It’s another UpBot Goes Up screenshot! But now the game is using XNA 4 – which means it’s closer to being in a releasable state.
Here’s another iPod / iPhone / iPad game that me and a few other guys made at work.
It’s a sparkly, colourful physics-based puzzler. Simply tap the screen to drop coins from the top. Try to light the pins, capture the Bad Pennies, rescue Girl Coins, smash bricks, demolish things, and tons more stuff too.
It’s a game I’m truly proud of, so please give it a go!

Did I mention it’s only £0.59 / $0.99 / ¥115 / 0,79 € ?

Twitter Highlights
Coin Drop seems to have an ability to generate some imaginative comments on Twitter, so here are some of my faves.
@charltonbrooker (Charlie Brooker..!)
Arrgh. Coin Drop on the iPhone. Angry Birds crossed with Peggle. That’s like crossing crack cocaine with bubble wrap. SEND HELP.
Oh dear, I downloaded coin drop.
The dog is actually playing Coin Drop!! Might want to wipe the screen afterwards though.
Coin Drop has passed the ‘legs have gone numb on the toilet’ test #tmimonday
oh Coin Drop, you luscious bastard.
Screenshots
A pixel triptych that I did a while ago to commemorate an excellent holiday to Tokyo.
Trying to keep up the Screenshot Saturday thing! It’s just a mockup really, but the game does exist. I’m doing art, and Ricky Haggett / Kommander Klobb is doing code. The design just makes itself up as we go.
Well tomorrow is Christmas so I’m not gonna post stuff then.
I added a glow effect around the coloured tiles that the bots need to get too. Oh yeah!
Merry Christmas!
Thought I’d try and get into the habit of posting more on this here website, so I’ll try stealing Screenshot Saturday from Twitter.
Currently back working on UpBot Goes Up, hoping to finish it in January. So here’s a screenshot, even though it doesn’t really show anything new – all of the in-game stuff has been mostly done for a while.
Johnny Platform Saves Christmas! has been out for a year! To celebrate, the price has been dropped to 80 Microsoft Points.
Merry Christmas!
Trixie has clearly been working on her tan.
8 Bit Horse recently did a startingly detailed feature on Treasure Treasure and my previous games!
8 Bit Horse: Treasure Treasure
It was part of a whole week of Xbox Live Indie Games features so it’s naturally worth a look.
Do you spend every waking minute pondering how UpBot Goes Up came to be?
Do you crave to unravel the mysteries behind the game? Who thought of it, when, why, and what does DownBot do?
Look no further, ladies and gentlemen!
