Plunderland is our new game!
Plunderland is one of the projects we've been keeping a little bit secret from all of you, but today we're announcing it for iPhone. Enjoy the teaser trailer, it's short and sweet.
Recognise that guitar riff at the end? More information coming soon.
WIP Space Illustration
I thought maybe it was a little much showing this illustration so early in its development, but then I thought, why not. It's been so long since we've actually been able to share things with you we should make it up some how.
So, this is part one of some kind of space illustration I'm working on. Right now there's no ship and that car was just plain lame-sauce so I decided to draw over it.
Hello, Joe Danger!
Our friends at Hello games recently announced their XBLA, PSN and PC title "Joe Danger" for what looks to be an incredible game packed with style and oozing with fun.
I don't want to attempt to steal the lime-light on what Hello Games will say about it themselves, but consider this "Hello Games wants to make games that will put a stoopid grin on your face." and follow the link to read more.
High Speed Chase 2: Blast and Ramp
Blast creeps into the fuel systems in surrounding cars and explodes the engines from the inside out.
Ramp is a physical shift in the underlying mechanics of the car, sheets of ramped metal adjust over the bonnet and act as a ramp that send any vehicle that hits it fast enough straight into the air.
"Blast and Ramp" — Blast is crazy, cars everywhere blocking the road. Use Blast in combination with ramp to keep moving and rack up some serious highscores.
Just 2 more of the 13 power-ups coming in High Speed Chase 2.
Look forward to playing with Blast and Ramp in the upcoming High Speed Chase 2 web game here on JohnnyTwoShoes and in the upcoming 2.5 iPhone update.
High Speed Chase 2: Boost and Repel
Boost is your classic awesome power-up that injects a wealth of Nitros oxide into the fuel powering the engine. It makes the pistons work overtime which, in turn, means your wheels refuse let the tarmac get in the way of their spinning.
Repel eludes surrounding drivers into thinking you're an undercover police car, they head into alternate lanes to make way for your special mission.
"Boost and Repel" together are an unstoppable force. Without anything in your way boost will send you upwards of 200mph. Just enough to scrape that hard to get medal? Just hope those winding roads don't stop you first.
We're 6 out of 13 through in the series of power-ups you'll find in High Speed Chase 2. More tomorrow!
Look forward to playing with Boost and Repel in the upcoming High Speed Chase 2 web game here on JohnnyTwoShoes and in the upcoming 2.5 iPhone update.
High Speed Chase 2: Springs and Wings
Spring is a power-up designed to launch your car into the air from anywhere, use it to jump over cars, avoid head on collisions or to start a chain of bunny jumps across traffic.
Wings are a special kind of power-up that trigger the wings built into your gadget packed sports car, you've got to be mad to release them on the road but hit a jump and they'll keep you gliding until the power-up runs out hopefully landing squarely on your target car.
"Springs and Wings" — It's about getting these two amazing power-ups at the same time and using them in combination to get in the air from anywhere.
Just 2 of the 13 power-ups coming in High Speed Chase 2.
Look forward to playing with Springs and Wings in the upcoming High Speed Chase 2 web game here on JohnnyTwoShoes and in the upcoming 2.5 iPhone update.

HSC2: Rhino Power-Up
Introducing RHINO, the power-up you saw in that forum picture. It makes your car coated in armour plating and actually gives you more mass/weight to push through traffic. It's really fun through on-coming traffic.
We'll be introducing more power-ups over the next few days, this is 1 of 13
Notes Preview
This evening I made some good progress on the notes feature, autocomplete feature is in and working. There's a lot to do still before it hits the public site but you can see the progress we're making.
Weapon Blueprints Found
We'll probably get shutdown by the department of defense, but I found these blueprints and I'm trying to work out what they're for. It says headlamp machine guns. I might find some more over the next few days, until then let's try and work out how we could use these?
