Resources Galore

Unless you’re a multi-talented robot from the future or work in a team, there comes a point in Indie Development where you’re forced to upgrade your mediocre graphics and that hit you made on the kazoo into something a little more .. Badass! If you have a job, you could spend your next paycheck on a freelancer who will most likely give you some stunning assets [...]

You might be wondering whats up with TopNotched and the lack of website updates, trust us, the lack of updates means nothing, we’ve been super busy! Programming, testing, feeding kids, changing diapers, programming, sleeping … making kids … programming, it never ends (at least for me)!

Whats new? The website got a makeover, it’s been a whole year since TopNotched started game development, and I’m going to be a Father Again! Number 4 is due within 2 weeks (all boys)!
What else? Recently started on a new project “Fight of Heart” Adventure Shooter in 2.5D! The game is coming together fairly quick, its looking good, and its FUN! Hopefully it will be our big break!

Animated Pixel Art!
It wouldn’t be right announcing a new team member without showing off some of their work. Used in one of his personal game projects, The Longevity Gene, this animation to the left is just a small sample of Mark’s amazing retro skills.

Crunching Numbers

Posted by Aaron Scovel on January 18th, 2011

Anyone following me knows I took the holidays off, but was it a good idea? A break was definitely good, two months off, ehh not so good. I do have a solid excuse though, and giggle away, but I truly believe Microsoft’s Kinect is highly addictive. So Addictive, I now have an injured knee from the non stop excitement and 20 lbs of weight loss. Pros, I feel healthier. :-)

Good News? I’m back! Yesterday I went through my lengthy code and refreshed my head and today I’m back to crunching numbers! Back and feeling stronger then ever. I came up with a few more ideas for the game to add extra entertainment value and will be incorporating them very soon!

Keep checking project SQWERT for updates.
