Ripple dot zero – developer timelapse
Last week I spent one entire day polishing the game and tracking down bugs, and during that time I had a timelapse program running in the background. It turned out to be a pretty fun (and tease-y) video since I had to jump in and out of a lot of the levels.
The music is from the game, and composed by Simon.
The game still doesn’t have an official deadline, but we’re working against an internal deadline, and as soon we can confirm it we’ll be sure to let you know.

Cabin Fever!
This weekend me and Simon had a mini-camp dedicated to Ripple development.
We shut ourselves inside Simons country cabin with our computers, and had a very productive time. Here are a few photos from the event.
As we arrived to Simon's cottage the rain was pouring. Excellent programming weather!
Simon is composing a few new musical pieces for the final boss battle.
Nutritious dinner!
Simon is taking a break from the usual pixel-pushing and is making a big ripple painting for the launch.
Taking a break down by the lake. Clearing our heads by doing some fishing. Tommy catched two!.
Second day. Rain is still pouring, but creativity is high. Simon is working on another painting and Tommy is tweaking the final boss.
Late night demands a lot of instant coffe
Thats all for now. Come back soon, more info about the game is coming up.
See you next time!

Ripple Dot Zero – Deleted Music
Ripple Dot Zero have been ongoing for about three years now, and the music has been iterated back and forth all that time. There is so much recorded music that won’t make it into the final game, so I thought that it would be a good idea to release some of it. Music has always been an intergral part of the Ripple Dot Zero project, since the video game music of the early 90s is part of the soundtrack of our lives. I remember plugging in a RCA cable to the Mega Drive making mix tapes, a bit embarassed that I never got what Oasis was all about.
Well, here’s the link:

Sneaky peeky
There’s a paparazzo in Simon’s apartment!
As Simon is playing through one of the levels in Ripple Dot Zero I’m taking the opportunity to document it with my mobile camera. Well… it’s been a long day of development today =)
Lets call it a sneaky preview or something, and remember that both the game and the level is under development. Nor does the chaotic desktop and foul looking dude in front of the monitor represent Pixeltruss Inc. or any of it’s affiliates.

Metro Siberia Beatbox
I just found this video on Youtube. Someone is beatboxing to the soundtrack of Metro Siberia (the first game released by Simon and myself, the original score was composed by Simon).
Awesome! =D
(P.S. You can play Metro Siberia here)
