My new project: DRAFTED!

27 07 2008

Hi, here’s my first game project, on wich I was working from some time now…

DRAFTED: Ink Wars!

In the game, you lead your army to the victory, defeating all the enemy soldiers: would be a pretty commonplace gameplay… if the deathmatch wasn’t fought into paper sheets!

In fact, you can’t command directly your fellow soldiers, you can however bring them to victory drawing any object with your pencil… you can draw big obstacles, large rolling spheres, and anything that you think would crush the enemy; using special mouse gestures you will spawn weapons, wich can be put to good use by the soldiers… just pay attention to not squash your own men ;) !

It’s better to be careful when managing your soldiers, because they are deeply influenced by their mood, wich encourages them into charging, but can also make them run away… and they are made of Ink, the only resource in the game; it’s better to not lose too many of them…

Maybe you can imagine it like an encounter between Crayon Physics, Lemmings and Worms… with much more new features!

Here’s some screenshots, wich show the bases of the game: the ability to draw physical objects of any shape, moving soldiers and multiple sheets:

I hope to put in it many more features, like different “styles” of soldiers, multiplayer, a mod system, and much more… but for now i will try to have a working demo ;)

Stay tuned for other updates…

I will try to release a video as soon as possible :D

Hi, I’m Tommaso, from Italy – Lead Programmer and (for now I hope ;) ) unique member of Over Mind Games!

As you can see, the blog is still heavily under construction… it will be meant to share and talk about my attempts at game-developing, and to be a place where I can have feedbacks and critics about my games…

even if these days I put my greatest effort in enjoying the holydays, I have some game projects ready to be showed off…

More news coming soon! ;)
