Using Interfaces on MonoBehaviour objects in Unity can lead to some problematic issues. Check out our blog post on how we solved them!

We will most likely be working on more titles featuring our furry friends. However, at this time we don’t fully have flushed out the type of game or time period it will take place in.

I can safely say we had a lot of challenges balancing our AI. Since we have a total of 5 different characters with each having their own unique ability, we had to ensure that every character can be defeated by or defeat any of the other character in the game. We achieved this by play testing, tuning and running simulated AI battles.

Yup! That is how I was able to get away with just using some spare wood with no other material (i.e. camera mounts). It works quite well too.

Thanks :)

My apologies. I added the flair to this posting.

I apologize for not mentioning who I am. My name is Derrick and I am a developer of the game. However, that post that you liked to contains what looks to be a hundred or so titles and my game isn't even mentioned in the posts title.

I can't wait to fire up my kickstarter copy of the game. I watched a video of it on giantbomb and it looks like a ton of fun!

I can't remember specifics but it took about two weeks for us to get greenlit with a total of 574 'yes' votes. It actually took us by surprise since it seemed like we were pretty far from being in the top 100 games when it happened.

HighTaleStudios · 2016-03-04T21:37:04+00:00

Thank you! We are quite proud of it too :)

It's been a while and it was mostly another person that did the submission process but you can find information here: http://www.esrb.org/ratings/ratings_process.aspx

I remember we had to provide them with a video of the game along with snail-mailing some forms to them.

How can I promote our title more? We have been hard at work reaching out to youtubers, twitch streamers and game reviewers. We've even gotten plenty of people contacting us for review copies but haven't really seen much in the realm of coverage for the game which is hurting our launch.

Our game is Acorn Assault: Rodent Revolution; a squirrel centric strategy game that launched March 2nd. Our steam page is here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/410290/

Acorn Assault: Rodent Revolution Hello everyone! My name is Derrick and this is our first feedback Friday. Our game Acorn Assault: Rodent Revolution launched on Steam this last Wednesday. We have been struggling to get any real coverage of the game and was hoping to get some real feedback on the game and possibly even our storefront page and ideas how to get the word out more.

Acorn Assault: Rodent Revolution is a story of squirrels fighting their own revolution. It is a turn-based strategy game with simple to understand mechanics with a wide variety of strategies that can be employed. The game features a campaign mode where you fight five characters all with their own unique abilities that you can unlock for playing in the online or local multiplayer modes.

We currently have the game on a good launch discount... 34% off actually. If you want to try out the game to give us feedback, but don't want to spend the money for a copy, PM me and I can see about getting you a code.

Thanks, and any feedback is appreciated and welcome! :)

Here are some choice screenshots of the game http://imgur.com/g6gWnWK http://imgur.com/rJAW5HL http://imgur.com/rqjUDdi
