I wrote to GameinABottle and heard back from the owner/developer. That was really nice. now don't you all go flooding him with email, they need time to deliver the promised games.
He says that there is actually two versions of Gemcraft in the pipeline, the one due soon, and the one alluded to at the end of the current version of Gemcraft.
Here is a link to some screenshots and some of the new features in Gemcraft Chapter Zero.
The bad news is that I read from Peter's note that perhaps the release of Gemcraft Chapter Zro will be delayed somewhat beyond the end of January.
We decided to extend the story line backwards a bit, so the next GC will be "GemCraft chapter zero: Gem of Eternity". The sequel "chapter two: Chasing Shadows" mentioned at the end of "chapter one: The Forgotten" will come later this year.
I just put up some screenshots of GC-0, please take a look! We are working hard on it but we game deadlines so many times (and failed of course) that I don't give one anymore. It will be launched on ArmorGames.com when it's ready.
Well, I have to say the artistic style of Gemcraft 0 is actually less appealing than the first. Hope it has some major gameplay improvements to make up for it.
Thanks for sharing the info! I think the screen shots look pretty sick! It looks like we can send more than one wave at a time, which will definitely be better! The idea about the "gem sacrifice" sounds insetting as well. I hope it comes out soon!!!
