Stealing the Diamond Sequel + Pico Day(!)

Posted by PuffballsUnited - April 8th, 2013

Hi! It's been almost a year since I posted here, sorry.. I kept telling myself I'd do it but then I'd get distracted. Anyway, got some news here for ya.

First off, I've been working on the sequel to Stealing the Diamond for the past 4 months (actually more but since the start of this year I've been pretty on it about working every day). If you follow me on Twitter you probably know all this. The sequel is going to be called..
Infiltrating the Airship

I'm about 75% done with it and the fail count is at 50 and I'm shooting for 60 or 62 (Can't have it be a filthy odd number) EDIT, just realized 61 is a prime number which makes it even worse! As for a release date, I'm hoping to get it released sometime in May. I've made some timelapse videos of different parts of the game. Here's one of the title screen being made.

In other exciting news, I got invited to Pico day and I've booked a flight I'm going!! I'm really excited (But also quite nervous) to meet everyone at NG and of course all the animators, artists, programmers, musicians and the rest that are going. I used to watch the steam in years past and wonder what it would be like to be there with everyone, and now I'm going to find out!

So yeah,
Stealing the Diamond 2 = Infiltrating the Airship
Pico day, I am going

Well hope I didn't forget anything.

Pico Day, woohoo! We're setting up the video stream stuff this week.

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-08 15:30:10

Awesome! :D It'll be weird to be on the other side of the screen this year haha.

MattGoop 2013-04-08 15:39:31

Waiting patiently for ItA.Hi-five,man!

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-08 15:39:31

High five!

NHPhillips 2013-04-08 17:08:45

So freakin excited dude... Stealing the Diamond is without question on my top 5 favorite games I've played on Newgrounds. I sure hope it has Medals though.

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-08 17:08:45

Wow thanks! That's still weird for me to hear. It's def gonna have medals! A lot more than Stealing the Diamond.

JonBro 2013-04-08 20:18:58

Someday I want to make a game with the same kind of staggering scale Infiltrating the Airship probably has. It sounds humongous!

Have fun at Pico Dayyy

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-08 20:18:58 (Updated 2013-04-09 00:31:14)

I'll let you judge for yourself how big it is when it releases. You're not gonna go to Pico day?

MartianBattleplan 2013-04-08 20:19:50

Odd numbers killed my family. I feel your discontent for such scum.

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-08 20:19:50

We must unite against them!

VicariousE 2013-04-09 03:57:04

Glad to hear you're going to the party, and believe me, you're going with some impressive credentials under your hat, so there's no need to worry. I on the other hand, am grossly underqualified... and old.

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-09 03:57:04

I can't help but compare myself to the great animators of NG though, but thanks! I'll be sure to look out for someone that looks like Asterix when I'm there.

Cyberdevil 2013-04-09 07:10:07

That's great news, all of it. Guess I'll be seeing you on the webcam then. As for Stealing the Diamond, looking forward to that! I just played the first game a couple of weeks ago and wasn't expecting any more greatness like it, so this was an unexpectedly blissful surprise. Good lcuk at the meet!

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-09 07:10:07

Except nobody knows what I look like MWAHAHAHAHAAAAhhh. Hey thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the game! This next one is so much better than Stealing the Diamond (In my opinion anyway)

vova3607 2013-04-09 12:32:18

cool ^ ^ )

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-09 12:32:18

That is a crooked smile

madcat2575 2013-04-09 17:52:49

I sure hope you manage to pack a ton of references in this new game. It's what really helped make the previous games so enjoyable.

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-09 17:52:49

Of course! But it's a fine line between too many and too few. Hopefully I did well

DJ4321 2013-04-09 19:21:20

awesome cant wait to play it

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-09 19:21:20

I can't wait to finish it!

Slirun 2013-04-09 20:55:06

have fun in pico day PuffballsUnited. :)

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-09 20:55:06

Thanks! I'm sure it'll be awesome!

AssassinJoK3Rz 2013-04-09 22:55:05

The last game was pretty funny

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-09 22:55:05

Thanks!

vova3607 2013-04-10 06:52:38

Game Medals (will secret ? )

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-10 06:52:38

Yep, haven't decided how many of them will be secret yet

vova3607 2013-04-10 06:54:04

sorry that I said stupidity !

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-10 06:54:04

You're fine

Mini130 2013-04-10 10:39:25

I thought I was alone when it came down to never have a odd number on anything XD

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-10 10:39:25

Looks like a lot of people are the same

Sonicrpg 2013-04-10 14:18:27

Dude, awesome man! I am looking forward to this!

Just a question, how many Henry Stickmen game are you gonna make?

Also, have fun at Pico Day!

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-10 14:18:27

I think this will be the last Henry game for a while. It's really hard to make a game like this and have it feel new. Plus I think I want to move on past stick figures and develop my skills more. I also want to move into making more advanced games.

drey-drey 2013-04-11 08:48:15

Sir, I can't wait for ITA, Im sure it's gonna be blast!!!!

God Speed and God Bless....
Good Luck at Pico's Day and have a safe flight....

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-11 08:48:15

Thanks! Kind words sir, I appreciate them :)

TheMadWasp 2013-04-13 09:36:38

Dude! This is great, I didn't think there was going to be another one, I always thought Stealing the Diamond was the finale, glad your making ITA.
I might watch your time lapse, I've got work to do though, so I'll talk to you later.
P.S: Hope you enjoy Pico day.

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-13 09:36:38

Thanks I hope so too! I ended up coming up with enough material for another one.

mikkmar 2013-04-22 12:02:36

Erm, so it's the Stealing the Diamond story now? So Escaping the Prison is Stealing the diamond -1? No offence. Just thought the story had an actual name.

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-22 12:02:36

No I say Stealing the Diamond sequel because it's a sequel to that game. It's still part of the Henry Stickmin series.

mikkmar 2013-04-24 10:09:05

This is a bit late for certain reasons, but I thought it was called the Henry Stick series or something.

PuffballsUnited 2013-04-24 10:09:05

Yeah you're right.
