Projects for LDW

What are the current Projects that LDW are working on?

We just released Fish Tycoon for Pocket PC. We will do a bugfix/minor update to that in the near future.

We have been working on a completely new game since about September. It will take place once again on Isola, the locale where Plant and Fish Tycoon take place. We will be less vague very soon with some teasers, and soon after that some screenshots. It will be a pretty unique game. We are aiming for a winter release.

I CANT WAIT!!!!!!!! LOL

Any hints yet? It's been almost a week. P-L-E-A-S-E

Read somewhere that lemonade Tycoon is now available for PDA/pocket PC...is that true? I presume that this is not an LDW game? what a pity...

Its been around for a long time.

News will be coming soon. The game in coming along, but we want to get everything right.

Arthur

<drooling>....Not to worry! You guys ALWAYS get it right!!

WOW....When you said "teaser", you really meant it!!!

How about a hint/screenshot?

Yes, a tiny hint!

Screenshots coming very soon.

Where have I heard that before?

Now that I finally got the right activation code I love Fish Tycoon and recently bought Plant Tycoon and love it as well. Are these two games going to made available for PC's as well??

Any news YET?

We released one screenshot on Palm247.com. We wanted to give them an exclusive, so its only there. We'll post it and a new one here tomorrow.

Arthur

Thanks Arthur!

Ok, now I am excited.

Are you working on Palm and PPC at the same time?

Screen Shot of the new sim!!!

Wow......

*Waiting with baited breathe*

Ok Arthur,

Enough about the screen shot already....when do we start beta testing?.....jk .....maybe

OK!! Here are two screenshots of the game we are working on

They look great! So will this be kind of a scaled down Sims game? The screenshots look like they are from a Palm. Are you planning on waiting until you are finished with the Palm version to work on the PPC, or are you currently working on both?

I'm hoping for an adventure game. Arthur's teaser says: "real time adventure sim" and that sounds like a lot of fun! The first screen shot that was posted hints at that - the action field says, "curious about the rock." That smells like an adventure game to me - my FAVORITE kind of game!!

Ooo... Village sim... Nifty! I want it now -_- Playing god to little simulated people is my passion. In Black and White, I used to play bowling, with the villagers as pins ^_^ Probably won't get to do anything like that in this abso-freaking-lutely adorable little sim you guys have cooked up for us... but I have to ask: In Plant Tycoon, there were Magic Plants, among other plants which we sold for money. In Fish Tycoon, we had Magic Fish, and other fish we sold for money. Does this 'Village Sim' mean we have to breed 'Magic Villagers'? Somehow that just doesn't sound right.. -_- As for the idea of selling things... well, I'm not a fan of slavery, so I hope we won't be selling off our villagers O.o I assume you guys have something else in mind to raise funds? Perhaps these little villagers have farms? Also, is there any idea yet as to the date of release, preferably more detailed than, "We hope for a Winter release"?

Welcome to the forums! Your speculation on the new game cracked me up! What would a Magic Villager look like, I wonder? Unfortunately, much to the chagrin of all of us game-hungry LDW-addicted people out here who are eagerly awaiting his new releases, Arthur likes to keep us guessing. I think he enjoys seeing all of the speculation flying around the forums! I've seen him respond to begging before; maybe he might give us another hint if we all started begging?!?

If I were to imagine a "Magic Villager", it would probably leave a trail of sparkles, like the Magic Fish, and... and... they can fly! Yes. Flying sparkly Magic Villagers. They could probably walk on water, too. Or part the seas, if they'd rather As for begging... *ahem* Please tell us, O Wise Sage! *kow-tows before Arthur* Enlighten us with your infinite wisdom, for we are poor ignorant savages in comparison! (Is my nose brown enough yet? ^_~)

I'll join in on the begging, since I seem to be getting some practice in the Little Palm Pet forum. Please please please. . .

I think the magic villagers should have blue hair.

Lol! If something didn't leave sparkles behind it, how would you know it was magic?

Ok you will not be selling any villagers, so forget that straight off. Don't expect a game just like Fish and Plant Tycoon, because we wanted to take a break from that structure. We are taking some chances with a pretty unique game design, we believe.

Mikani, judging from your comments I suspect you will enjoy the game. We are inching along closer to beta, slowly but steadily!

Arthur

Whoo-hoo! Gotta love betas. Of course, school starts back the 18th, so that will give me something to do in my boring classes.

C'mon Beta! Can't wait.

But just as "radical" as Plant and Fish Tycoon were (and still is)?

It is definiately a trail of patience.
