Llamasoft does TxK for Sony Vita

[PVB]

Jeff Tweeted this last night:

TxK is nearly done now. All content is in, really am now just tidying up stuff.

[Misfit]

Good news indeed.

Is this going to be download only or can we physically buy it too?

[PVB]

That's probably down to Sony, but I expect it'll be via the PSN Store.

After seeing that Angry Birds on Vita was going to retail for $35/£35, Yak did say he expected that TxK would sell for around £10, so that'd make it d/l only I reckon.

I'm more interested in the possibility of a PS4 release. Still can't quite bring myself to pull the trigger on Vita.

Impressive visuals...




...the new glasses really suit you Jeff, take years off you IMO.

Have someone written elsewhere that Yak's on Slashdot?

Saw that. It's why I'm feeling optimistic about TxK on the big screen.

Now that November has started I've remembered that my Vita TV should be shipped soon, has there been any implementation of alternative control schemes for thing like the supertapper that map it to a button press, or are you thinking that you may have to add some tweaks later in a patch, if at all

Surely Shahid can sort you out with a VitaTV to make sure that it's the best experience that it can be for it (having said that, I wonder what they're doing about development for it, i'll have to see if it's as simple as the newer SDK letting you pair a Dualshock to a devkit and just pretending it's a VitaTV, that would make the most sense now that i think about it

Also beware "the thing is locked now" there's not going to be "much" tweaks/additions now, we are going to soon be ready to submit for Q & A ..

I just finished to read *ALL* the relevant documentation and made my own "checkpoints list" and I am already a bit in trouble with a couple of little thingies that bother me a bit.

Sounds like some stuff about online/not online it's a bit "pedantic", I am literally "discussing with Sony techs" about "do you really want this thing to behave like that ?".

( things that should happen when you are not connected on line and I attempt to record a score, if we'll end up with a 'pedantic behavior' don't blame me is like 'it has to be' ... ).

My wifi/broadband is rock solid, so I've not played a game yet that's failed to upload scores/trophies, but maybe other on here have and can let us know what other games do when that happens?

You mean you never played a game OUTSIDE the house where there is NO network at all ?

Well, a few games I tried seems to go "by the book" so what happens is :

1. you try to record a score

2. there is no network

3. a warning appears telling you there is no network and offering you options to try to connect or do not connect

4. if you selected 'yes' and there's no connection go back to 3

5. if you select 'no' open another warning telling you what features you will miss with no network and then continue ( i.e. tell "I am sorry your score won't be saved online" ) or some crap like that

Now I am/was hoping you can avoid all that all time there's no network but I am still seeing if I can discuss something but I believe that is "what by the book" has to be.

[edit] - actually I just saw that Super Stardust Delta does a bit different which is exactly what I had in mind to do and which is exactly what I did ask about "could be good to do it as that ?".

So I suppose that when/if they say me "yes" I will do it that way.

i.e. Super Stardust seems to do as that :

1. game starts
2. there is no net
3. a dialog appear saying 'network features will be disabled'
4. there is a button somewhere in the menu to allow you to try a login any time you want

TBH I think you're worrying unnecessarily giles. The "by the book" way is the way most games do it, it's what users expect and it works.

I'd save yourself a lot of time and effort getting Sony to agree to something else and do it the "by the book" way.
