, a 5 player multiplayer game that about 4 bugs trapped in a box of an annoying kid (player 5). Here we found that we shared the same mindset when it comes to the development of games. (if we don’t we can discuss the said topic and accept each other’s criticism). After the game jam, Rihards continued the development of the characters of BugBox. This then became the bases of which we decided to start our own company.
When we started our company we quickly figured out that creating the full version of BugBox would be too expensive and we decided to make a different game first that we could complete in a reasonable timeframe “cough”. This game is now known as Sabotage High and is currently still heavily in development. But we are making a great deal of progress.
This jam
Not sure…, but probably we will go for a mobile game this time with some online features (for which the hosting will be taken care of by thewiseminds). Furthermore, we hope to run some tests to obtain some statistics as research for a potential future title and for your knowledge. And this time we will live stream the development on Twitch
