Well, I am now fully back from the Holidays and ready to get back to my normal Smiling Cat work schedule. EARL’s Warehouse has still managed to progress over the holidays, and it is now to the point of just needing a couple more animations in order to be complete.
This past weekend, EARL’s Warehouse was available for demo at the COGG meetup. It was the first time EARL’s Warehouse was playable in a public forum, and much fun was to be had by all. By far, everyone’s favorite feature seems to be the cannons that advance your progress by wreaking some form of destruction upon the puzzle.
Once the game is complete, I will be releasing it for open Beta on Kongregate. I am still hoping to make that happen by the end of the month. From there, the game will be tweaked based on player feedback, and an official 1.0 release will be made.
