Hey guys, just a reminder… while Tim Schafer got over 3 million to develop his next game, our buddies Mike and Caldwell only need like $2,000 to kickstart their own iOS game! Maybe you could chip in a few bucks and help ’em out? If you love puzzles and cats, you are pretty much obligated!

THIS MAN IS A GENIUS, GIVE HIM SOME KICKSTARTER MONEY!!!
While we are at it, we should get someone to make a Halolz game for abso-freaking-lutely no reason.

What would a Halolz game be like? Maybe, you are a man on a mission from the gods, Gary Oak and Captain Falcon to kill the evil Tibbers who got rid of all of the Halo submissions. The recurring boss (in the same vain as Gilgamesh from FFV or Ultros from FFVI) would be Kratos. And every so often ponies will make their way into the adventure and you, as a typical Halolzian, have to choose whether to love them or hate them. Also, there would be an optional super boss, Shawn. Defeating him brings the forums back.
I'd play it.

It'll be on iPhone and iPad at launch, and then possibly Android later.

It will be on both iPhone and iPad at least to begin with.

I guess since with all these iOS apps this should be i-Haloz.

I'll save it for when Diablo III comes.

For such a simple game, the demonstration looks quite crappy. The "marble" isn't responsive at all and look how he is having trouble to hit the hole during the last minute. I wouldn't even bother to buy this game for 50ct if I actually owned an iPad or iPhone.

I'm sorry to hear that, but right now the game is still pretty early in development (hence the Alpha designation.) What I mean is that I'm still implementing most of the game mechanics. So I haven't had a chance to tune things like the ball's movement, let alone play test the game so that I can start tuning stuff like that.
Reply
Well, so I hope for the others you will do a lot of implementing and tuning for the final game. I am still not the audience you are aiming at, but I wish you good luck!

I would but... well... I donated 100$ for the Doublefine Kickstarter and well...the Guild Wars 2 $150 special edition is $150... so... I'm broke... I totally wish I could though =(
But doesn't the Guild Wars 2 special edition look awesome?

It looks like a piece of paper with shapes on it? That hardly seems worth $150.

I couldn't get the picture to work =\

I think asking for $3,000 to make an iOS app is a little too much. Is he just asking for rent money or what?
