Beatnik Games

We have recently been sent some art from a real Ninja Robot fan, Leo and his girlfriend. This is no ordinary art.

…the world must be shown.

LEO, BEATNIK SALUTES YOU!

As for us here at Beatnik, we are working hard to impress you with our next game. TBA.

We’ve been along to sit in the audience for a few of the London Unity3D User Group meetings now and were very excited by the informative talks and great turn out. It’s a true testament to the forward thinking and supportive community that has blossomed around this wonderful tech.

So it really is a great pleasure to be invited to talk at the event this Thursday 22nd. It’ll mostly cover our experiences of Unity over the past couple of years, with a few tips and tricks, as well as demoing some of our work.

If you can make it, we look forward to seeing you there!

We were asked to feature on indiePubgames.com

We’re busy working on some cool new games for some interesting people and platforms. Hopefully we’ll announce some of them by the end of August. Until then, know that we’re still giving Plain Sight a little more love with some updates to come!

Crikey! Updates and now a sale!

There really is no better time to grab yourself a copy of Plain Sight than RIGHT NOW!

Hey folks!

We are back from working on Plain Sight, making it the perfect gameplay experience. Here’s what we’ve been up to!

Latest Update Details:

1. Intergrated Steam works so you can join a friends game directly and see how well, or bad, they are playing
2. Numerous bug fixes
3. Clearer UI elements showing you when you can buy Persistent Perks
4. Everyone gets 100 stars to spend on Persistent Perks (YAY!)
5. Added data collection to the purchase server so we can collect metrics about how users collect and use stars
6. Everyone will have a minimum of 30 points to upgrade their Robot Perks at the start of every round
7. Doubled the length of Shields
8. And one small but significant tweak – Minimum detonation Energy! You must always get one energy point larger than your previous detonation, forcing you to constantly grow bigger and bigger after each suicide. For every time you are killed, this minimum detonation energy drops by one

Get on Steam and have a game or two. Friends over Teamspeak make it so much better.

But that’s not all, we want YOUR ideas to help us improve it. So get in touch!

Hello World!

We’re sorry we’ve been so quiet over the past few months. We had a bit of a rocky time internally (not to mention some server issues) but now we’re back better than ever! We’ve got some really exciting things all lined up, but for now all we can tell you is: we’ve been giving Plain Sight a lot more love to say sorry for being so quiet!

Even though we’ve been tinkering away at Plain Sight, we still need your input and feedback so we can make Plain Sight that much more awesome!  So please drop by our forums and say hello!  We love to hear from you! For any great ideas (or for generally making us laugh) we’ll honor you by giving you a limited edition Plain Sight poster!

Love,

Beatnik Games
