Although we\u2019ve done lot of interviews, closed testing, public testing and iteration cycles, it still is a risky approach when we bet on one card. Unfortunately, we haven\u2019t won in the \u201cApp Store lottery\u201d which was an expensive lesson learned. With this knowledge, we teamed up with with <a title=\"Lukas Korba - website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lukaskorba.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lukas Korba<\/a> to develop a very low cost game called <a title=\"Octagon microsite\" href=\"http:\/\/www.octagongame.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Octagon<\/a> few months ago. This time we did several rounds of testing with our target group recruited from hard-core members from the <a href=\"http:\/\/forums.toucharcade.com\/showthread.php?t=208609\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TouchArcade forum<\/a> and the average 4.5 star rating with positive revenue shows us that we have successful results.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We take Orc\u2019s Arena even further. The idea came from our main coder Petr Kolda, who was able to create 90% of the game prologue on his own using assets from the Unity Store and his own skills in 3D software and animations. We kicked-off only a short single player prologue and multiplayer mode with basic skills and weapons upgrades. Now we want to collect everyone\u2018s feedback first:\u00a0 is the genre attractive, is our humor of good taste, is the design good enough? And most important are the gesture controls natural and is the game fun to play?<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Leave your feedback and help us develop the other way!<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Orc\u2019s Arena for Leap Motion: <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Orc\u2019s Arena for classic controls: <\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today we\u2019ve launched a unique project, Orc\u2019s Arena.
