RocketSnail

Over the past couple years I have watched countless virtual worlds come and go, and I have wondered what made Club Penguin so special.

Many people have asked “What is your favourite party, game, or feature of Club Penguin?”

Way back in the summer of 2000 a young animator named Chris Hendricks (Screenhog) sent me this animation and his resume.

Frankendie Hey my copy of Frankendie arrived yesterday!

Board Games Sometime in early 2000 I was introduced to the board game Settlers of Catan.

Standing Desk Hey my new standing desk from details just arrived.

Last June I tweeted “My goal is to help kickstart 5 new studios in the next 5 years in Kelowna”.

For the past couple months I have been secretly working with the very talented Pascale Audette to create a larger game studio in Kelowna, British Columbia Canada.

Hey Mech Mice fans!

The winner of the RocketSnail Halloween Poster was selected through a process of elimination.

Hey RocketSnail Fans, looking for an awesome Halloween Snails poster?

While the programming team is mapping the level, the art team is busy painting and texturing the level.

Now the team has started adding props (models) to the level, the programming team begins build a map of the level.

Once we have decided on the key details for the level, we start modelling the level.

Mech Mice is now in full production, and we need to grow our team.

After the team has created the map wireframe, we start sketching details for the map.

The new Snail Dojo is looking awesome!

After the team has created a rough concept of the map, and a rough illustration of the environment we begin to create a 3D wireframe of the level.

Remember the Snail Dojo concept illustration we posted a couple weeks ago?

After the team has created a detailed map, we start creating concept illustrations of the environment.

The RocketSnail Team is busy working on the first collection of maps for the Mech Mice game.

Hey Snail fans!

I am surprised by how many game developers continue to ignore the free-to-play business model and the impact of Club Penguin on the game industry.

The entire RocketSnail team is back in action.

CHAPTER 21 - The Miracle True to their word, the Liwans did have wings.

Well I tend to suffer from analysis paralysis when making game design decisions.

The amazing team at RocketSnail Games has just finished porting “Box of Snails” to the iPad.

Mech Mice is moving along quickly.

Today the RocketSnail team invites you to explore our little world of snails.

The wait is finally over!
