Hamster Drop is released!

[OBJECTION MAN]

I was afraid to resurrect it, since it was from March, and I've seen thread resurrection not taken too kindly here before. Thanks for merging it.

Hey it's your topic, the information is relevant, and you're not a noob.

Mostly by members. Honestly, as long as it's relevant to the topic, we mods really do not care that much! But no biggie. The info is out there, and the topics are merged.

O:
Will have to take a look when it comes out on Windows!

[Zan]

So, do any of us RPM-ians have an iOS device or know anyone who does?

To go into a little more detail about my own contribution to the game: I've worked on it as a tester, level designer, editor and pixel artist. As a neat little bonus and a nod to the 8-bit era of gaming, first-time players are greeted by an NES-style tutorial. Perhaps I could show some of those pixels in the future...

In the meantime, check out the deviantart page of our Lead Artist:

He's an amazing animator that even has several Mega Man pieces in his portfolio.

Actually, in my own utter stupidity, I just realized that I could play it on my iPod touch. I keep forgetting I have an updated model.

[Zan]

Let us know what you think! (Also feel free to make screenshots or videos if you can.)

[Protoman Blues]

I shall download it when I get home.

[Ladd Spencer]

If any of you manage to get to play it please let us know what you think. And yeah, Android is so often requested. I'll be sure to post about it here as soon as it's ready!

I wish I could, but I don't have any iCrap. Can't wait for the other releases.

Nice!

I look forward to the Windows version.

[ViperAcidZX]

Sorta late, but I looks like somebody was eager for this game.

[OBJECTION MAN]

Yes. That is our biggest fan, haha. He has been very supportive.

Also...

First time gameplay by iTouchPower:

[Sakura Leic]

I just shamelessly plugged in this game to my anime club.

[OBJECTION MAN]

Thanks! We appreciate all the support we can get.

.....Penguins?

[Phi]

Penguins in a hamster game?

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

[Dr. Wily II]

I knew it all along... THOSE EVIL PENGUINS!!

[Flame]

Woot. Tried it out on my android. Its surprisingly well optimized. Runs ptetty smoothly even on my [parasitic bomb] phone

[Zan]

How do you like the game itself, Flame?

[Flame]

Fun and adorable.the smooth way it runs helps too

Edit: ive noticed something that happens sometimes. Fairly often actually, i touch the screen and the character doesn't move.  Not sure if its my phone or what. Its most noticed during the hamster rocket segments. 

Also, sometimes the game crashes as soon as i open it. I open, loading screen and music starts, and it crashes, telling me i must close the program.  Music keeps playing until a press the button to close though. This is much rarer. (And not really that big a deal to me).

Were you guys at PAX East? I saw someone wearing a Hamster Drop button on my way out today.
