LAZARUS - iPad shmup soft launch

Post by SpiltMilkStudios »

Hi everyone!

I hope you remember Lazarus from when we posted some pics and vids and details a few months back.

Well, we're soft launching in the next few days! We've kinda been forced to otherwise we lose the name on the AppStore (long story) but regardless, we'll be allowing players in New Zealand, and some other smaller countries, to play the game early!

We'd love to know if any of you would like it released in your home countries? What we're after are smaller markets where we can try out balance (of EVERYTHING) with real players, but without spoiling everyone's impressions with a worldwide launch.

In the meantime, here's a video we made of it running on PC a little while back - we submitted to Rezzed (a show in the UK in a few weeks) but didn't get in, sadly. Lots of good games did though!

Let me know what you think! :D (don't hold back!)

Am bums. Because of an issue with Apple's software update - and UDK not updating their tools soon enough - we've hit a bump. We can't submit right now, and have to wait and indeterminate amount of time before we get a fix.

This sucks :( (but the push to get the game ready has meant it's come along in leaps and bounds... so excited!)
