Snowduckie @ Cuteness Comes in a Kettle!

Oh we truly did! I wish the story would've fit in the article though, but I'm not very good at doing proper text formatting in the IndieDB article posting thing, and I feared the video just be hidden at the bottom of the page...

And believe me, I'm going to be in trouble if no one reads the story... ._.

Snowduckie @ Results for the Grand Mini-boss Voting Competition!

Yeah, when he said that I realized that "gah- he's right, the others won't stand a chance" @_@

Oh well, we already had some time to plan the fight a bit. It's going to be a steamy fight! And adorable, oh so adorable.

Snowduckie @ Corona

Ah yes, we're currently making a new version, titled Corona: Shadows of Vaniria, that has a completely new campaign. The articles and updates here on our IndieDB page center this new version almost exclusively. Sadly, it's not quuuite ready to be released yet (even as a demo), but we do try to hand out information as fast as we can!

The version that can currently be downloaded here is an old development build that has some updated material that never made it to the Windows Phone 7 Marketplace, but that we sadly cannot build on any further. The codebase was simply too messy, so we had to create a completely new foundation to build on.

Snowduckie @ Shadows of Vaniria Ammo Pattern Screenshot

I went a bit light on the projectiles since it's one of the early levels ^_^

Snowduckie @ Corona

It's no coincidence either, I fear xD

Corona does have its roots in Touhou kinda. I saw some people play Touhou for like five minutes, and I was wondering what it would be to program something like that... Guess it kinda got out of hand from there on out.

Sadly didn't play the games very much myself. I played a bit after Corona had already been released, but I'm not exactly very good at them... Awesome games though *_*

Snowduckie @ Overloading Vaniria's Emotions

Yeah I've had the same worry, but I guess I'll have to see how it all plays out with the other systems when there's more content going on. Maybe I'll figure out some twist I can add to the whole thing to make it better, hmmmm.

Ah well, at least some of the new weapons will have their own twists to complicate the gameplay though, for those who don't like things too simple >:3

Snowduckie @ Vaniria Gameplay Showcase: Emotions

Ahaha, I suppose the video can be a bit confusing as a stand-alone piece, especially since it's material that's still heavily under development. There will be an article to accompany it soon, though, and hopefully I can finish writing it by tomorrow so we can post it. Should clear things up a bit~

Snowduckie @ Corona

Ah, it will be completely free! The stuff we're currently developing is planned to have no money-grabbing model of any kind, we're doing it just for fun~

Snowduckie @ The Current Course of Corona - Full Speed Ahead!

Yeah I've been thinking about releasing the source code too, but it could be that I need to document it better first *cough*

Some of the content formats are still a bit undefined too, so can't quite be too sure if I can release anything very soon ._.

Snowduckie @ The Current Course of Corona - Full Speed Ahead!

If we wanted to make Corona commercial, we'd pretty much have to start our own company. We're not really planning on that for now, so we kinda thought that we might as well give as many as possible the chance to play the game - so might as well be free! We're using the limited few months we have to update a long-running project that we neglected waaaay too much over the last years, and we like the game so much that we really want to share the enthusiasm we have to everyone else too. :3
