]]> Following a temporary price reduction of Caster from 4.99 to .99 for the remainder of February, Caster has moved into the top 10 selling games in the Mac app store. If this trend keeps up, I’m tempted to put Lexov on hold and go back to working on multiplayer for Caster.

You can get it here for a buck!

In other news, I’ll soon be posting an update on Lexov about some of the physics optimizations I’ve been using.

Thanks!

Hey all!

We had about 50 orders for Caster t-shirts.  Since each shirt ships with an original hand drawn pencil sketch by yours truly, that means I did 50 of those as well.

Today I just finished the last of those and went ahead and scanned them all in and uploaded them for your viewing pleasure here:

http://www.casterthegame.com/caster_sketches/

I’ve submitted the t-shirt order and things are looking good.

It will still be a little while until the shirts are done, but I will let you all know once I’ve mailed them out.   Oh, and the shirts have a little something extra to make them true “Caster” shirts…. Any guesses what that might be?

Thanks!

]]> Sadly, many times game studios work on projects that are confidential and never see the light of day.

Thankfully this one is out!

Hidden Path Entertainment worked with Valve on this update.  I didn’t help much on this one, but am excited for it’s release nonetheless.
