Underhero Fanart Contest! WIN A KEY FOR THE GAME!

https://youtu.be/o_xwps3-eE0

Mr. Stitches:

Hello, my dear children.

It has come to my attention that some of you enjoy making fanart of our little game. So I, Mr. Stitches, Lord of Darkness, and other grim titles, have decided to hold a fanart contest!

Let’s discuss how this will work, so pay attention! You lovely scum, you.

1st- Join our Discord server here!

And enter the channel called #fanart-contest.

2nd- Upload a file of your fanart!



That’s right, a file.
This fanart contest is not just for drawings; it’s for music, fan fiction, handmade crafts, cosplay, fan games, videos, you name it!

3rd- I, Lord Stitches, will choose 6 winners:



The first 3 winners will be chosen from the best of the best, truly recognized for their effort and creativity.
The other 3 winners will be chosen after the first three, and they will be chosen at random!
So it doesn’t matter what artistic level you have, everyone has a chance of winning!

Disclosure: We will only accept ONE piece of fanart per person, so pick your favorite and send it!
No cheating or I W I L L K N O W.


4th- The glorious prizes:





I will bestow upon the winners a key for Underhero, in their platform of choice (Steam or Gamejolt, Windows PC only!). I will let my goons contact the winners privately through discord. They are lazy, but not even they can ignore my orders. HAHAHA!

And for the second super special prize…

WE WILL SHOWCASE THE WINNERS AND THEIR ART, IN-GAME!

Your art, forever immortalized inside the code of Underhero.
It will be hidden in a secret room. I hope you find it! (We will add this room in an update, after launch).

5th- Time time time:



The contest starts today, so you can start sending that sweet fanart NOW, until September 15. That day will be the end of the contest.

The next day on September 16, the winners will be announced!

And even if you don’t win, we still have a little surprise for all the contestants…

That same day, we will update the Underhero demo!



So there you go, no one is allowed to complain now.

I bid you farewell for now, my underlings…
If you have any questions, you can reach my lackeys through twitter, discord, or the comments section below.

DO YOUR BEST AND GOOD LUCK!



UNDERHERO RELEASE DATE ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

https://youtu.be/gARU7MO1YnE

Against all odds, Underhero will release September 19, 2018!



It will be available on Windows PC in English, initially (ports and other languages to be announced) for $14.99!

Can’t even begin to describe how excited we are to release this thing. From all of us in Paper Castle Games, we hope you enjoy playing it as much as we enjoyed making it!

Stay tuned for more updates in the upcoming weeks!
We plan to unveil short gameplay videos, art, more music videos, plus an updated demo later down the line.

And lastly, we would appreciate it forever if you could share the trailer and the game with everyone you can!

We love you, see you soon! <3

Underhero is Content Complete! (Development Update)


That’s right!

Underhero has all of its assets in place and ready to roll.
What does that mean exactly? It means that every:

…is finished.



<< BUT HOLD YOUR HORSES >>



We might be reaching here, but we can predict what you’re thinking right now:

DOES THIS MEAN THE GAME IS READY!?

WHEN IS IT COMING OUT?!?!?!1?!?!!

                               Signed: You.

And to that we say:

NOPE :(

                               Signed: Us

We are in the very pain-staking process of testing absolutely everything in the game: every system, every script, every interaction, every fight…

E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G



This testing process will take more time to finish, because we want to polish this thing to our high standard of quality.

All in all the game is coming really soon, but you’ll still have to hold on a while longer. We promise it’s going to be worth the wait! You have no idea how excited we are to release this thing and hear your thoughts, to see you play, to read your theories, your fan art, AHHH.

As a matter of fact, how about a little sneak peek of a

never

before

seen

world?

Enjoy!





We cannot wait for release, same as you!

All we ask is a little patience (and that you tell everyone you know about our game so we can continue making games after this one!).



Mr. Stitches loves ya, see you next time!

Find those beats!




A while ago we mentioned something about collectables, and today we want to show you one of those:

The music cassettes that you’ll be able to find hidden in every world!

What do you do with these cassettes?

Well, change the music of Save Stations of course!



Jam to your fave Stijn composed song in that hip stereo!

Can you find them all? ;)

*Gasp* A fun water level!?

*Gasp* A fun water level!?





Hello everyone, happy new year! It has been a while.



We are making good progress with the game lately. Testing and polishing is taking most of our time, we can’t commit to a date yet, but we are getting there!

Today I wanted to talk about water jets!
In our last update, we showed a very sonic-esque animation if you recall.
Well that animation is for underwater sections.

We thought about how to make a water level "fun", and simply improving your mobility and removing the element of drowning actually makes these sections a lot of fun!



Your trajectory depends on the direction you make contact with the water jets. You can change your trajectory a little bit while rolling too! And pressing jump lets you stop the rolling.

The best part about this is that you can chain water jets, increasing your max speed exponentially! It’s really satisfying to pull off.
And underwater hazards like the ballon fish can be avoided if you’re rolling too.

Exploring underwater is really fun now! So we made sure to add secret chests and goodies throughout the level ;)

And to close today’s update, here’s a little story sneak peek!







Who is that "Don" they’re talking about?

(Let us know if you enjoy these kind of updates as announcements!
We could use this for smaller updates too.)

See you guys next time!
