GUYS THERE WAS A MCMEENAH COMPETITION WHAT HAPPENED

Asking that cause sadly, we didn't get ANY entries for the McMeenah Beta Tester competition which I honestly don't understand...?? So, in case any of you still wants to try I guess we'll do it again.

The thing you win: You can play a fully completed version of McMeenah a couple of weeks before the official release which is wow wow incredible sweet loot

How to win the thing: Simply upload your higher StarShip Shooters V1.1 Hi-Score, a game where you can find scrolling around on our tumblr or simply downloading it in this link right here.

Time limit to win the thing: Since we're so close to releasing, I guess there's NO TIME LIMIT this time. Just keep the hi-scores coming and we'll contact the THREE best ones when the Beta is ready.

STARSHIP SHOOTERS FIX 1.1 AND MCMEENAH BETA COMPETITION

Some announcements!! As you can read in the title, Starship Shooters has been reviewed by a couple of people and we've fixed some bugs and enhanced this and that. The changelog can be found in the Read me, but it essentially features little change in gameplay.

DOWNLOAD LINK FOR STARSHIP SHOOTERS 1.1

And as to McMeenah, we won't release it until it's been thoroughly beta tested so here's it: we'll be accepting sumbissions of your best scores for Starship Shooters v1.1 until May 11th. There will be three winners, who we'll contact when the game is finished so they can beta test it before we release it, that is, you'll get to play before it's released. Have fun trying this challenge!! We'll open submissions at once and close them the day above mentioned at 12pm GMT+0, my time zone ((Red)).

Thanks for reading all this and until the next announcement/release!!

Good luck!!

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS + RELEASE DATES

I hope people read this.

Red here, making yet another announcement.

I'm close to finishing that project that was keeping me so busy ((it's due to the 16th this month)) and well in the end I had to code a game for it so UUPS no McMeenah. I was too busy to even inform you guys sorry ; A ;

The point is the Studio will resume working on all the games ((McMeenah, that Homestuck platformer, our secret project and Star Traveller)) after I give in the project and do the presentation which is oooon... the 18th.

McMeenah's still close to completition, I wanna do some changes to the platformer, the secret project is advancing secretly and Star Traveller is more or less in the unreleased Demo 1.2 state.

NOW FOR WHAT PEOPLE LIKE TO HEAR AND I'LL SHUT UP

Serious release dates:

Yes, we need some because if else we just slack til last day and end up not making it.

Star Traveller Demo 1.2 (01/26)

Yes, we finally decided it'd be nice to upload a not bugged version of the boss. It'll be mostly the same but I'll try to improve a couple of stuff as well, since I have progressed in GML programming since then.

Homestuck Platformer (wip name) Demo (02/09)

It's basically finished but yes, I wanna change some stuff.

McMeenah (03/16)

I know the game is close to completition, but honestly we have to test and maybe redo some stuff so I prefer to have a full not bugged version before releasing it.

What does that mean?? Well it basically means you're gonna havea demo or game released each month til April. We'll probs stop then for a month and continue doing stuff on May. We're human. We need rest.

Keep an eye on the blog for announcements on new games or release dates!!

More McMeenah screenies cause we know you guys love them.

Game is close to be finished, we just need to finish the art and correct alll the bugs. All of them. Thanks for all the support guys!

More McMeenah screenies for you guys while we keep on working on everything!!

School is annoying, Rinny and Red said. They weren’t exactly laughing. THEY WERE SETTING IT ON FIRE

But Dipper goes to Taco Bell references apart, I’m here to make a couple of announcements, obviously.

First I want to say that Star Traveller’s final 1.2 demo will be available the 29th of this month (September) and it’ll be the last tech demo till the real one which I suppose will happen around April next year. (Yeah, it’s a lot of time)

On another hand, we’re hoping to release McMeenah somewhere in the next month, but I have only managed to design 3 out of 6 stages, so if you’ve seen the first one and are interested, we’re going to do a little contest.

Simply reblog this post with your idea, the goal of the stage must be to shut up Kankri, but his victim doesn’t necesarily need to be Karkat. He can get in a discussion with Porrim, for example, that would be valid too. You can use up to 4 interactive points counting characters and objects INCLUDING Kankri and/or his victim if your idea is that you can interact with them.

The stage can be set in any of the dream bubble locations Meenah walked through the flash and if the second flash gets released before McMeenah, those locations will count too.

Good luck participating and thanks for helping and supporting S.S. Studio!!

Given all the issues with the demo 1.1 we're releasing ANOTHER technical demo 1.2 which will have some changes like a new boss routine and more animations maybe some sprite changes.

As I always say, that's mainly due to it being a technical demo and not the actual demo.

We're paralely working on McMeenah, which we'll release a couple of screenshots maybe later or in a few days and then we'll keep working till the final release.

Musicians, spriters and level designers are still needed so if you want to apply you can use either my ask box or Rinny's.

Presenting our new short project, McMeenah!!

Rinny and I finally decided on a name for our partnership so we'll be known as Sea Separated Studio from now on.

And now referencing to the game, we're making a Homestuck Fan Game based on the popular retro game McPixel you can find on this website.

You'll be able to play as Meenah through 6 different stages (dream bubbles) where you'll find most of the new characters along with everyone else. The main point of the game is to shut up or distract Kankri so you can save Karkat and finally be friends with him!! Not ALL stages involve that EXACTLY so just explore your posibilities!! The game will offer the same as McPixel, a point'n'click styled gameplay with various gags to discover as you play through it, so be sure you explore every option possible in each stage, even after finding the solution!!

The game is in early developement but we hope it's going to catch your attention and that you are going to stay tuned for its release this or the next month.
