Mortar Melon - Ice World Coming Soon!

Think I am going to buy this.

rgeuens Thanks! I gave some tips buried in this thread somewhere:

Some very subjective tips:

• Always make a style board before you start a project.
• Colour theory is more important than anything else.
• You don't need to be able to draw, you just need to be able to keep going until it looks good.
• Focus on removing detail rather than adding it.
• Don't look at games for creative inspiration.

A couple of sites for inspiration:

• Society6
• Dribbble

Also if you like the art for Mortar Melon, check out the game Mush that I also did art for.

Cheers everyone. Artwork is finally ingame after an all-nighter ;)

Awesome concept there! Melon go!! <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

First ingame shot. Going to replace the dunes once I'm on schedule with levels ;)

Cool desing, it really feels like a polar adventure. The fruits could also have a bit of frost on them so that they look more frosen. And some of the fruits could be trapped inside iceblocks and the melon has to crush the chunk of ice to get them.

Great! Can't wait for a non-windows 8 version (If any)

I also liked Mush (It's link is here somewhere)

Great job!

Cheers,

Another completely unexpected and crazy development. Mortar Melon has been nominated for best casual game and best debut game at the TIGA Awards. More info here: 2013 TIGA Games Industry Awards finalists.

Wow, fantastic news! Just cast my vote, for Mortar Melon (of course)!

We'll be keeping our fingers crossed    <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Can you make the game for iOS and Android, and Steam?

— iOS is coming very soon. Android shortly after that. We can't do Steam I'm afraid due to our publishing arrangement.

thehen If you can't do for Steam, I have another PC stores for you.

-Desura

-Allmyapps

-Intel AppUp

-Softpedia

But you can publish it after you publish another versions.

— unfortunately not, our publisher has exclusive distribution rights. They'll most likely only use their own distribution platform for PC/Mac.

thehen, I just voted you game for game of the year on TIGA.

toralord thanks!
