Wizorb coming to Mac and Linux December 19th!
Our first title Wizorb, which was previously released for Xbox 360 and PC, is now coming to Mac and Linux next Monday! Mark December 19th in your calendar.
The Mac version will be released on the Mac App Store and GamersGate. While the Linux version will be distributed by Desura and Gameolith. If have purchased the PC version on one of those platforms, you will be able to download the other platform for free!
Great news!
Awesome news I should say :]
So, how did you do the port? By yourself? From scratch? By using some existing frameworks?
(yeah I’m too curious)
Thanks for the effort!
Hey Guillaume, thanks for the support!
We did the port using MonoGame. I read one of your blog post about Blocks That Matter and believe you had looked into it but opted for a java port.
Some pieces we’re missing to port our game but it sure beat recoding the whole renderer.
So a lot of credit needs to go to the MonoGame team!
Thanks for the info !
Nice !
And yes I experimented a little bit with MonoGame.
I obtained some result very quickly, but I don’t know why, the performances were not so good with our 720p native displaying (and some large levels).
Maybe I should have investigated more instead of switching to Java :/
I will have some question, could I email you? My email is guillaume(at)swingswingsubmarine(dot)com
Thanks again for this great news guys!
Wonderful! You could submit your game for a future Humble Bundle. That would be a great window for Tribute.
thanks for share. thumbs up! sven
