Indiegame - Hammerwatch beta/demo

    Quote from Corwin

    By the way, I'm curious about the amount of crap you had to go through to get it released: do you need to go through certification processes, getting it rated, etc. before you can get it on Steam or does Greenlight basically let you bypass all that? Do you need to set up an official company?


    I am very much in the mindset of working on an indie game in the near future, but those are questions I've never managed to get answers to. Basically, how much of a pain is it to get it out there once you're confident it's good enough?


    Thanks, and congrats on the moneys and fame and all that!


    Not much at all really, once you go greenlit you get on steam more or less, you obviously need to sign contracts etc

    You need an official company, most annoying part. I would rather pay someone to do all that company crap than do it myself, I'm no entrepreneur, I just wanna make game-things, not run and administer company matters - not even on the smallest scale.

    I'm about to play it.

    Who wanna join me?

    I'll check this thread in 10 mins. If nobody wanna hangout, I'll play by myself lol


    btw, hipshot! what crazily awesome post-effects you guys got there! O_O!


    edit:

    woooooh! the game is so fun and simple! loved the art style, the mood and the little secrets scattered around the level. I played as Warlock and got a combo upgrade. I could perform only a single combo, but I noticed its powerful effect. Gotta play more! Fun.

    I demand details ?!


    He picked the pinkest of brushes and started gayifying the most important layer - then he saved and shut down the computer...

    Afterwards when we were drinking beer I had to drink so much to num the pain of a lost 2h-workday. I got so drunk I had to stay home the entire day afterwards.

    Finally got round to playing this today on the flight home, great stuff, really enjoyed it so far, got to act 2, going to whip this out for the next game night I have and play 4 player.


    edit - act 4 now, really enjoying it, act 3 was a little mazy made it a bit hard to navigate but still fun. Have you guys talked with Sony about putting this on ps3/ps4 because this would fit perfectly and be better than 90% of the indie games on there.

    I met this girl at Nordic Game who said she'd started as an sound-intern for Rovio in Sweden. And after chatting a bit she also told me about her being in a band and I really fucking liked their songs. You'll notice that they have some retro-games remixes of their songs as well.


    And then she told me about what games she has composed and she brought up this game. At the time I could not remember hearing about it (sorry:P) and she played me the main theme music and I loved that shit so I made a note to check out this game later. And what do you know, its hipshots cool retro dungeon crawler.


    Small world

    Gonna finally buy this and give it a go now


    Hehe, small world yes - and I understand that people don't know about the game, it's not like I announced it on Facebook =)

    Got it on steam, played it until I died (an hour or something), then i went back to dota, like I always do


    I really liked that I could hit as fast as I wanted, only limited by my fingering speed lol
