We’ve been deep at work over here at Vetra Games, so we decided to do a post with an update on the new stuff we’ve been working on!
You Still Won’t Make It
We’re still busy developing You Still Won’t Make It. However, the game is taking shape now! Here’s a development screenshot of the game (click to enlarge):
We still need to add a lot of things, (blood, maybe?), but the game is doing great progress. We expect that the game will have much more levels than the original, with perhaps a few levels inspired by the old game. Additionally, the game will have new gameplay features: you can see some of them there!
We can’t say when exactly it is coming out, but it should be out soon.
App Composer
We’ve released a new version of App Composer!
The new version (1.3) includes sandboxing and improved packaging that targets GameMaker developers. We also messed up the update system, so you might want to get this via a manual download. The update system is fully functional in this version, however! Get it here!
39dylib
We’ve released a new version of 39dylib (which is a programming extension for Game Maker). This new version features Windows networking, iOS networking, the 39dylib comscripts, and more. We’ve also released the source!Get it here!
In other news…
We’re updating the price sidebar in order to reflect prices in US dollars, British Pounds, and Euros.
We’re tentatively planning a new game. We’re not saying what!
Everyone’s favourite suicidal salaryman returns! Get Karoshi Factory today, and help Mr. Karoshi and his friends end their lives in this installment of the popular series!
We’re pleased to announce that You Probably Won’t Make It was reviewed on printed German magazine MacEASY. We’re pretty happy that YPWMI is getting this sort of exposure!
The sequel to YPWMI, “You Still Won’t Make It”, is in development and should be out this year.
You Still Won’t Make It, the sequel to You Probably Won’t Make It, has been announced via issue 11 of indie(Magazine). There’s an exclusive article covering the game, and you can get the magazine here!
We hope to provide more details as time goes on (although the magazine provides plenty!). However, you’ll be pleased to know that the game is in an advanced stage of development, which means that it should be out soon-ish. :)
This is our new website! It should be 90% done by this point… as you can see, it’s prettier, more browsable, and made by this awesome guy called Łukasz Andrzejowski (who also designed MoaCube‘s website). We hope that this’ll become our permanent site for a while.
The new games…
We have a couple of games in the workshop, ready soon! Karoshi Factory should be out in September 6th! This time Mr. Karoshi is not the only one who is feeling suicidal, and it’s up to you to help him and his buddies find new ways to kill themselves!
We’re getting ready to announce something from HiVE, but it’s currently deep in development (and stuck in a dimensional paradox of unfinished OGG playback technologies!). Expect some news soon.
We’re also set to announce a new game we’ve been developing ourselves, sometime next week, so keep your eyes peeled. We’re planning to make the incursion back into Windows development with this new game. :D
The future…
We’ve got some stuff in the planning and some in the dimension of developer procrastination, but we’re pretty excited about what is coming for the future! YoYo Gamesjust recently announced GameMaker HTML5, and we’re expecting to adopt it and use it to develop various new exiting things! YoYo Games has also said that Game Maker Studio is in the works, which should allow for iOS and Android publishing! Rest assured that the evil Vetra Games DevTeam is already planning (and procrastinating!) on what game we’ll develop for the platform. >:D
We’re currently undergoing a site re-construction process. If some bits and pieces are missing or anything tried to bite your leg off – well, bear with us! :P It should be over soon. :)
Most content should already be online and new content is constantly coming in! So feel free to browse our website. :D
