Indie game studio : Turtle Cream

We Changed sever of official blog.

(Sun Park) — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 13:13:02 +0900

We are using our official URL as (www.turtle-cream.com) from last year.

But we used other server address, so only the front page of our blog was linked to that URL.

Finally, we changed server of our official blog to link each posts to our URL.

We are just newbie-indie game developers.

The links from past blog, such as reviews, and other sites' articles are very important to us.

So we will leave this server for a while.

But there won't be any updates.

For updated info, please use this new address to visit our brand new website.

Do you remember the cut scenes at chocolate factory?
We will make a real song for commercial version of Sugar Cube!
It'll be a super cute song. We hope we can introduce this song ASAP.
Here is the lyrics of that song : The sweet song.

---

[Chorus]

Bitter, bitter world
Without chocolate the world is grueling.
Sweet, sweet world
Chocolate is here as a blessing.

I'm the sweetest sugar,
But my life is not as sweet as I am.
My tears are the world's sugar,
But I don't want to cry any more.

[Verse 1]

Eat chocolate when your friends are few,
My sweetness will keep you company.
Eat chocolate when you're feeling blue,
My sweetness will make you happy.

[Verse 2]

Hold back from chocolate for my sake.
For your sweet tooth I give my life.
Hold back your love of sweets and cake.
For that they stab me with a knife.

[Bridge]

You know that life is not always sweet.
After bitterness, sweetness is always sweeter.

Now we are so busy to make new Sugar Cube.
We mentioned it'll be launched on this summer, but it'll be late a little.
We will complete this project at least early September, sorry.

GameSpot has official review to our game Sugar Cube.
Sugar Cube was mentioned with Toys, which is the winner of IGF 2011 student showcase. And this is HD gameplay clip in GameSpot.

We understood their review as "Not bad, but not so good either".
