Death of a Project

So our Project: Steal 2 original game is no more... the server has been shut down. Sad to see that ambitious project unfulfilled. It promised a lot of classic fun in the social gaming scene, with the chance to steal from real players. The current Project: Steal prequel game on all mobile platforms is still available to download of course, so please go get it if you haven't already!

Here's a memory, a screenshot from our first ever playable version of Steal 2 created in 2012. Very moody lighting (too dark!), our thief waits in the dark, on our tutorial level.

Say hello to the Finnish game company you've never heard of, that doesn't exist anymore, and is debuting on Windows Phone

When you hear about the Finnish mobile games industry, most people tend to think of Supercell and Rovio. PocketGamer.biz readers might offer up Next Games, Grand Cru and perhaps Fingersoft. But...

Steal 2 Screenshots

So today there's a newspaper article about our game. I thought I would share the screenshots that were part of that press pack, especially as they were not printed in the article. If you have found our website from reading that article, welcome! I'm really lazy about writing anything interesting here though... twitter is where you see some more action @NoMorePieGames

These images show the game is still a WIP, but as we approach Beta (honestly, we are still working hard to release this game very soon!) we are mainly working on features not visual quality. Amazing to see myself, as The Artist, typing that- but the game is more important than my picky art tastes right at this moment. 

Here are some images.

As we approach the release of Steal2 (this year!), it's time to start sharing some of our process so far. Here's a time lapse of the very first concept image created while considering what a 2.5D bank robbing platformer could look like.

Inspiration

Inspiration for our current game Steal 2, comes from many sources, many of which are political. As you can guess from the name though, our game is mostly about stealing, and in our research we were fascinated by this brilliant and detailed story of possibly the largest, and most impressive robbery ever carried out. An impenetrable vault, in the heart of Antwerp's diamond district turned out to be.. well, not impenetrable at all.

No More Pie Shop!

This week we decided you might want to promote our brand for us, how about it? Actually myself (The Artist) and Mr Wizard attended a little games event in our city. As you can see from my instagram that night, I decided to wear our company logo as a t-shirt design. That helped a few people recognise us, so yes, those people know our true identity! This got me thinking though, the t-shirt looked rather good, people seemed to like it, so we've decided to launch a little webshop where you can order your own No More Pie merchandise, including t-shirts of course. The small amount of money we make on each item will go straight into the development budget for Steal 2, so you'd be helping your favourite game company and looking cool at the same time. What's not to like about that? You can see the shop has a permalink at the top of our website, or click on this t-shirt...
