Updated about page

It was getting a bit old.

Christmas blowout

Just thought I’d reveal some little tidbits!

Downloadable content

I’ll be running a server which contains downloadable content, there’s an option to check for updates when the game boots or if you’d rather do it manually. Thinking about it I’ll stick in a “check every X days” option too! DLC will be free and contain music, new maps, new graphics etc. There will also be the option to run your own DLC server, the most popular ones and servers ran by the team will turn up on the Tormi main menu, otherwise you just have to enter the address of the server in the menu or options screen. They will also have an age rating attached so little nippers don’t get sworn at! Dotted around the game are also a few areas where DLC will be downloaded, after a connection confirmation request.

Challenge Tower

Towards the end of the game a little tower will appear. As part of the DLC content the game will download new arena’s for the tower. The user can also make their own towers which contain 1-5 screens and can be puzzle based, combat based or whatever. The game saves a list of your best times of that tower map, sorta like a time trail mode. Only official maps will have online highscores though.

The level editor lets you choose the graphics (from a set) and song (from the game or your own).

The more popular user maps and official maps will only appear as DLC too. Though you can just download them manually and copy them to the games folder.

Multiplayer support

This hasn’t changed much. Player 1 controls the main guy, Player 2 or CPU controls Tsol. So far it’s local but if there is demand then I’ll release an update with online co-op.

And a general update - still working on the new graphics! Should have them all finished in the next few days. Also like to thank Mr. Pineapple who has been working really hard on some outstanding new tracks! Thinking about releasing a little soundtrack taster once we can fill a CD (35 minutes so far!).

I’ll try and get a trailer out in 7 days but I can’t promise anything!

Updates!

Added new artwork and edited the About page to detail some new features.

Should have a new trailer up and potentially a demo too for Xmas.

New Art

Just uploaded a new concept art piece to the Art page.

3rd trailer

Sections from the first hour of gameplay.

New category!

Music section is now online. Songs are automatically loaded through Quicktime (be sure to have it! I really don’t know what will happen if you don’t.), it’s also likely that this page will only ever had 4 songs on it to reduce load times. So expect some replacement songs in the future.
