This year I attempted something I had never attempted before. A month long game jam. This game jam requires your project to be open source and I teamed up with two other programmers to make a game for this game jam. The theme of the game jam was ‘MoonShot’. Please check out the trailer above.
You can play the game here: https://tompouchergames.itch.io/beyond-the-crater

This site hasn’t been active in a long time, due to University work where I do Games Computing. Now that my first year exams are over I’ve taken to develop a game or games over the holiday. Here’s a look at Project Conquer.
Any comments on here or the YouTube video will be taken into heavy consideration due to its early development. A trello page for the game is currently private but will be made available soon. Maybe I should get one for the Site as well to increase my activity.
Enjoy,
Tom
Kid Icarus finally got a revival, it’s move to 3D was drastically different and a lot of fun.
I never really got into the original Kid Icarus partly because I was awful at it, either way until Super Smash Bros Brawl I never would have imagined how much of an important IP the game was. Pit was one of my favorite characters to play as in Super Smash Bros Brawl. I was originally quite skeptical because I had never really ventured into the genre of on the rails shooters apart from Lylat Wars on the N64(which I loved), and also the line Pit said in the trailer “Sorry to keep you waiting!” IT’S BEEN 25 YEARS PIT! Anyway on with the review.
