Whenever I'm developing a game I always get slightly paranoid when a game in the same genre is released, no one wants to write a game only to have something better pipping you at the post.
So I was a bit worried when I read about
Fire and Ice ( And not the Amiga game of the same name ).
The worry wasn't removed when on loading it up it looked great, has slopes ( The icing on the Flash platformer cake ) and even uses a similar Star Wars wipe that we've got in place ( Argh ). On playing it through I was relieved to find it's aimed at a much different audience than our platformer. Man that's a hard game.
Let's just hope Fancy Pants II doesn't come out the same week as "NDA covered project".
Squize.
