Interviewed by 'Professional Geek' Steven Savage at 'Fan to Pro' Blog Just recently in May, I had the pleasure of meeting Steven Savage - author, public speaker, technology project manager and all-around professional geek. Things went so well that we decided to keep in touch. Naturally, when Steven recommended an interview with Revolver Games for his website, I thought it was a great idea. The questions he ended up asking me proved thoroughly thought-provoking. I really had to consider exactly what I felt and wanted to say. It was a great exercise that I would gladly participate in again! I think more interviewers should take the chance to ask the questions that they really want to ask. You can read the interview we had with Steven over at his 'Blog of Professional Geekery'! Revolver Games at Polaris 24 This weekend, some of the Revolver Games crew will be attending Toronto-based sci-fi convention Polaris 24. While there, we're going to be hosting a weekend-long high score contest for our most recent arcade style shoot-'em-up, Galaxy Parade! We're going to be offering all sorts of prizes and looking forward to just hanging out and talking games and creativity with everybody who comes along! If you're in the neighbourhood, don't hesitate to join us this weekend at Polaris 24! Check out some of our awesome prizes at the Galaxy Parade Blog!

Revolver Games Blogs Working Once More After a few months of having problems with our posting due in part to Blogger's stance on FTP publishing, we're glad to say that our development blogs are available for viewing and posting once more! We're now posting once more to Galaxy Parade, Bijoux Red and our other projects. We're still encountering a couple of issues, such as an unfortunate delay between the time you access our old, defunct blog and the time it redirects you to our new one, but we're currently changing the way that we publish posts entirely. This should solve all of our concerns and allow us to continue providing news and information on our work in an efficient and professional manner. Galaxy Parade Beta Available to Visha's Vanguard Members! Team Black Dog's Galaxy Parade now has a full four-level beta release available to the members of Revolver Game's playtest group, Visha's Vanguard! With the help of the dedicated playtest group, Team Black Dog hopes to release the full version of Galaxy Parade sometime in March! Expect a new website, and some gameplay videos, to launch with the release of the game... or maybe even a bit earlier. Galaxy Parade 'First Galaxy' Demo and Development Blog! Developed by Revolver Games' Team Black Dog, players can now get their first peek at Galaxy Parade's addicting arcade action! The First Galaxy Demo, available exclusively at the Galaxy Parade Development Blog, allows players to take control of the Starfighter Perseus on its final voyage into the Fifth Dimension! Galaxy Parade is currently set for a Winter release in late December. Stay tuned for more updates on Galaxy Parade's development at www.revolver-games.com/galaxyparade! Bijoux Red Playable Tutorial Demo! The first playable demo for Bijoux Red, which is incidentally also the first playable demo from Revolver Games, is now available at the Bijoux Red Development Blog site! First IGDA Meeting, Release Date News and More Today, key members of Revolver Games will be attending our first moderated discussion, and informal meeting, hosted by the Toronto chapter of the International Game Developers Association! We're all really excited and look forward to meeting, discussing and networking with other Toronto-based game developers. In other news, our friends over at Frozen North will be participating as panelists for a moderated discussion on running an Ontario game studio. Some of you probably noticed that the planned August release date for our Bijoux Red ARC Combat Demo came and went uneventfully. I guess missing release dates is nothing new in the game world, but we're certain that we've been able to put this time to good use by polishing our product even further. While we're currently uncertain of the new release date for the demo, we're pretty sure that things look good for late October/early November. Despite the delay, we look forward to unveiling a special surprise in the coming days. Remember that you can join our Facebook Group to stay current as we update our blogs and put out material. In other news, we're looking forward to revealing a few projects in the next few months, including plans and a possible prototype for a free arcade website from which players will be able to enjoy our many projects, keep track of achievements and network with other players. We're working very hard to put out only our best and keep everyone updated! Bijoux Red Demo Release Date Announced! After a rocky start, progress on our first title, Bijoux Red - Episode 1: Law of Dogs, has skyrocketed in the past few months! With that, I'm very proud to announce the release date for Bijoux Red's ARC Combat Demo, coming August 19th, 2009! Be sure to check out our regular updates at bijouxred.com, and stay posted for more news on the upcoming demo release! |
