zOMGies has finally been released on Newgrounds! Its taken us a while to sort out but im proud to say its the first non exclusive license Newgrounds has done.

Go and unlock all of the medals now! (except BOOM!, i think that might be impossible, ill try and get it fixed!)

Found a pretty good walkthrough if anyone is finding it too hard, it gets a lot more fun in the later levels!

RobotJam just released Gone to The Dogs! I gave him a hand with the dog animations, go and check it out if you like laid back sim games, its great fun. Fantastic music too!

Ive taken about a month off making games now and im fucking chomping to sit back down and get some work done. I have my final university project to finish before may ( a massive turn based RPG, read about it here) and then I'm officially going freelance and making games full time. 2009 was a great year for me, Ive learnt a shitload from working with LongAnimals and released some great games, but this year I want to blow everything ive done before away.

My next project with LA will be Penguinz 2, ive been talking about and planning it for nearly a year now, but as soon as Uni is finished im gonna be 100% commited to getting it done. We havent chosen exactly what we are going to do with it yet, personally I want to go down the Micro Transactions route and make it like nothing else you can play online, but we'll see. Whatever happens you will be able to play the entire game for free, so dont worry about missing out if you dont wanna pay to play it :)

Its going to be similar to the first game but with metal slug style level progression, huge boss battles and a shit load of other features im not going to tell you about ;)

A zOMGies sequel is also likely, although ill want a break from shooters after P2. Got lots of ideas we could use, mainly lots of upgrades, vehicles, and 360 degree aiming. The great thing about doing a sequel is that we only spent 2 weeks on the original, so improving and surpassing it wont be hard. What would you guys like to see in a sequel?
