I’ll add more as I find ’em!
Rock Paper Shotgun winner announcement
Had a fantastic time at the Expo and met a lot of great indie supporters!
First of all I want to extend my gratitude to David Hayward, the organiser of the Indie Arcade- He kept everything running smooth as clockwork and the diversity of the games present was fantastic- there was really something for everyone!
And of course thanks to everyone at Rock Paper Shotgun for supporting the event and choosing Pineapple Smash Crew as the winner! It was great to meet everyone face to face after reading and enjoying RPS all these years!
Thanks to Syphus for letting me use his awesome tracks for the expo- see the post below for his details and album!
Thanks to the press and bloggers who stopped by and checked out the game!
Thanks to the great indie fans who came by and checked out the game, and everyone who’s tracked me down on twitter, youtube, facebook and the blog. It was great to meet some of you at the show!
And finally thanks to my awesome girlfriend who kept me company and showed everyone some awesome moves on the dancefloor in just dance 😀
I’m over the moon to announce that Pineapple Smash Crew received the RPS game of the indie arcade award! Mind= blown right now 🙂
I’m heading out right now but there’s many people I want to thank and mention, so look out for an update this evening!
Also, I know many people have been frustrated about the lack of information about availability of the game, I’m really sorry about that. PSC still has a few months of development time left to really make it shine and take on board the fantastic feedback from the Eurogamer Expo. Rest assured I’m working hard to get it into gamers hands!
I’ve had a bunch of people interested in the Music of PSC- It was provided by a fantastic Chiptune artist who goes by the name of Syphus- check out his artist page here
His real name is Brendan Ratliff, and his music production company is called Echolevel – Check him out on Twitter, @echolevel
The tracks included in the Eurogamer version of PSC are but a few of the many awesome tunes to be found on his album pro.tect- available on bandcamp- check it out and buy a copy!
I finally got around to making an actual site page for Pineapple Smash Crew!
click here to take a look
loads of new screens and a new vid await!
Still alive!  slow on the updates right now because I’ve been working hard to get Pineapple Smash Crew ready for it’s Eurogamer Indie Arcade debut! after I’ve sent them the expo version I should be getting a new vid up with all the latest features and some new screens 🙂
