Wrestling MPire 2008 Update


Indie developer Mat Dickie's latest game, Wrestling MPire 2008 is almost complete. I've been watching the development of his latest game since it was announced and it certainly looks like a lot of improvements have been made. I just wish he'd switch to a different game engine because he's capable of a lot more with the right set of tools..
I'm a sucker for his wrestling games, so please indulge me as I share his thoughts on the final leg of this game's development:

"After 6 long months of solid work, I'm pleased to announce that the game is practically complete! I say "practically" because having a finished game in your hands is just the beginning. I've still got to re-write the instruction manuals and finalize some other presentational details. Plus I'll need the few remaining days of January for some intensive testing to make sure everything pans out properly. The single biggest development that has brought us to this point is that all 200 characters are present and correct. If you're curious to know who made the cut, where they ended up, and what they look like, look no further than this huge cast list montage. Imagine making all of those on your own in just 2 weeks! The standard is pretty high this time too - with much more thought going into who's there and what their role is. Head over to the site for more info about that, and shots of a few other things. All of which you'll be able to experience yourself - in addition to your own stories - when the game is released a couple of weeks from now... "


Can't wait to try this one out. The last game was pretty cool.
