Sneaky Guy Search

As some of you know there was recently a game making competition on Game Jolt.
I made a game called Sneaky Guy Search. It's a 2 player game in which one player hides while the other searches(a 1 player mode with GJ highscores is included as well!).



Game Idea was not mine(unfortunately) it was inspired by these 2 guys:

http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=529671

My game could almost be called a direct clone of "Heist"(from gmc link above). I felt like it would be a good idea to remake it for a couple of reasons. 1. Heist doesn't have very imaginative graphics. 2. Copying others ideas is a good way to learn things. 3. It was fun. 4. Heist was missing some features that I would have liked. Now I can make those features myself.


I plan on adding on some more updates and stuff to the game later. It needs music and sounds, too. I had a lot of fun with this one, though.

I hope you enjoy the game!

Sleepshooter featured on YYG

Sleepshooter has, indeed, been featured on the Yoyogames Sandbox! I've always dreamed of getting one of my games featured there, but somehow it doesn't seem as glamorous now as it would have been a few years ago. It just seems really dead there.

There are a few other tasty things you'll be glad to hear... I've been working on switching the online highscore system for Rocket Leaper over to GameJolt. I had previously been using Clockwork, but unfortunately the guy who was running that is taking it down or something. I'm also implementing some delicious trophies for the game as well, so you'll be able to get some yummy GameJolt EXP points!

A couple of my games have been getting bits of publicity as well, so that's always good.
Vision Pill was featured on Indie Impressions and FreeIndieGam.es!
Jerry Clouds was featured on Indie Statik and FreeIndieGam.es!

I also have access to some dainty informations on a few of the games uploaded to GameJolt. Ice Cream Dodger, for instance, after being downloaded nearly 700 times, has only been beaten 14 times(with well over 7000 deaths). Shevrolet Shotgun, on the other hand, with a bit over 700 downloads, has been beaten 112 times(with just a bit over 2000 deaths).
Yeah, I really like this handy lil GameJolt API thing :3

Until next time~
