Yes, our Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign to raise $1,000 to make Frog's Princess accessible for readers with hearing impairments and visual impairments has succeeded!

So, now, with 10 days to go, we're thinking...  hmm, we don't know much about colour vision deficiency, but let's find out!  We should be able to make special fonts to suit readers with color deficiencies for $500 (this includes paying the quality assurers who have different color vision deficiencies).  Let's have a go at raising a further $500.

Singer, songwriter and artist Rhubee Neale travelled to AVCon from Alice Springs to see her son Arthur Ah Chee's installation in the Indie Games Room.  She stopped by to play Frog's Princess.  Rhubee's Facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/rhubee.neale.singer.painter/

We were honoured to be one of the six games selected for the Obscure Games Room at AVCon.

Here are Priscilla Ah Chee and her mother Rhubee Neale playing Frog's Princess in the Obscure Games Room.

Funny story: Sebastian Demoulin took on the job of helping show Frog's Princess at AVCon on the weekend.  He helped a 5-year-old who was keen to play but couldn't manage the trackpad. The boy was keen so Seb played with him for over 20 minutes, until a touchpad screen became free and he played on that until his parents finally managed to drag him away. Later I remembered I'd updated the game the night before so the little boy could have used the arrow key.

Yes, we will by trying again, this time to get funding to finish the game with US and UK versions, a version for players with hearing impairment, and a version for players with vision impairment.  You never know till you try!

 At last we can tell you a secret we have known for weeks!  Frog's Princess was one of thirty games selected to be shown in the Indie Games Room at AVCON, Adelaide's Anime and Video Games Festival in July.

Here is a link to the promotional trailer.  We are on at 1:16 for 8 seconds.

Christian has done it again, wowing us with another character theme.  This one is a powerhouse for Iron Henry.  The video shows the pivotal moment at the beginning of the story where Iron Henry protects Prince Francis from being imprisoned by the Witch, at great cost to himself.  The music grows in strength and grandeur but we don't want to create a spoiler video for that part!

Kathy was honoured to be accepted as an exhibitor to the Resilient Kids conference in Clovercrest, Adelaide.

One of the things our Quality Assurers Phillip Cook and David Francis mentioned was the need for a tutorial.  And now...  We have one!
