  • Thanks samblack, glad you like it!

    We use Adobe illustrator for most of our graphics work. PoP! is currently only available on WP8 & Win 8, so we haven't had to worry about wrappers yet. But during testing I've been using CocoonJS. It certainly seems to perform better than Crosswalk, for us at least!

    Hope that helps you!

  • Thanks MrGoatsnake, we're glad you like the look of the game.

    Yes it's all our own original artwork, and we'd like to keep the game as unique as possible. So I don't think we'd be able to license the images.

    We often find it difficult to create good art as well. Our team artist is only able to work part time for us. So it often seems to take forever to get things done For example, we currently have several games ready to go, but we don't have images that are good enough to allow us to release them. So we're often in the same position as you.

    We'd like to offer something back to the community though. So we'll see if we can put some different food images together, and post them for free.

    Hope that helps

  • PoP! is a magical and wondrous food factory, full of mouth-watering and deliciously delightful treats. And it's now available (for free) on WP8 & Win 8:

    Help professor Gumdrop to collect all of the scrumptious foods on offer! And create new and exciting foods, such as Candy Apple Cream Pie, Tripleberry Sundae, or even Chocolate Fudgleberry Cake. But don't play if you're on a diet... The excitement may just be too much to handle!

    Pop as many bubbles as you can, to release the tasty food inside. Drop the food into the blitz-o-matic 5000, to create fantastic new food combinations. Score bonus points by popping the same food type, or colour 3, 4 or 5 times in a row! And watch out for the special bonus items displayed in the bonus box!

  • Cool looking game spongehammer! The game play look challenging, and I really like the futuristic style of the display! Just given it a thumbs up on Steam.

    Good luck, I hope to give it a try soon

  • Good luck with the greenlight, just cast my yes vote!

  • Great art style, great animation, I'm really looking forward to playing this

  • 68tm, I just meant that we used a gif to display the run cycle in this thread. In the game though, we create animations by using a bunch of png's as frames in a sprite.

  • Looking very cool, the graphics and sounds are superb. And it's even more fun now you can collect the gold too!

    Keep up the great work, I'm really looking forward to playing the finished game.

  • 68tm, the run cycle above is a GIF, but the rest of the images are PNG.

    lolpaca, thanks glad you like it! We hope to have a playable demo for you to try soon, so stay tuned

  • Nice work iceangel, I really like the game's cool blocky art style! I'm gonna give it a try right now

  • Hey Rhindon,

    Yep Pascal has done a really good job with those images, although we shouldn't forget that you're the one that made it all come to life

    I'll certainly check out more of his work, thanks for the tip
