The Mother of All Post-Mortems

Hey All,
I know I don’t write lots of post mortem or design posts or talking about what I am doing for long time. I think that led me to be good in lots of stuffs but became some how not good in Game Design.

In my view Game Design is about talking, trying stuff showing it to other good designers and having feedback 🙂 the same with level design 🙂 The problem is that most of my friends in Egypt either don’t have time (if they had experience) or they are still amateur so they are just amazed with what I am doing without making a good discussion :S

Hey All,
Alone in the Park is now on ArmorGames and on MochiGames and on Kongregate and GameJolt 🙂 and it got featured on MochiGames and GameJolt on the release which was cool 🙂 I know the game didn’t do well on ArmorGames but it is still a nice milestone for me to have a game on ArmorGames 🙂

That’s everything for now, I know its not much but I wanted to tell you all about that 🙂

P.S: If you following me on twitter (@amidos2006) you probably knew all that before the post 😀

Simple Love my First Global Game Jam entry

Hey All,
Long time as usual (my traditional intro) since the last post 🙂 but I am so busy these days, although I managed to enter the Global Game Jam for the first time 😀 YaaaaaaY 😀

Since the Theme was Heart Beating and I always wanted to make a love game and romance one (although I am not romantic person but I always love Romance Comedy Movies) so it was the time to create one.

I think words and music and environment are the ones that stimulates emotions in the player so I thought a lot how to make the game feels nice and amazing till I got the idea of playing with words and making worlds have shapes of hearts.

2012 Year Recap and 2013 Hopes

Hey All,
I wish everyone is happy today and aiming for better in next year 🙂 than 2012 🙂
This year was amazing for me although I got depressed and stopped working on games and other bad things happen but an overall look it was an amazing year with lots of games released and some of them were large games that took a lot of time to finish

So Let’s Recap this year fast, First thing is my games let’s talk about this year

The Power: I finished that game last year (2011) as a collaboration project with Alexitron, It took around a year to be finished (not entire year working on it). The game stayed too long in sponsoring I sent emails to lots of people begging them to sponsor it for some good money so I told Alexitron I will release it for free but he was in need for money so he told me lets sell it cheap. So it got sponsor from Game Pirate (it was a bit low deal but I liked working with them).

Hey All,
I know its a bit late as usual to tell you about my new game Evil Goat which is made for LudumDare25 (You are a Villain).

Thanks to Aro769, MadMath, Guzah, Fake-Zarkel, DrominEcho, keharriso on Newgrounds for helping me to correct the minimum of most of the levels.

Take Long and Longer in Sponsoring but its OUT

Hey All,
From the title of the post I am sure some have guessed what I am gonna say. Yup what you thought is true Alone in the Park is out now 😀 YaaaaaaY 😀

Really this game took too long to be finished and too long to be sponsored and published 😀 I was gonna try to sell it or release for free in the end but Thanks to Tom Fulp I talked to him and he is really a nice guy he offered for me sponsoring rather than release for free 🙂 really his a very nice guy 🙂

Why we talk a lot now let’s go kill some evil mushrooms in Alone in the Park.

Mindless GameJolt GameJam 3 Entry

Hey All,
As usual I am telling you at the start of the post that It has been too long since last post and I update my twitter faster than that blog so if you want to know faster updates follow me on twitter (@amidos2006).

I think I became a little expected and repetitive on the starting of any of my blog post so I tried to repeat it this time in a new way 😛

Recently I entered GameJolt GameJam 3 but unfortunately I didnt notice that the jam started 2 days before so I didn’t manage to submit on time so I worked on it for about 48 hours but not like a jam it is distributed on several days.
