IndieGameVideos.com launched
I am happy to announce the launch of my new website IndieGameVideos.com.
As the name suggests, it`s a portal for indiegames, focussed on showcasing the games in the best possible way, including selfmade gameplay videos.
I had noticed that most websites dealing with small games don`t seem to pay much attention to the presentation.
The worst examples only throw masses of mini-thumbnails onto their visitors, without any kind of sorting.
I think IndieGameVideos is doing a better job there, offering proper screenshots, videos, demos and purchase options for every single game.
Take a look, I hope you enjoy browsing the sections.
Of course the first gameplay video I did is the one for H-Craft Championship.
It`s on Youtube, the videoquality is a bit better now than it was on the first H-Craft trailer.
Boonclaw.com is also up now, including Socol, a (free to play) flashgame I did with a former workmate.
I think it`s a quite cool game, rather meant for chillout sessions than stressed out play.
Have sound on should you try it (and you should;).
-Philipp

Prototype showcase, looking for sponsors
Well, we did not post much news lately, but that does not mean we have been lazy.
Some people already wondered what we are up to, here is part of the answer...prototyping.
Below you find links to two featurepages, each covering a game which might happen to become our next scifi racer.
The first one wields a city-styled environment, it`s about futuristic streetracing.
The second is about dirty scifi rally racing, pretty arcadey, with colorful settings.
Both are indirect successors to H-Craft, in that they will try to maintain and improve on the original`s feeling.
So that was the happy news, but we still have to get the financing done before any of these will come real.
The idea is to find one or more sponsors who would be interested in advertising with the games, we already have some nice features in mind for that purpose.
In return this would enable us to release the game for free.
We think that`s a great opportunity for players to get a great new racer, for sponsors to get very worthy advertising, and for us...to get it done.
As for now, have fun checking out the feature pages.
Possible sponsors or businesspartners are very welcome to get in touch with us by sending a mail to lossack@irrgheist.com .

Patch 1_2 for H-Craft Championship released
We recently finished works on patch 1_2 for H-Craft Championship, which contains some major updates.
First of all, H-Craft is now compatible with Matrox TripleHead2Go�, enabling gamers to experience H-Craft on 3 screens simultaneously.
Looks pretty awesome:
Linux users who experienced problems with sound will be happy to hear that the patch should fix this bug.
A random startcrash which occured on some systems also got adressed and should be history now.
A couple of smaller issues got fixed as well, please visit the Support Forum for the complete change list.
The patch is now available for the versions sold at Manifestogames:
Patch 1_2 Linux
Patch 1_2 Windows
Manifestogames also updated the H-Craft Demo.
Of course our own Demo page got updated as well.

end of May 2007.
