Halloween Update Coming Soon:

QuotePromo video of the upcoming Halloween Update for Lion Pig. It includes 6 new levels (5 core and 1 bonus), and they are definitely the most challenging yet. There is also 2 new songs, a secondary control option in the D-pad classic style, an option to restart levels from the pause menu automatically and some other features and improvements to the game. And there is also a halloween costume for Lion Pig (not shown in the video).

I think you're in the right place, yes :smiley:

It looks great, I like the chunky pixel graphics and the little Lion Pig looks SO sweet!!

I've only played the first few levels up to 2.2 but liking it so far. There's a lot of variety from what I can see in your videos so looking forward to playing more.

For some reason no sound plays for me.. It may be my phone throwing its toys out the pram though as it works on my iPad so will keep trying. I'll try to get the device logs but if no-one else reports anything don't worry about it. I did try fiddling with the sound levels in the options menu to no avail. I would say that those sliders are really hard to touch on iPhone though.

That aside, the only minor suggestions I do have are to make the climbing onto wall animation a little faster, and have the level select focus on the page you got to. As I didn't remember that the last locked box was the bonus level, I played through the last 1.* level again when I restarted the game. It was only after a couple of times of that that I twigged that I needed to press the right arrow to move to the next page. If that makes sense?

Overall though, very impressed. I like story in my games but there's something to be said for these old school games that just get down to business from the off. It's a solid little platformer and looks great on iPhone. Also it's a lion pig. What's not to like? :grin:

Thanks man.

No other sound complaints and its been tested on most of the iStuff. :X Sound is a cool part of this game hehe.

With the coming halloween update, we have another control scheme set up, more of a classic dpad with action button no swiping. Some changes with water movement, you can now swim up.

7 new challenging levels, lion pig got all dressed up for halloween which wasn't shown in the video and some other tweaks.

As for your suggestions, both seem pretty valid. I'll see whats up. Halloween is coming up so fast trying to get this update out in time.

The story, we did have one but we just didn't get it in.

The idea was that he grew up playing other platformers and they could all jump. Being he had weak pig legs he couldn't really be as cool as the others.

So it was gonna be spread out at each level with some little flavor stuff and some images. Then at the end, you see he became a programmer and programmed the game.

Thanks for checking it out tho.

Edit: Oh and there is 1 emerald coin hidden in each set of levels. If you decide you want to search for them.

Ah, think I found one by accident when I fell to the bottom of a watery ditch. I wondered what that was all about, lol :cheesy:
