DrakeHellsing Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I am curious on this one, especially based upon how the trophies are and in turn, the type of game this one is suppose to mirror, if it's like a crossword, but only one word to find? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckydonut Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Surprised to see these trophies so early - it's not even fully approved yet. I'm afraid the release date we're aiming for isn't until December 18th, and that may still slip in NA. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh-oh - I blame Sony for blowing the surprise lol Also do you guys have some good high-res art for this game (without logos) similar to what we did for the last game?

That's not a bad date, another game for my Vita... even though I still need to finish off the Word Sudoku sometime, just been lazy with that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah... well I realized I was not meaning crossword, but word search (it's got the word, well, "word" in it ). But regardless of that, this is also good to know, hopefully soon enough we get that as well, especially since I very much like those puzzles as is, very fun ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need more BIOSHOCK Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Ah sweet! I loved doing the wordsearches on the vita, got to do them all over again on the PS4 too. Sodoku I just used the solutions as I've never understood what that shit means! Will be getting this one for sure too keep up the good progress Powgi! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madbuk Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Feels like the devs have sold out with this and Word Sudoku. You used to have to do every puzzle in the game, and even some time trials and misc objectives, but now you only have to do a few puzzles. It's like they recognized trophy whores were buying the game and have dumbed everything down to accommodate, and I'm not sure how to feel about it. I love Picross but seeing how these games have evolved has me steering clear of supporting it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckydonut Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Thanks for all the positive comments everyone. I love this community, and I'm so glad we decided to bring games to PlayStation. Really wish we'd looked into it sooner, but I wasn't sure how well it would be received. (We tried to publish on Steam one time... and that did not go down so well). Anyway... as it looks like I set the wrong date to release one of the trophy sets, I may as well start hyping it up! Here's the preview video: https://youtu.be/oLipZ64fu0Y Each quote has between 3 and 8 words missing, which are the words to find in each puzzle. It plays like word search, except there's only one word in each grid, and the letters it's hidden in are only the letters that make up the target word. It's more challenging than it sounds, but I'm sure someone will make a guide almost instantly There are 120 quotes to complete, which is twice as many as in other versions of the game. Each trophy is one specific quote. You'll get the platinum naturally by working through the game, but for those inclined to short-cut things, you only actually need to reveal 32 specific quotes for the platinum. On PS4, up to four can play, each logged in to their own PSN Profile. Trophies are awarded to all players - same as Word Search by POWGI. 7 hours ago, BlindMango said: Also do you guys have some good high-res art for this game (without logos) similar to what we did for the last game?

I love Picross but seeing how these games have evolved has me steering clear of supporting it. Thanks for the feedback. We get comments like this both ways. Some found Fill-a-Pix to be a real grind, for instance, and I get that. (I still haven't done the Vita version myself!). The time trials were particularly disliked, because you can end up completing the same puzzle multiple times after you already figured out the solution, so we stopped doing that. Sometimes trophies don't fit all that well into the puzzle structure we've already established. It's just not possible to have 120 trophies - one for every puzzle. But "Complete page one", "Complete page two", etc, is quite dull. I don't know how much it's appreciated, but we always like to try to use some colour in the trophy titles, and cherry-picking certain quotes made that possible. (I'm particularly pleased with "Papal Account"). You're right that we understand trophies can influence whether people purchase a game. I have to admit, I waited to see what the trophies were for Spider-Man before deciding whether I wanted to play it straight away or wait a while. I can't believe I still haven't bought Tetris Ultimate for PS Vita, but the impossible trophies keep putting me off. So we've tried to strike a balance here. If someone would like to buy our game for an easy platinum, I'm definitely not going to discourage that. We're a tiny studio making niche products, and it's not easy making a living from game development. But for the majority who want to play it "properly" (because they actually enjoy word games!) they'll earn the platinum for solving all the puzzles in order, and I hope that will still be satisfying. By the way, the next Pic-a-Pix game (early next year) has no short-cuts. You'll have to solve everything again - there's just no time trials! 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes indeed, love your trophy list..... however you can also push up to 60+ bronze, 1 or 2 silver, and 1 gold.... could work also and it's cool to earn many trophies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
