Hi,
I'd like to talk about my latest game: Greedy Snakes 4k. It's a game based on the classic snake game where you have to eat eggs or something else (don't remember exactly the object). In the classic, each time you eat an egg the snake's tail grows, which increases the game difficulty. Also, hitting your own body or an obstacle causes death. In my my game, which is a variation of the classic gameplay, I wanted to offer a different challenge. You still eat eggs but you're n...

Hey, I'm going to enter the Java4K contest this year. This is going to be my first participation. If you don't already know the contest I suggest you to consult and play a a lot of very cool games at java4k.com. It's truly amazing what can be done in a game with only 4kb (4096 bytes) of size! Believe me, I browsed all the games for this year and past years and I was simply stunned by the quality, playability and fun factor of a lot of them. But, yes there's a but, don't expect full fledg...

Hi,
this is just a quick update on what's going on with Incredibuilder. I'm completing the development of the next version. It's a been a long time since the last one but the next version is coming soon. The swap tool and free tool were put on hold because they cause significant gameplay design issues. I might reconsider them later though if I find good solution to fix the issues.
Also, expect new levels and a redesigned double knife tool for a much better ...

Hi all,
the last weeks or last month have been really busy for me. My day job prevented me to progress on my game. Before this I had developed a new tool called the swap tool. It allowed to swap 2 blocks and was supposed to be used with hammer to remove used blocks. Well, this tool may seems fun but the design of levels for it is more difficult than planned. And the fact of switching tools with space bar doesn't fit very well the hand position in my opinion.

Hello,
I took some time to rest lately and that's why a new Incredibuilder took more time to deliver. Version 0.52 is a small release since it contains only changes to the toutorials. I removed the confusions about how to play and concerning the time versus money modes. The game mode selection screen also contains a description of each game mode. Finally, I did a couple of bug fixes.
I'm now working on enhancing the graphics to make them more unique/origina...

Hello,
here are the key highlights in version 0.51:
- introduction of game modes: time mode (already exists), money mode and vs computer (not available yet)
- money game mode: instead of playing against time you play against a limited budget. You have all the time you want to build your construction but each piece costs money. Each new piece stays at the top until you press S, down arrow or click DROP. The tutorial texts were adjusted to this new game mode.

Hi,
I've been busy with the publication of Incredibuilder videos. I'm trying to get more traffic on my site and therefore more Incredibuilder players then more feedback.
Version 0.49.5 contains the following changes:
- the tutorials were rebuilt because multiple players had a kind of bad impression of the game. After playing them they thought the game was too easy. Try these new tutorials and tell me what you think.
