Rose and Time - Sophie Houlden

[SophieH]

Game just went live; 10 levels free, 10 more for $2.99

I have a bad habit of forgetting about forum threads I start, but I'll try to keep this tab open for as long as I can if you have any questions, feedback, or whatever, about the game (if I do go silent, you can tweet at me or email me!)




Description:

• A stealth, time-travelling, puzzle game.
• Collect crystals to time travel
• Rewind out of paradoxes
• 20 Mind/Time bending puzzles
• Story with hand-drawn illustrations
• Works with 360/PS3 controllers

I hope you can find time to give it a try, and enjoy it

Wow, that looks really cool. I'm impressed. I need to download this now. In the end, 20 levels? What are the chances that another pack may release down the road? I onloy aks because sometimes it seems like people release games for a system when an expansion pack would be just fine instead. Just curious is all.

thanks for the nice words guys, I really appreciate it

What are the chances that another pack may release down the road?

chances are pretty close to zero; I've tried a few different things and I have put some thought into what else I could add to the game. but anything new either doesn't gel well with the core gameplay, the feeling of the game, or is just too frustrating. In the end the game feels complete to me. it's not impossible that I'll go back and add more, but I'd rather spend the time working on something fresh

Any chance you'll port any of your other existing games to the Ouya? Like a Sophie Houlden megapack or individually?

a megapack won't happen, but a few games are likely to make it across to OUYA. assuming the porting process isn't too much work for them, I'd like to try putting Dream Fishing, Boxgame, UnderPogo, mega popoidz, maybe dogfight and maaaaaaaaybe Swift*Stitch (though that's in a weird limbo right now)

goodness that list is longer than I expected it to be ^__^;

now that I think on it... Frudglebutt might be interesting to develop further as an OUYA game.

no promises on anything though, I work on stuff that interests me and what I feel I can afford to work on, and that changes all the time ^__^;

I love the art. Looks like crash bandicoot.

Very clever game indeed this. Such a simple yet brilliantly executed and innovative mechanic. Plus it really makes you think. One of the most original games on the OUYA for sure.

I gave it a like. This needs to get out the sandbox and work its way to the recogntion it deserves. I love it and would happily buy more levels.

The concept of this game sounds trippy. Love trippy games.
