[It's going to happen! :D]

What platform it will cover? Will it be for smartphones?

 

It will be for PC/Mac/Linux first... and a mobile version if possible (I don't know if I will need to change the game for this... I think it will be a little complex for smartphones...)
So, the mobile version isn't decided if will be the same game or a little spin only to cover mobiles too...

and after the release, I will need some time to create a build for Consoles too. (the publisher said they would help me on the console version!)

 

and really thanks to come here <3

[It's going to happen! :D]

yes

we are closing the deal... but I'm already working on the Game... but it doesn't have a release date yet

[New Game Story (spoiler alert)]

Hello friends

I  wrote a new story for the full version of the game! I love games with story, and for sure, we need to have a cool one!

Really, if you want to help me, go on and read. But if you don't want to spoil your game experience when the game get released, don't open the spoiler below! 

I knew you would open it... you monster!
 

Intro

The Cubers live on a 'planet' called CES-7 where they live a long and happy life... but something weird always happens when they’re about to die… they disappear forever.

(Intro scene: Cubers playing around and some of them doing dangerous activities which result on disappearing when they're about to die)
 

Story

The Cubers get teleported to a place where they never saw before and they get to know C.L.E.O.

(Scene if possible: CLEO / Labs Introduction)

(To do: Why the Cubers get teleported there, and how they get out of there… not the truth, obviously.)

 

Inside the Labs, the Cubers are going to get tested in a lot of rooms and they will get through challenges helping or not the other Cubers get to the end.

 

While playing, a lot of wrong things will happen, like C.L.E.O. spawning a different character instead of a Cuber, putting the wrong music, asking weird things which an A.I. shouldn’t ask, telling secret things and even helping the Cubers get through the challenges.

 

C.L.E.O. will be always guiding the Cubers and trying to create an enjoyable atmosphere, telling jokes and trolling the Cubers.

 

In the last room, they will meet C.L.E.O. (Cubers Life Experiment Owner), which is a real Cuber but he tells the truth: all the Cubers there are robots, A.I.’s programmed to have a normal life, with implanted memories of their growth and learning. They have a gadget which knows when they’re in trouble or almost certain to die, to teleport them to the Labs so we can do the experiment with an A.I. which had an organic evolution.

 

This way the other Cubers don’t know they’re robots and they keep living their 'happy' life without have to worry about death because they are programmed to forget about the person disappearance, leaving only the good memories with them.

 

Then you realize that all their existence is an experiment. With the end of the experiment, C.L.E.O. let you choose if they want to continue their normal life or they want to tell everyone (Cubers out of the labs) about the truth. (Each choice has a different ending)

(To Do: I don't know about a boss battle or something to end yet, maybe yes or no, only if I find a cool way to do it.)

 

Finale 01 ("good"): The player choose to live a normal life;

They’re teleported back to their friends / family, but now, instead of dying they will survive every disaster which was going to happen to them, and they keep living their very long life. (go to outro)

 

Finale 02 ("bad"): The player choose to tell everyone about the truth;

They’re teleported back to their friends / family, but now, an image of a TV showing a footage of the labs with C.L.E.O. telling the truth to all Cubers.

This truth makes all the Cubers crazy, some of them start to riot and trash everything, another start to check if they really are a robot, etc… (go to outro)

 

Outro

The labs are getting far and far, and you start to see the city, it gets far away until you start to see the space, where the little planet are getting far and far until you see a bigger real planet (like earth) very close to the Cubers planet. This ends with a voice speaking:

 

Ending01:

"(Radio Static) SP461: - Permission to enter the Seventh Cubers Experiment Spaceship to bring necessary provisions”

“(Clear Sound) CES-7: - Permission conceded.”

Ending02:

“(Radio Static) SP461: - Permission to enter the Seventh Cubers Experiment Spaceship to bring necessary provisions”

“(Clear Sound) CES-7: - Permission denied. It’s over. Let’s go back to TBD.”

 

Abbreviations:

CES-7      : Seventh Cubers Experiment Spaceship / Cubers Experiment Spaceship n° 7

CLEO       : Cubers Life Experiment Owner

SP461     : Spaceship 461

TBD : To be defined (the real planet name)

 

If you read everything, please, give me your word about it below <3 

 

Really thanks your time!

[It's going to happen! :D]

update...

I had to work a few more months because the publisher didn't make a deal with me yet...

So I only started working on the game on late August / early September...

[The Restart #1 - DevLog]

After two weeks working on the new project, I’m starting to get used to programming again, but now the things need to be done right! I’m not making a game jam project anymore...

One of the things that really bothered me on the game jam version were the collisions, in 7 days you don’t have enough time to polish D:

 

 

 

it’s not 100% yet, but at least now I have a good 2D collision system for all the game

---

 

 

 

^ seems that Hulk Hogan went to a 3D movie :~

now the items will make sense in the game, each of them will have a special effect / power, it will be a extra work, but worth it.

---

 

While working on the project again, I got excited about it and I started to engage on the social medias again, I created a Forum and I never had used the Reddit, I tried it and I found a lot of friendly developers there, and some of then are really willing to help  #gamedev

 

... streams never get old ...

 

... even if I did it wearing my pajamas :D, haha

---

 

The things are going slower then I expected, but as a fellow procrastinator, I’m happy with the little results. 
The game will have more life now, with a cool story, a semi-open world, etc...

I hope that you guys like the final result... will be a while until there

---

 

Thanks for reading until here <3 I know it’s very shallow now, but I will improve it with the time, I promise! 

Sorry for the bad English and a special thanks for the Headup Games, you guys rock!

[Hello! :D]

Hey guys! My name is Rodolfo, the developer of Try. Die. Repeat.

I would like to share whats happened until we get here first! 

At August of 2015, the forum GameDev.net did a Game Jam with the theme "Death is usefull", it had a good prize of $1k for the first place, and what do you think? I won the first place!

After that, I lot of people played the game, a bunch of videos on Youtube, I was so happy with it! but at the time, I was not able to keep working at the project and make a bigger and better version, I had a lot of bills to pay and I was working at 2 jobs (one part time in a game development company and as a web developer for companies at my city). At the same time, I started to talk with a Indie Publisher and they got really interested on the game idea, but at first they didn't had money to invest on it... we made some agreements and that's it! The game is going to happen now!  
I think that's it

See you!
