That's all :)

So we've released The Blind Swordsman on April 1st.

While the idea was originally an April Fools prank like "You play as a blind swordsman and it's a black screen and you can't do anything ha! ha! ha!", we decided to push the idea much further and make it into an actual game.

We worked hard on creating a unique experience and obviously some people really hated the idea haha but some really loved it.  In any case, the people saying it's just an april fools prank are lying and what's even funnier are people trolling and saying things like "woah the bears on level 5 are really hard" or whatever, oblivious to the fact that there ARE further levels and they are the fool lol

So yeah, The Blind Swordsman is a fully playable game where you must listen carefully where the enemies are and listen to their attack patterns to defeat them, best played with headphones on for a better sound placement effect. I worked on a system where each sound is actually 4 sounds, a front close sound, a front far sound, a back close sound and a back far sound.  Each with their own particular effect to sound close, far, in front and behind you (with headphones).

The way to play the game properly as a blind swordsman is to start the battle on the defensive to determine the enemy's pattern and movements. Rashly attacking enemies is a sure way to die.  You can parry attacks by pressing the parry button right before the attack lands, the enemies always have a grunt sound before the attacks land like eeeeeYAH, ooooooHA, hmmmmpHAA, etc.  That is your cue to parry.  Now each enemy has an opening when you can attack and defeat them, THAT you must find!

There are 10 levels, each with its own kind of enemy or group of enemies. It's all doable but clearly a difficult game. We hope you give it a shot now that there are medals to be earned and that you know it's all possible to beat.  We had fun working on the game and crunched really hard to get it done by April Fools, we still decided to release it on April Fools, just for the fact that it's a unique, almost joke-like, concept.  But we put our whole into it and made it more than a prank.

We hope you enjoyed it and if you didn't, we hope you'll give it another go :)

Thanks to everyone who gave us genuinely good feedback about the game and how to make it better, v1.2 is currently out and contains a bunch of fixes, medals, highscores, etc.  Working on some more fixes and tweaks as well.

Cheers!

Hey guys! There's a lot of new updates on StoryShift! New chapters and new stories!  Here's the breakdown!

We now have a new story called "Expedition Z" by James Renner, whose book "The Man From Primrose Lane" has been acquired by Warner Bros to be made into a movie with Bradley Cooper.

Twenty years after the outbreak, two young cadets are sent on a mission west, to document survivors. A post-apocalyptic Lewis and Clark, in a country destroyed by zombies.

We also have a new story called "Emerald" by Silverpetal, a Newgrounds writer. She's the most recent writer to join StoryShift. Emerald is a a cool and unique story so check it out as well and go vote on the current decision!

It has been four decades since the Company was brought down, an organization that used volunteers to create a people that are called demons. One day our hero is contacted by them, and a struggle to find out who runs it and what they want begins.

A lot of the stories are now at chapter 2 and still in their voting period so check them out.  One of our few comics, "Subject 442" by SickDeathFiend, just got a new chapter so you should definitly check that one!

Let me know in the comments if you'd like more frequent updates on here.  Also I'm curious, are you guys following stories in StoryShift? What do you think of this project?  We sure do love it.

Hey guys! The first voting wave in StoryShift was a great success and concluded yesterday! So thanks to everyone who participated.  The voted decisions will be revealed shortly, you can subscribe to the stories to be notified of their updates, the decision reveals and the new chapters.

While this is happenning, you can still vote on "Chicago Duo", which has over a day left to vote.

You can also check our 2 new stories:

"Fire And Feathers" by K. N. Salustro You’re the hero! Possibly… It’s either you or Miranda. Can you prove to the Elders that YOU are the true Child of the Prophecy, and that you’re worthy of all the power and glory that comes with the role?

"Traveler in Exile" by Dale Harisson A young boy finds himself abandoned in a strange land, with no memories of who he is or where he came from. As he struggles to find a new life, can he unlock the mystery of his past?

Let us know in the comments below what you think of StoryShift!

Hey guys!

Here at Evil-Dog Productions, we mostly make games and sometimes small apps.  But sometimes (just this one time :P), we also work on big secret projects for a long time until they eventually come out.   The Solo-DX is such a project.

We've worked for a while in collaboration with leading Quebec-based company Sinexus who gave us the task of building this app from the ground up.  They are partnered with other companies involved in the field of dentistry and handled the creation of the 2D and 3D content of the app. The Solo-Dx will allow dentists to quickly and interactively show their patients what problems they have and the solutions proposed.

If you know some dentists or people in the field, you can share this with them and they can get a quote for the available products, including the awesome Solo-DX.

Now, back to games! :D Next update: Our new project, StoryShift, comes out on wednesday if all goes well!  Stay put.

Hey guys!

I'm looking for writers and comic artists for phase 2 of StoryShift, my community driven storytelling platform where you make a chapter of a story with a choice at the end, then people vote on what should happen next and you make the next chapter based on that community vote and so on. There's potential revenues involved so if you're interested or if you know someone who would be, proceed to the appropriate forum post for more info :)

For writers http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1359408

For comic artists http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1359409

Cheers!

StoryShift, our community-driven story telling platform is almost ready and should launch in a few weeks once we go through the approval process on the various platforms we're putting it on (iOS, android, amazon, Flash).

Most writers and artists involved are from Newgrounds and I'll be recruiting more talented and dedicated writers and comic artists to add more stories.

Make sure you like our StoryShift page to stay updated and join the launch event!  It's gonna be on Newgrounds too!
