Sneak 2 - coming soon to a flash player near you

viralplatipuss · 04-11-2008, 12:43 AM

Just wanted to give all the fans of Sneak a heads-up about the development of Sneak 2.

I have been working my socks off for the past few weeks putting the engine together and slowly developing the brand-spanking-new Sneak 2 (that rhymed by the way).

It's going to be similar to Sneak, obviously as the game concept will remain the same but the level creator will be a lot more sophisticated in Sneak 2 and allow for more customisation of the level than before.

I don't want to go crazy with new features in Sneak 2 as I want to find a good compromise between 'lots of features' and 'easy to use'.

The good news is there will be a new system in place after creating a level that will give you a direct link you can post anywhere on the web that will load up Sneak 2 and go straight to your level. None of this 'Go to sneak and play level 359693488' rubbish!

Feel free to suggest features if you want to, but as I said I still want a factor of 'simplicity' about the game so I may choose not to listen to all/any of them. :P

All the other details on new features and the game itself you can find out when you play it.

As far as release dates are concerned, I really can't say other than 'soon'. And I use that word in a very general sense meaning as soon as a week or so, to anyway as far as 2 months. So don't expect the game to come out tomorrow. Otherwise I'll have to rush it and we'll end up with a rubbish game.

I may be looking for beta testers to have a play on the game before I release it and find/report any errors. But I'll let you know more about that when it gets closer to becoming a playable game.

Sorry for the long post, if you read it all then you probably have too much time on your hands.

Drop any queries into this thread if you have 'em.

Hello viralplatipuss,

Great, I am playing Sneak One right now because I wanted to know more about the Sneak game before giving any comments and suggestions. Wait for my response.

You can't be playing Sneak 1 as it no longer exists on the site. You're probably playing the small singleplayer version I released for promotion.

Sounds awesome, I'd love to beta test. Hope you do end up looking for some.

This game better be greater than the original version. If not, I'm throwing my computer away, ending my life, and will repeatedly be cutting my wrists until hell comes.

What a statement.

GameChat · 04-12-2008, 04:43 AM

A statement that has a chance of coming true. Btw, Viral add multiplayer to it.

Junkeeper · 04-12-2008, 11:45 AM

Can't wait for its release.

sugoi !!

Count me in for beta testing.

viralplatipuss · 04-13-2008, 11:26 PM

How exactly can I add multiplayer.

We don't have the server support for real-time. The closest to multiplayer we can get is being able to play each others levels!

This is cool. I nearly forgot all about Sneak... Now I can't wait until you finish. Obviously I see you've finally started this, lol. Looks like you're pretty well into making it to me though. I'll do some beta testing if you want me to.
