6/2/11 - Ballads of Reemus production is in high gear with Jay and Steve both making huge progress on it. We’ve updated the progress timeline graphic. Jay’s latest YouTube video showcases his excellent work on the cutscenes, including the first released clip of Reemus’ voice played by Josh Tomar AKA TomaMoto of NewGrounds’ fame. We’re also expecting first pass programming to be done on the entire game as soon as next week! (To get more details on that, jump to the progress timeline’s forum topic.) We’ve released 2 new screenshots from Ballads in light of our recent progress.

If you have a BlackBerry PlayBook, you’ll be happy to know that you can now play Several Journeys of Reemus on your tablet! Right now Chapters 0 and 1 are available to download, and the rest are submitted and awaiting approval. This includes The Several Journeys of Reemus: Chapter 4 – The Beastly Blackhole of Bureaucracy, optimized for the PlayBook, which you’ll be able to buy as soon as it gets approved by BlackBerry! Ballads of Reemus will also be on there soon as part of the whole BlackBerry package, so PlayBook development is a crucial part of our plan to get Ballads live! Visit our BlackBerry PlayBook Games page for the full list of tablet games as they become available. Be sure to follow the links to rate and comment on your experience of them.
