SpinDrift production videos (new video every friday)

Here's one of our weekly production videos for our work in progress, SpinDrift (posted every friday until project completion). Feel free to let us know what seems lame and what looks interesting Thanks for watching!

John D. Bell, President, Golden Beast Studios


Enjoy!

Wow. You did this with Game maker? People like you impress me on how far you can push game maker. I'll play it when it comes out.

The exact way that the game is played was a little confusing. I really couldn't tell much through the video. But, those graphics and effects are AMAZING

This game will be featured, if any mods figure out how it works. looks way to confusing

Check it out! Mark Overmars has reviewed a game by Golden Beast Studio. Its on their site.

$30 for Bio-Drone!!! That's hardcore. I would definitly need a demo before I payed that much for a GameMaker game.

Is it on yoyogames?

no, looks AMAZINg, but sorta confusing. could be good.

@js1210:
Our site is totally out of date (hence no presence of SpinDrift) we'll be overhauling it soon. We aren't taking any more pre-orders for Bio-Drone (again, the site is out of date) and Bio-Drone is going to be split into 3 episodes at $2 each, a far more resonable price than $30 lol (although we did get quite a few pre-orders).

@3d
The control scheme is devilishly simple (it's just the mouse and mouse buttons), although it does take a bit of skill to make some of the planned trick shots in the main pinball-esque part of the game.

@Dom4:
Thank you! We work really hard on our games!

@ Everyone:
Just to clarify, we will be posting a free demo on yoyogames (and any other site we can get it on) and sell the full game for $2 from our site (once the game is completed and the site is updated). Thanks for watching everyone! we could go into detail about the controls, but the game will be complete soon enough!!

Will a demo of Bio-Drone be posted too?

Yes, we will have a demo for Bio-Drone, although Bio-Drone is a "mature" title, so we're not sure how far we can take it on yoyo or other comperable sites. But we'll at least have a "uncensored" version of the demo on our site (yes, it's that bad lol). We'll be showing a few videos in the next week or so for Bio-Drone We're currently getting the site up to date, so bear with us!

Regards,
John

We quickly updated the site, so now it accurately reflects the current state of what's going on with us lol.

Thanks for the comments everyone!

John,

Alright, "JOHN" you can just make some nickname up, we're not all official here and such, but if you want to. If have a question, what do you use to record your game, im looking to make a video of my WIP 3d game, but have hypercam, any others?

YAY, blood and guts

@3d
We use ScreenVirtuoso using the Microsoft video 1 compressor with the monitor set to the same resolution as the game. Let me know when you have a video up

We've been scrambling to the get a video up, but the game is kinda pulled apart right now Here's a quick screenshot, we'll get a video out as soon as we can!

I had another pic posted, it was a bit too large, plus this one is more up to date

Wow.

For some reason I can only record in 16 bit color, so the video makes the game look a little weird Check out the last screenshot posted to get a more accurate depiction of what the game looks like

Awesome.

Ditto.

Wow this game looks amazing. I cant wait to try it out. Great work for GM!

The main "pinball" type game has been radically changed to accomidate the new movement system. It hardly resembles pinball at all now lol. It set us back a few days, but the game is better for it. We ought to be in Beta by the end of next week! The way the music syncs up with the end credit was totally unitentional lol.

Looks much more understandable now I can't get over how awesome those graphics are.

Thank you! The old movement system was closer to pinball, but it just wasn't very easy to control. So now what happens is that the pinball guy just "charges up" until he turns purple, and then the player can click anywhere and he'll go that direction. Thanks again for watching!
