Iron Snout - SnoutUp


Hello, iron snouts!

Hope you're doing well and your fingers aren't completely tired from all the button mashing! I would like to ask you to use them for one more mouse click, which would help to get another pig fighting game on Steam!

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=926050663

Bacon May Die is a side-scrolling beat em up which mixes up melee fighting and gun play in an accessible and enjoyable way. Think Iron Snout, but this time with actual movement! And just like Iron Snout it has over-the-top cartoon violence and every move is a fighting move. That's how I like them!

So, please, leave a vote, so this piggy could pass the Greenlight before it closes its doors (yup, Greenlight will be no more soon) - I'm worried that I might not be able to afford Steam Direct fee later.

Do you have an idea for a gun? Melee weapon? A silly outfit? Gameplay mechanic? Enemy type? Environmental kill? Then leave a comment or write me directly: snoutupgames@gmail.com!

Thank you!

P.s. Thanks to all your support Iron Snout got a mention in Kotaku for being one of the best rated games on Steam! It made my day - you're all awesome!

Hey, bacon heroes!

This time I have good and bad news to Apple users. The good news is... I released the updated version of Iron Snout to iTunes, so you can grab your iPhones or iPads and control the piggy with swipes & taps, which can be very satisfying!

Get it here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/iron-snout+/id1162897879

Share it around with friends who would enjoy snout kicking! These mobile releases are the only way I earn a bit of money from my game development, so getting more players in them is important, but also very hard to do alone.

The Android version has already been downloaded more than 5000 times, which is super awesome!

Now, the bad news...
I still can't release updated Mac version. I now have an access to the hardware needed, but it looks like there are big crash-y buggy issues related to latest GameMaker:Studio and Mac OSX (maybe only Sierra, I still don't know). I'm in contact with GM developers and hopefully we will find a solution soon.

Hope to bring you good news in the near future! I'll try to get my new game ready for Greenlight this year, so keep your eyes open for that one!

See you later! Have a great day!

Hey, pork-fu masters!

After a long delay an updated mobile version with most of Steam goodies (graphical upgrades, both areas and all enemies) are available for Android devices!

Download steamed Iron Snout+ here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.snoutup.ironsnoutsteamed

If you have an older Android device (2-3+ years) let me know how well it runs Iron Snout, because I tried my best to keep the performance up.

iOS update together with OSX update for Steam will be next, but I can't give you exact time frame just yet - still don't have access to a Mac to build that stuff on.

---
Bonus news!
I'm making a new game and would love to hear your thoughts about it. It's a tiny RPG autorunner with tons of character outfits (the thing which was missing in Iron Snout), a lot of fighting and with even more silliness. Should I put it on Steam? Try it out and let me know:

Hello, iron snouters!

new area (let's call it Wolf City) just went live to public! Thank you all for waiting and thanks to all, who helped to test it in beta.

* only in Windows version at the moment, Linux should go live this week and OS X update be delayed for a longer while

Here's a short version of the "what's new list":

  • City area is new
  • New wolves (skateboarder, footballer, Wolfie Cyrus, shielded wolf)
  • New outfits for basic wolves
  • Weapons will now break after one strike, but pierce multiple enemies
  • New leaderboards
  • 9 new achievements!
  • Your old scores can be seen in "HISTORY"
  • Bug fixes

Click "HISTORY" below the highscore table to see how you did previously:



Can't promise that everything works perfectly and I doubt that I'll manage to fix that "statistic glitch" which happened a lot, so if you'll discover any new/old bugs, contact me via Twitter or email:

hi@snoutup.com

I hope you'll like new content and features! If you do - recommend Iron Snout to your favorite youtuber or record video yourself! Super appreciate everyone helping out and sharing the game around!

Later!

Hey, wolf hunters!

You can now opt-in in Iron Snout beta channel and try out new level before everybody else does!

Go to game PROPERTIES, BETAS tab and select that beta! Like this:



Game should re-download and you should see level select in the main menu. Try fighting new enemies and let me know if there's something I should fix before completely public release.

If you're not in a mood for beta testing, just wait a couple of days until it goes live for everyone!

Top fight leaderboards will be RESET, because of significant balance changes and there will be new leaderboards for city level only. TOTAL KILLS leaderboard will be removed, because those achievement glitches completely ruined it. Sorry for that.


P.s. I'm recovering well from my injuries mentioned in previous announcement and everything should be just fine!


---

By the way, I'm making a new game, which is about pig (what a surprise!) fighting various enemies with various weapons. At the moment it looks like this:

I really hope you will enjoy it as much as Iron Snout!
