New Samurai Duel screens from the beta

I drunk tested the crap out of this game. It’s going to make me buy an iPad, making it a 509.99 dollar video game.

Here are some screens from the Samurai Duel beta! We are on the fast track to submit the game to Apple this weekend. As you can see we are going for a minimal look with simple touch controls. Samurai Duel is a two-player battle of speed and accuracy controlled by one finger. We’ve done lots of play testing with drunk adults and everyone seems to have a lot of fun with it!

Joe has been working on The Great Pacific for a while now, but he needs help getting it over the finishing line. The Kickstarter Fund will be used to help pay his artist, editor, designer, and letterer on the project, which is what Kickstarter is for.

From the Kickstarter page: 

Great Pacific is a full-color sci-fi adventure comic book series set to debut in the US comics market in October 2012….

… Great Pacific tells the story of Chas Worthington, recent heir to one of the richest oil fortunes and most successful corporations in American history. In a defiant act that seems crazy to most and criminal to many, he sheds his former life of wealth and influence to settle the infamous Great Pacific Garbage Patch, planting his flag and declaring the environmental wasteland a new, sovereign country.

The art is fucking amazing, really, and I’m ashamed to say I didn’t even know the Garbage Path was a real thing.

You can become a backer of the project here.

My friend and ex-co worker (as in we sat right next to each for something like five years) Nina Walia skipped town and headed to the West Coast last year to work on this project for Nike. If you knew her you can see how this would be 100% right up her alley.

It launched today and I’m sure she’ll get some sleep now.
