And then the world ended

Due to recent hardware failure, Jet Pack Jive is being put on hiatus. The main computer used in development is no longer operational and the software required is not on back up computer. Production will resume once the computer issues have been fully resolved. Until then I will see about posting up artwork or covering design basics. More news will follow next week.

On the Road

I am currently getting the game pieced together. The sound should not take up too much time, and the game will be set for a release sometime between October 15th and 25th.

Good with the Bad

Update time. All of the art pieces and minor details will be finished by the end of this month. Unfortunately, it will not be released until mid October. I will need to generate some new audio coding in order to improve the general sound quality, and this will take some time and testing. However, I am thinking of adding one more demo release before I submit the final version of the game. This should catch any new issues present with the fixes from the first round of feedback. So far the control feedback was the most helpful, and the game is many times better than it was in its first public WIP build. Hopefully the new menu system will pass with flying colors.

The Home Stretch

Update time again. More art has been produced for the game, but it will be a tough to get the game released by the 30th. Never the less, I will continue to work on the project with the full intention of releasing it before this month is finished.

Reading the Menu

The fixes are done and the final art bits for the menus and cutscenes are being created. It will be close, but the game should be released before the end of the month. More news to come next week.
