Love the use of gravity to throw the ball. I know I'll suck at it, but I think the family will have a ton of fun with it. With the team all using xbox controllers, I wonder what cool features will be implemented when you use the Amico controller? 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atari400Veteran #27932 Posted February 19 Hi Tommy, Apologies if this has been asked before, but I wondered if it will be possible to select player colour in Amico games? I really like the idea of everyone in the household having their own dedicated colour (much like if we play Cluedo or Monopoly we all have our set characters we always play). If not I think that would be a great feature. Or perhaps that's just the geek in me!! Thanks! 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Intellivision Master #27936 Posted February 19 Tommy, You said all games on Amico have a single player mode. But in the future will there be some games that are multiplayer only? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So will this game be a real exclusive or just have an amico edition. People are getting confused, even the devs admit there is confusion as I suspect they may have the game as a PC game "Neon Shifter"??. Im hoping amico will have more games in a truly wall offed environment and truly 100% exclusive as IMHO it will help greatly enhance the interest and sell-ability of the system if they do. (but perhaps IE did take over funding and this is an true exclusive?? if so that would be great.) Edited February 19 by bigdaddygamestudio 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Tommy Tallarico #27940 Posted February 19 1 hour ago, vongruetz said: You need to get these guys some Amico controllers ASAP!! Haha! True! They haven't begun the optimization yet and they didn't have 4 controllers but we wanted to show 4 players (and the mobile app wasn't optimized for this game yet). I'm sure there will be a faction of people who will scream bloody murder because they were playing the build off a PC. But as they clearly stated in the video, they haven't started optimizing it for Amico yet... they also mentioned that it's a work in progress. There will be certain things to do "on screen" as well... but we just wanted to highlight the initial basic 4 player super fun and easy gameplay at this point. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here is what Tommy has said in the YouTube comments: Quote Almost every game ever made uses a PC hooked up to a development kit to create it. They did not have access to 4 Amico controllers and the implementation on the mobile app has not been optimized so they played it directly from the PC instead. Which makes sense to me; lots of console games are tested on a PC first of all. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our version is exclusive and different from Neon Shifter. 6 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OK, but if they are just different versions and/or control schemes of the same basic game, I think you guys may be opening yourself up to some blowback. Just my 2 cents. I may be wrong, wouldnt be the first time :). I just think true exclusive will be the ones that really move the system like say EWJ4, or baseball or other 100% exclusives.

At this point I don't really care how a gamer wants to interpret the word "exclusive" for a video game console. We've made our definition very clear and the devs even confirm it in the video. Exclusive means we are not doing direct ports (like most companies do). It's not really a big issue unless someone wants to try and make it one.... which as we're all aware... they will no matter what.

Intellivision Master #27946 Posted February 19 Tommy, Will the physical games/digital games show how many can play? Such as this game is for 2 players only. Or this game is multiplayer only. Also, will there be any games that are just single player? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I noticed this mode is called Voyage, makes me think the will be a vertical classic mode. 👍😀 Tommy, not sure if you saw my question above 👍😀 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
