Still alive!

We're sorry for the lack of updates. We've had quite a tough time recently, but things are starting to look good again :).

First of all - we've finished both Episode 4 for XBLIG, as well as final PC version. The bad news is that we don't know where we'll be able to release them, especially since Valve decided Oozi is not a good fit for distribution on Steam.

However, we put a lot of hope in Steam's Greenlight - it's a process where community votes on which games they want to see released on Steam - and this is where we'll need your help. We'll give you more information on that as soon as Greenlight launches. Stay tuned!

Below you can see some new screenshots from Episode 4.

Oozi and Dream Build Play

We keep working on the game. We have recently submitted a build for Dream Build Play. It's a competition held by Microsoft where you can win money by creating a Xbox XNA game. Part of our submission was a new trailer covering the gameplay, if you'd like to watch it I included it at the end of the post. And about the second episode of Oozi's Earth Adventure, we already have four story mode levels implemented, and we should be able to release the game sometime in July. We think that it's much more fun to play than the first one, but you'll have to wait to find out for yourselves.

Oozi at Xbox up and running

We've got some good news for everyone who's waiting for the game. We recently managed to launch Oozi on our Xbox 360 and it plays really cool! There are still some issues to be solved, but we should get them fixed soon.

The other good news about Xbox Live Indie Games release is that we decided to split the game and release four episodes, each at $1 price!

We initially wanted to sell the entire game at $3 or $5 price, but there are reasons why have we changed our mind. The first and the most important is that on Xbox Live Indie Games your sales are good as long as you stay on one of in-dashboard lists: Top Downloads, Top Rated or New Releases. We hope to get a spot on Top Rated list, but there are many other nice games on the service too. For Top Downloads, it only matters how many people have purchased the game on the previous day. Unfortunately, it doesn't matter if your game is $1 or $5, so anything above $1 stands no chance to compete for #1 spot on the list - it's painfully obvious that people buy cheap games more.

Another reason is that we'll be able to release Episode One much sooner than all four worlds are going to ready. We're hoping to have the first episode available on Xbox 360 Marketplace by the end of February. The other episodes will follow as soon as they are ready.

We'll get back to PC version then and release them all in a single pack since it's much more difficult to release a small game on PC than on XBLIG. So don't forget to check our website for updates next month!

Still alive

It's been a while since last update, so it's about time to remind you of us. We're still working on a game - slowly, but making constant progress. Game code has been rewritten on XNA, so we hope to release Oozi on Xbox360 (via Xbox Live Indie Games). That's all for now. To cheer you up a bit I'm publishing few production sketches as well as very first game wallpaper - maybe it will be useful for somebody. See you next time, hopefully sooner and with better news.
