Yeah, so Skulls of the Shogun is a game I'm working on. It's turn-based strategy where you're controlling armies of undead samurai, wrecking shit and pissing everyone off in the afterlife as you try to reclaim your stolen honor. But don't listen to me yap about it, watch the E3 trailer I just cut. My dad does the voice of the skull and executes Sega Genesis references with aplomb.

I am excited by the idea of a Sho Nuff skulljob.

DO WANT

If/when this comes out on iPad with local MP, I will get a friend to play it with, even if I have to make one out of spunk and clay like Zeus

I find it hard to have the time for games that aren't turn based these days, so it's a match made in bore heaven

Make one for me, too. I could use a Cormonculus.

I'd love to see more turn based strategy games. Is it similar to battlefield?

We don't control pricing, but it should be in line with other recent stuff.

day one on XBLA here (if I can afford it)! I havent played a turn based strategy game in ages, and I do enjoy them.

Make sure there are no bullshit achievements

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #30 on:** June 05, 2012, 11:39:06 AM »

I believe the cheevos are pretty reasonable, there's one I don't like tho so I'm fighting the good fight.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #31 on:** June 05, 2012, 12:57:05 PM »

Who did the art? It's nice.

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #32 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:57:00 PM »

My boss Jake Kazdal. He did ALL of the art. ALL OF IT. It's like 3 years worth of work. AFAIK he did almost all the animation too, there's another guy named Callen who we call in to do some anim work (he does the cutscene animation for me).

Madrun Badrun · « **Reply #33 on:** June 05, 2012, 04:20:04 PM »

this looks rather good

Shaka Khan · « **Reply #34 on:** June 05, 2012, 07:31:17 PM »

Would love to try it out, but it's not coming to a platform I currently own. But hey, I have some spare space points in my wallet so maybe I'll buy it from Xbox.com until I figure a way to play it.

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #38 on:** June 07, 2012, 12:28:13 PM »

I was demoing the game at PAX East and these two guys came up and were asking about mobile versions. I told them that we were shipping on Windows Phone and the one guy went nuts on his friend: "See? Windows Phone ONLY! You and your iPhone can SUCK IT!" and did a little victory dance. I told him, "You must cherish this victory, my friend, because you are unlikely to have many more like it."

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #39 on:** June 07, 2012, 12:41:31 PM »

haha- id play it on iOS too- have an iPad 3, so whatever

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #40 on:** June 07, 2012, 01:10:35 PM »

We shall keep that in mind

The tablet Win8 version is legitimately awesome, feels REAL good with multitouch on a big ass screen.

Will get this on XBLA in support of the NUFF.

Will this have any Smart Ass tech support?

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #43 on:** June 07, 2012, 02:26:02 PM »

Not at the moment, but I'm kind of wondering what we could do with it if we had the time/budget to implement it.
