Puzzle Blade released on iOS!

Hey all,

My name is Matt Silverstein and once upon a time I was the Lead Character Artist at THQ San Diego. Then THQ went bankrupt and after eight years of uninterrupted console dev I decided to take a risk and try something new and exciting (and really, really hard).

I spent the last 8 months learning C# programming and Unity in order to make my first independently released game. It’s a silly little iPad game called Puzzle Blade and it’s live on the App Store as of today, June 5th. It was done 100% by me, at home, mostly in my pajamas.

It’s free so if you own an iPad please check it out! Thanks!

Here’s an iTunes link: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/puzzle-blade/id601169518?ls=1&mt=8

woo, mustn’t be easy work, congratulations! Match-3 games are too many in the market though your game looks interesting. Hope you could do it better and better! I have downloaded one :slight_smile:

This looks pretty good, and considering you did everything is more impressive. Sorry about THQ, but 8 months by yourself to ship a product is pretty fast. Will there be a phone port later?

Haha, thanks! I hope I can do it better and better, too!

Thanks very much, dude, and also THANKS for the app store review. Very much appreciated. I wouldn’t mind doing a phone version down the road a bit. Just need a little break. Dealing with multiple aspect ratios was causing me headaches so I needed to simplify for my first game. Next time I’ll plan better from the start. :slight_smile:
