Title: PieceFall coming to PS4
Post by: dhdc on July 07, 2015, 09:59:19 pm
Hey guys,

I have just finish studying for my degree and a game that I worked on as part of my studies is being released soon for the PS4. I have provided a link to a news post below as it has a video and a bit more information. If you don't mind checking it out it would be cool, the game itself will cost £1 and is released on the 15th of July.

For those of you are interested, it was developed using Sony's PyreEngine (C++) and I personally worked on porting the prototype from PS3, Saving and Loading and asset management (as well as work to get it past Compliance testing).

I can buy a game for a quid. I wonder how much time it'll take for my playstation to update. Every time I went to use my PS3 I'd have to wait 90 minutes before I could do anything.

I don't actually own a PS4, so I can't get it myself :*(.

Sadly, I do not own a PS4. Any chance of it arriving on PC?

Anyway, a nice-looking 3D tetris(ish)? What's not to like?

I don't believe so, even though the main build runs on PC I don't think the UNI is looking to do it :*(
