After the saga with the publisher ended, I was pretty demoralized, we all were.  But I really didn’t have time to sulk.  We were about broke.  The money we made from the original Guns and CreaVures was running out.  I didn’t really know any publishers, or anyone for that matter, who would give us money.  We had just ended a publisher ordeal after all.  Looking around the room, I owed it to everyone to keep us going.   Making games is what what we always wanted to do.  We had sacrificed too much, came too far to just lay down and quit.   Continue reading “Guns of Icarus Online Post-Mortem – Part II: Starting Over”

Guns of Icarus Online is over three years of our lives.  In the span of creating this game, our room had caught fire, our building had endured a great flood, we had been stomped on by a publisher to near death, and overcame one of the worst game launches ever, releasing on the night of a hurricane.  Sleepless nights can’t begin to portray the summation of all stress and elation.  In this span I’ve gotten everything from pneumonia to a concussion from walking straight into a doorframe after a few late nights in a row.  With the game now over a year old, I figured it’s a good time to reminisce on how this game came to be, the major the decisions and crisis we faced, how we overcame them, and what lessons we learned.  Through out this journey, our vision and faith in who we are as a team would be thoroughly tested.  There were so many things we didn’t know and many struggles.  To us, this journey wasn’t just about making a game, but also about trying to make a difference together as a small team.   Continue reading “Guns of Icarus Online Post-Mortem – Part I: Publisher Hell”

We made it to Friday! It’s been a busy week with a patch, hotfix (emphasis on hot for pun purposes,) and working with casters for a major push for Guns of Icarus.

As always we’ll be holding the Dev Fireside chat at 3 pm eastern, 7 pm GMT, on Twitch.tv/gunsoficarus.

Hey everyone!
It’s Friday and that means it’s time for our weekly progress report and fireside chat. Howard is off doing important things leaving Eric and I in charge of the fireside. That means we’re going off script and acting crazy by answering questions and talking about Guns of Icarus development. (and yes, these two wacky and wild individuals are available for parties.)  Join us twitch.tv/gunsoficarus at 3 pm eastern, 7 pm GMT!

During the fireside Co-Op will be a big talk especially since we got to show off footage last week and you’ll have the lead designer to talk to, but we will also be talking about Ship customization and our plans for the next patch.

After the jump you’ll find out what the team has been working on. Continue reading “Weekly Progress Report 4/18/2014”

Hey everyone!
At 3 pm eastern we are showing off Guns of Icarus Co-Op mode live! Since many people won’t be able to make it to PAX we thought it’d be a lot of fun to give you the opportunity to have a first look at what we’re working on.

There will still be a live chat so feel free to stop in and talk to me as I try my best to show you everything we’re showing off at PAX!

The standard format of dev reports after the break. Continue reading “Weekly Progress Update: 4/11/2014 and live Co-Op!”
