Title: Mined Out!
Post by: Ian Price on 2011-Apr-29
I appear to have a penchant for exclamation marks ("!") after the name of my games, don't I?

Anyway following the "!" that follwed B'lox, here's another one, following the name "Mined Out"

This is a straight forward brand new update of the old pc classic MineSweeper - the bomb location puzzle game that comes with every copy of Windows (that I've used, anyway).

Here are some screenies - there are currently five themes (I'm open to suggestions for more) and they are still a bit WIP.

There's currently no Win/Lose message dialogue (you know when you've done either) or a way to exit from the game, but those should be done later today.

It'll be available as a very cheap app on the Palm first, then maybe iPhone, with a freebie pc release soon.

I know the game is pretty much ten-a-penny, but I've played numerous versions and they all suck. Mined Out uses a one touch Tap & Hold feature for selecting squares (quick tap for guess, tap&hold to place/remove flag).

Of course, if anyone here wants to play the game early, then PM me. I will post Promo Codes once it's on the App Catalog/App Store. :)

Great!

Did you extend thing in any way? ...will go check RetroRemakes.
IndieDB and jay is games are possibly some good places to let know.

There is one new press-kit around to help us out on things here:

I´m not sure it could be of any use though. :good:
