Machination Update

Update #9 · May 21, 2011 · comment

We have the badges en-route to us now, so the work of assembling the reward packs begins in earnest. We will post an image of the exclusive Kickstarter pin badges when we receive the delivery. We're very excited to see them!

The art revamp on the game has continued, with a fantastic new background replacing the placeholder artwork and really emphasizing the steampunk aspects of the game. Again, we will post some new images when we have some completed screenshots.

Our next build of the game should have fully working Tesla Ranger spies and the ability for conveyors to run in additional directions, which will help vary the map layout and add a little additional mayhem. If we can capture some good quality video, we'll make a short video just for Kickstarter backers as a special thank you for helping us to make our game a reality.

Next update will be a little more graphic heavy, as we close in on the final look of the game and get all the pieces we need for the rewards together. Stay tuned!
