Hi Caromblers! This is my (Frank) first time writing a Steam Announcement, so please be gentle ;).
It's been a month now since I joined the team to work on Caromble!. I've mostly been focusing my attention to get our Twitter and Facebook a little more active with more frequent posts and gifs. I'm also looking at other social media platforms to get the word out to people about Caromble!. It would be very helpful to hear what you, our players, are most active on and would like to hear about Caromble!?
In the meantime Pascal has been working hard on level 3 of Chapter 4. We're happy to say that level 3 is now gameplay complete! That means the biggest part of the level is done, what remains is dressing it up nicely and tweaking it to get the right feel. Check some of the level in the screenshot below!
Thomas D has been fixing bugs (and also creating a funny one that you can see in action at the bottom of this post) and made some preliminary sketches of a new screen to showcase your score and time at the end of each level. We're looking at a nice way of showing your score/time and compare it to your (Steam) friends and a global leaderboard.
Raymond is working on a new skill level that's going to be added to the game with the upcoming release of Chapter 4. It's almost at a playable state, so we're going to have some internal playtesting for it soon. Obviously that also means it's a showdown between the team members to settle who's at the top of the leaderboard. Bring it on guys!
Hope everybody had a great year and played wonderful games! We'll be back in the new year, aka next week, with more updates on Caromble!.
Happy New Year from the Caromble! team!
