This is another project I worked on with Spyros. This was specifically developed as an entry for the Tizen App Challenge. There were many sections that could be submitted to in the contest and the sum of all the prizes added up to more than 4 million dollars. I’m pretty sure the primary purpose was a baseline of quality apps developed for the Tizen store which is why the company contributed so much money towards it. I believe this competition was also the reason why Yoyogames added Tizen as one of the valid platforms for Game Maker.

We didn’t win but it was a good experience and this turned out to be my favorite of the 3 fighting games I made with Spyros. I think the art style looked the best in this game, music was made especially for the game which sounded pretty good and I also liked the Hercules theme in general.

There were some new features to the game apart from a different theme. The story line was portrayed through an interactive slideshow and it developed as you beat more bosses. You could select the bosses by choosing between icons on a map of Europe and styles of the individual bosses differed more. Compared to the other games this one was also designed more with the mobile platform in mind. During both the slide show and the map the user could navigate with swiping, yet another thing I’ve never tried out before (although since then I have made a generalized extension for mobile integration which can be found on the Game Maker Market place)
