HandCircus mobile disco

Well the entire HandCircus East-London studio has migrated temporarily to the sunny shores of San Francisco to spend some quality time with Rolando’s publisher, ngmoco. Progress this week has been amazing, seeing so much refinement and polish being applied to the game, and ironing out of some of the few remaining issues and bugs. We had two-days of focus groups on Monday and Tuesday, which were hugely valuable in getting last minute feedback.

We also now have a localised version of Rolando, and as Chris mentioned over at the ngmoco blog, the little Rolandos look even cuter speaking Japanese :)

Hopefully we will have more details over the coming week or so, but we are still very much on course for a holiday 2008 release.

Kick ass!!! I noticed the ‘zed’ free spelling of civilization, in the trailer. Keep it proper English, its cool to imagine them as little British Rolando’s.
