The Secret Castle - 3D Hidden Object Game

Hey everyone! Apparently it’s been a while since I logged into the forums as I lost my original user name! (Joshua_Falkner). Anyway, last Thursday ( March 28th ) my passion project of over 2 years finally launched on iOS: The Secret Castle.

I built the game to blend together 2D and 3D space in a unique (at least unique to me) way. A few notes, we launched at GDC which was really cool, we’re featured the App Store under New Notable and in 6 days we’ve got over 100K downloads. The game is free for the first 2 levels and then a one time purchase of 2.99 to unlock the rest of the game.

It feels SO great to finally finish a game that I’ve worked on in my spare time for so long! Anyhow, just wanted to share this with everyone. Here comes the wall of screen shots since I apparently don’t know how to resize them in BBcode! (sorry)

Congrats on releasing your game!

Pretty awesome looking. Reminds me of “Rittai Kakushi e Attakoreda” on Nintendo 3DS.

Thanks I am da bawss! Yeah, I totally played the North American version called ‘Looksly’s Lineup’ (At least I think that’s the same game) and was super impressed with the effect. Since I can’t pull off head tracking on an iPhone or iPad (at least, not that I’m aware) I thought the accelerometer would do nicely, which it does.

Cheers!
