Week #05 — LD41 and Release Date

Protolife

Protolife is an unique tower-based strategy game which gives you a direct control over the builder robot in a struggle against the hungry proto-life organism.

Release is closing, but we could not possibly miss the chance to participate in our favorite game jam again — Ludum Dare 41. We had a lot of fun with this one. This time we made a turn-based soccer game and it seems it's pretty fun to play.

Very inspiring! Now when this very much needed break is over, we are ready to get back to [b]Protolife[/b].

Our original goal was to release [b]Protolife[/b] in the end of May, but it seems we will have to shift the release date for 1-2 weeks to improve things that got into our blind spot and do the chapter 3 the proper treatment. Not much longer though, as the game is almost ready and we are eager to share it! We will update the release date soon. P.S.: This new game is called [b]Infernoculus[/b], you can try it here: https://graal.itch.io/infernoculus It's free.
