Ultim8p00's Horizon (Katakijin hacked!!)

Posted by ultim8p00 on Jan. 30, 2008, 12:01 p.m.

Well, I'm on break right now and I have about 30 minutes to kill. So I figured, why not post a blog? Heh.

Well, as the title says, this blog is about what yo expect from me in 2008. Yeah, I know January 30th is a little bit late to do the whole "It's a brand new year" thing, but whatever.

Anyways here we go:

Katakijin: Katakijin will be released somewhere between Febuary 27th and the first week of March. Why such a big gap? I'm lazy and I need as much flexibility as possible. In fact, let's make that to the SECOND week of March. Yeah.

Katakijin has officially been hacked by someone on the GMC, which is to be expected from the GMC. The person even gave me a link to the hacked source. It's actually much smaller than my build but contains everything and plays flawlessly. I was pretty pissed and said some nasty things, but it's no big deal.

Asura Does NOT Cry: This is a project I've already started working on. It's basically inspired by Devil May Cry, kind of like Katakijin was inspired by Ninja Gaiden. It uses the Katakijin engine, but the combo system is limited, but not so dial-a-combo. There are fewer combos to pull off, but you can cancel any combo into any combo (unlike in katakijin where you have to dash out of a combo to begin a new one). And also there will be guns. If you've played Lucon, you know I do guns well.

Project Winter: This is the game I started as part of the YYG winter comp. You've seen a screenshot of this before. Basically, a guy is returning home from a trip and his bus crashes in the mountains. Everybody dies but him. It's cold and all he has is a fancy jacket and a lighter. A short exploration game.

The Undertaking: Yeah, that sword game. I've been experimenting with it here and there and I think I've found the sweet spot for it. I'll be working on this one for a while.

Execution Day: Previously Project Lucon. This thing has undergone so many name changes I don't even know anymore. It's a shooting game with a huge emphasis on blowing shit up. I'm considering teaming up with Chicken and taking this thing online.

So yeah, that's pretty much it. I realized that I have so many games but not one of them have been completed. 2008 is the year that I really want to concetrate on and finish them.

By the way, seems like a lot more people liked Katakijin than I thought. It got reviewed on some French website and they liked it a lot. A bunch of russian sites also liked it, but one dissed it saying that the controls sucked and that it was a rip-off of knytt. They even said something about waiting for Knytt inspired merchandize. Duchebags.

It's 12 noon now and I guess I'll be late to my Calculus class. Oh well.

Flu, ultim8 is a great spriter D:

I know, i'm just saying, that he has 5 games going, plus college i think. It'd be tough for anyone to do all of the work on 5 games, and manage to get through college.
