It's out!

Well, it's been out for a few weeks on Armor Games. We took the opportunity there to get it right before unleashing it on the public. Thanks to everyone who headed over there and left feedback, it helped immensely in refining the game and picking up some glaring issues.

So head over to the portal and enjoy while I continue my research for my next title which will be coming sooner rather than later.

The Last Stand 2

Cheers, Con.

I am a liar. Just throwing that out there. I'd said I was done with zombies, with defence games. I'd said that I was moving on. Well, I lied.

The genre roped me back in. The success of the first game (which I still can't grasp) was amazing, so I couldn't help but make it better and I started working on it again.

So here I am. 5 months into development on The Last Stand 2 and it's almost done.

For a feature list and screenshots head over to the ArmorBlog.

It is. Screenshots and more info before the end of the week.

I'm not working on the fighting game any more.

I've recieved some PM's of late that are bordering on hate mail because I wasn't working on a sequel to The Last Stand, which I find good and scary. Mostly scary though that people are that passionate about Flash games. To those who've sent me such mail, I applaud your commitment, but yeah, get out more. Really.

I am working on something though, and you will hear about it soon, promise.

I've been through a really busy 6 months. Things have been pretty crazy all round.

The Last Stand has been entered into the Independant Games Festival at GDC and I'll find out tomorrow if it makes the 29 finalists where it'll be in the running for best browser based game. The game has been hugely successful above and beyond anything I'd imagined. It made news on Kotaku and was on the front page of Digg for a while as well. A lot of this is due to the Newgrounds fans and I appreciate you all even though I might take 4 months to respond to PM's.

My work has kept me incredibly busy with 3 fairly major multiplayer flash titles being released before the holidays. This has kept me away from making my own games. Producing games all day, then coming home to do it is just too much. As a result, my fighting game has been shelved, as has a few other prototypes that I've been working on. I'm sure at least some of them will come back at some point.

But, there is good news. Things are slowing down again and as a result I'm back at it. More in a few days.

And no, it's not the sequel to The Last Stand.

I've had a lot of people asking what I've been up to and figured this was the best way to respond. Thanks to everyone that PM'd me with support, really appreciate it.

What I am working on is something completely different, which I feel is justified given that I spent 8 months working with guns/zombies. Don't fret though, it's a genre that I plan on revisiting at some stage.

In the meantime, here's a few EARLY screens from my latest project.
