I have been out of commission for awhile, working on some new Blurst projects and gearing up for GDC. Now that I am back and a little more in the clear, I can get back to posting.
For any of you who may not have been keeping an eye on some of the mobile sites, a press release went out last Wednesday that Chillingo will be publishing Touch KO. As part of the press release, I also put this new trailer out. Check it out!
While we have been finishing up Blush at Flashbang, I have still been working on boxing when I have been able. Now that Blush is done, I wanted to post up another update, so I just wrapped up a new video today showing some more progress. I have been working on adding a front-end menu with a career mode that includes stat tracking, character customization, and more. Also, my brother, Matt, has jumped on to develop the opponent AI.
As a final (important) note, the game now has a name: Touch KO! Everyone out there thought Flashbang people came up with game names using a dartboard. In actuality Brandon Boyer, who covered the game last time I put up a video, called the game Touch KO, so that is what I am calling it now too. Thanks for the unwitting suggestion!
At the Unite Conference last year I started working on a hobby project: a boxing game for the iPhone. I have basically just had weekends to work on it (minus the time spent on working on video tutorials and free plugins) so it has taken a little while. At any rate, I have enough done now to post up a short preview video. I am hoping to have enough done with the game to do a release of some kind within the next couple months, so keep your eyes peeled!
