Great news!

Episode 2 coming really soon!

Remember when we announced that Oozi was awarded Semi-Finalist status in Dream Build Play? We were quite excited and hoped it might allow us to release the game on Xbox LIVE Arcade. However, three months later, we finally know it's not going to happen. The good news is that Episode 2 of Oozi's Adventure is already completed and submitted to Xbox LIVE Indie Games certification process. It means that it will likely be released within a week! We're going to announce the release date as soon as we know it, so stay tuned!

Oozi awarded in Dream Build Play

We're really excited to announce that Oozi: Earth Adventure was awarded Semi-Finalist status in Dream Build Play contest! You can see the full list of awarded games here:

Dream Build Play is a contest held by Microsoft and it's aimed at independent game developers creating a game for Xbox 360 console. Semi-Finalist status means that the game might be offered an XBLA publishing agreement, so keep your fingers crossed for Oozi!

Boss character development

Hello! This time we've got some development videos to share with you. They show the process of developing a boss character. The first one is 2 hours of work in 3 minutes and presents drawing of the character. The second is 40 minutes of work in 1 minute and is about animating him. Each animation takes about 40 minutes to create, and there are 50 characters in the game and each of them needs ten animations on average. Game development is hard work, but it's a lot of fun as well.

New trailer & screenshots

Hello! We're steadily working on the second episode and we should be able to release it within a month. We already have all major features implemented, you can watch them in this brand new Episode 2 Trailer:

Oozi and Dream Build Play

We keep working on the game. We have recently submitted a build for Dream Build Play. It's a competition held by Microsoft where you can win money by creating a Xbox XNA game. Part of our submission was a new trailer covering the gameplay, if you'd like to watch it I included it at the end of the post. And about the second episode of Oozi's Earth Adventure, we already have four story mode levels implemented, and we should be able to release the game sometime in July. We think that it's much more fun to play than the first one, but you'll have to wait to find out for yourselves.

Gameplay video from Episode 2

We've got a new gameplay video for you! As you can see Oozi is now able to perform wall jumps and punch enemies. And remember it's just the first level of episode 2, there's a lot more fun stuff in further levels!
