We’ve been hard at work finishing up Blush.  The game is coming together well; it looks beautiful!  To give you an idea of what we’re up to in the final week of a project like this, Ben took a camera around the office yesterday and asked everyone what they were working on:

Ben also did a fantastic walkthrough of the Blush scene as viewed in Unity:

Both of these videos are HD, and viewed best directly on Vimeo in 720p. The best way to keep on top of new videos, and Blurst news in general, is to follow us on Twitter.

Finally, one last piece of news–our 2009 schedule calls for a game launch every 8 weeks, which we’ve scheduled for the 1st of every other month. In order to keep our sanity, and have a bit of a weekend, we’ve decided to launch games on weekdays. Blush will be launching here on Blurst.com on Monday, March 2nd.

Hey everybody!  Hope you’re playing and enjoying Minotaur China Shop. From the stats we’ve been seeing and the comments all over the internets, it seems you are.  Cheers, and thanks again for playing!  It really does make us so happy to see people playing and enjoying our games.

Just popping in to officially post these two sweet videos Ben made and posted to our Vimeo account. If you want to keep up with stuff like this, an easy way is to follow our Blurst Twitter Account. The first is of the “final hours” kind, taken just before launch (and featuring and appearance by Ubisoft’s business development department, natch.) The second is a preview of some of the sweet Minoschwag we created in a limited run for the launch of the game. Our marketing budget is about as much as a trip to the grocery store, but we still get to make some fun stuff like shirts and mugs. And china that’s meant to be smashed.

Keep your eyes on this space for information on upcoming competitions in which you may be able to win the video-featured schwagery.
