GagaMan from The Dreamcast Junkyard just informed us that he and his team made a video review of Wind and Water: Puzzle Battles that also shows a lot of the gameplay and game modes that can’t be explained that easy by text reviews.

Thanks so much GagaMan, we really appriciate it!

Hiermit liefern wir euch ein paar Fotos von der olymptronica 2009 vorletztes Wochenende nach. Lustigerweise konnte man direkt vor dem redspotgames-Stand den MesseTurm Frankfurt sehen, welcher der zweit größte Wolkenkratzer in Europa ist. In unserer Halle war das PES-Turnier von Konami am Laufen und mit einer Cosplay- und Dance-Dance-Revolution-Runde war ein breit gefächertes Publikum anwesend.

Grüße und Dank geht an den CSW-Verlag, die M!Games-Crew, AirMotion, allen interessierten Besuchern und Dreamcast-Veteranen, den Besuchern unseres Vortrags “Kommerzielle Entwicklungen auf alternativen Plattformen” sowie natürlich vielen, vielen Dank an die Veranstalter!

Nun aber zu den Fotos:

(English summary: Here are some impressions from the olymptronica 2009 the weekend before last one in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Funny coincidence: When you were in front of our booth you could see the “MesseTurm”, second largest skycraper in Europe. And that was the only place in the complete building where you could see it.)

Yuan Works and redspotgames are happy to present you the new “Wind and Water: Puzzle Battles” website! Same URL, same game, yet it has new content about the game system, story, packaging and even reveals extras such as wallpapers or a music medley.

To give you a deeper insight into the gameplay, a new promotion trailer has been uploaded to the website and YouTube, too.

Also, this major update is dedicated to the 10th Birthday of the Dreamcast that took place in November 2008 (same month when “Wind and Water: Puzzle Battles” came out). This means, we have a full year to celebrate! Happy 10th Birthday, beloved friend!

Benzaie from “Games That You Might Don’t Know” (GTYMDK) was kind enough to make a video review of “Wind and Walter: Puzzle Battles” for the January issue of his video review series on “That Guy with the Glasses”. Sorry that it took a while until we have informed you about this nice video.

You can directly watch it here or on the official website at thatguywithglasses.com or on blip.tv. Maybe we’re even uploading it on YouTube.

Sega, Nintendo, Konami, Atari, Activision, um nur einige zu nennen: Die olymptronica, das “Festival der Videospielkulturen”, hatte letztes Jahr nicht nur namhafte Hersteller angelockt, sondern auch mit einem frischen Konzept überzeugt.

Die relativ junge Messe geht dieses Jahr in eine neue Runde. Sie findet nächstes Wochenende, am 7. und 8. März 2009, im Campus Westend (Casinogebäude) in Frankfurt am Main statt. Und dieses Mal sind wir auch mit von der Partie.

Am redspotgames-Stand erwarten euch neben unseren Titeln “Wind and Water: Puzzle Battles” und “Last Hope” zum Anspielen auch kurze Lehrgänge zum Spielesystem von “Wind and Water: Puzzle Battles”, sowie die Möglichkeit, im Versus gegen die redspotgames-Crew anzutreten. Zusätzlich haben wir als kleinen Bonus noch ein paar Poster dabei - lasst euch überraschen, welche!

Samstag-Abend gegen 22 Uhr gibt es schließlich noch auf der Aftershow-Party eins auf die Ohren: Mit den Electroacts “DJ Biffy”, dem DJ-Team “Cyco” und „You Love Her Coz Shes Dead” aus London.

Mehr Informationen gibt es auf www.olymptronica.de - wir würden uns auf euch freuen!

Wie noch letzten Monat angekündigt, haben wir uns mit dem ersten offiziellen “Wind and Water: Puzzle Battles”-Tunier am 20.12.2008 in den Weihnachts- und Neujahrsurlaub verabschiedet. Dieses Event fand in den Verkaufsräumen von unseren Kollegen von Wunderlampe - Videospiele-Lounge & Store - in Nürnberg statt. Besonderes Schmankerl: Der weltweit bekannte Christkindlesmarkt Nürnberg war nur 500 Meter entfernt und lud zu einem heißen Glühwein zur kalten Jahreszeit ein.

Herzlichen Glünschwunsch an die Gewinner des ersten bis dritten Platz und viel Spaß mit den Dreamcast-Spielen und -Zubehör! Ebenfalls vielen, vielen Dank an alle Teilnehmer, die zum Teil einen sehr weiten Anfahrtsweg auf sich genommen haben, ebenso wie Wunderlampe für die tolle Organisation und Durchführung.

Ohne weitere Worte zu verlieren, wollen wir hier ein paar Fotos direkt vom Turnier präsentieren.
