ANTONBLAST is 20% off for today's Daily Deal! (+ FIRST MAJOR UPDATE!)

Hey punks, It's been a bit, hasn't it? The fine folks at Valve have asked us if we'd like for Anton to partake in their Daily Deal. Thankfully, he granted us power of attorney a long time ago, so once we were able to straggle him down long enough to be sedated, we figured "Why not?" As a result, ANTONBLAST is now 20% off for a limited time! If for whatever reason you were on the fence (why?), or you just have some friends you feel like giving the game to (lucky them), now would be the time to do it. I'm even okay with you giving me a bit less money for it right now. "But a plain old discount surely isn't news!" I hear you cry. Personally, I think it is, but don't worry: there's more. Today we've also launched our FIRST MAJOR UPDATE. It's live on Steam right now! It's absolutely gargantuan and covers a lot of issues we(you) had with the game... PLUS some new features. That's far from the last update we have planned, though. Stay tuned for more news on that. I'm also proud to say that we're (FINALLY) submitting the ANTONBLAST soundtrack for release today! This has been an incredibly long time coming - sorry - but I can promise you it's worth it. Each track has been fully remixed from the ground up from its original version in the game, meaning these are the DEFINITIVE versions with improved mixing + mastering, and even some never-before-heard sections. Accept no imitators! Steam requires us to keep the OST store page visible for a few weeks prior, so if you see it ahead of time but can't purchase... that's why. We can't make it go any quicker, sorry! I'll let Alex take the patch notes away below... Until next time, punks. - Tony Grayson Studio Head | Summitsphere

ANTONBLAST is releasing November 12!

As announced earlier today... ANTONBLAST is releasing November 12! That's all. Oh, and an updated Dynamite Demo is now available. Check it out!

[ 2024-04-17 18:32:16 CET ] [ Original post ]

Introducing the Dynamite Demo: Part 2 Update!

WELCOME BACK, BLASTERS! Today we have some pretty hefty announcements for you! Big time REVEAL type beats! So without further ado: strap in folks, this is gonna be a LONG ONE! Or a TALL ONE? (Youll get it in a bit!)

ANTONBLAST is coming in 2024!

First and foremost, were announcing that ANTONBLAST will not be releasing in 2023. However, while we realize it isn't what everyone would want, this is actually phenomenal news for a few reasons. Last year, as we were preparing to roll back into production after our Kickstarter campaign, we were met with an opportunity to work with a partner on expanding the resources available to the game, and it was an offer we could not refuse. It took some time after that to negotiate and square things away, but together with a new financial partner, we were able to add an extensive amount of time to the games schedule. Thanks to this, we were able to commit more time to a second pre-production phase of sorts to really nail down everything we wanted to accomplish with ANTONBLAST. While we had a very clear vision of a specific type of game on our Kickstarter pitch, and we knew that the version of the game we would have released this Fall would have been an excellent homage and spiritual successor to its influences, and ultimately a pretty dang good game the thing this phase really allowed us to do was question everything, scrutinize everything, and come out the other side with a fundamentally better game foundation. Importantly, it also let us zero in on what the game is and is not. What felt wrong, what felt right. It allowed us to be significantly more confident in our vision and our ability to deliver on it. We were able to let the game evolve itself naturally and become more than it could ever have been with one year of production.

What that means:

Were now able to deliver better animations, better environments, better game feel, better levels, better spectacle, better everything. Bigger bosses, crazier set pieces, overall just a much more complete experience in the ANTON universe. Weve been able to bring on additional staff, as well, making sure every part of the game gets its individual attention and care to the fullest.

What that does NOT mean:

DLC and other stretch goals being added retroactively. We made the decision very quickly after signing with our partner to focus our additional resources on creation and polish of the features and modes that we finished our campaign with in 2022. This does not mean that DLC may not be possible post-launch, but after a hefty amount of consideration, we decided it was best to funnel the funds into the core experience. Our plans for potential future DLC are essentially full sub-campaigns for those characters, and we want them to be full experiences of their own, not have the main game and the DLC compromise each other.

What else this doesn't mean:

Answering to a publisher. That's right we don't have a publisher. One wonderful thing about the partnership we've forged is that SUMMITSPHERE will remain the owner and publisher of ANTONBLAST! We own our characters, our worlds, our game, and our IP. We make the decisions on launches, features, timing, and control the whole thing. Our partner is just crazy enough to support us financially and make sure we have the runway to do all the dumb stuff we want to do, and that we have the resources and time to make the best game for you. Really though, the best part of all this is that it has allowed ANTONBLAST to evolve into something that is truly its own beast, born both of its inspirations and our disgusting crazy minds. Without fail, at our recent floor shows at PAX East and PAX West, folks are realizing that the games they played as kids (or the indie darlings theyve played this year) traveled a pretty different path than we ultimately chose to travel ourselves but they also realize how crazy, fun, and frenetic ANTONBLAST truly is. Were thrilled with the reception to the game at these live events, and hope youll join us at other events in 2024 to play for yourself! So, youre probably wondering do we have a set release date yet? Well, not quite yet! However, we can tell you that we are on track for a 2024 release, and with our new staff and our capable partners, were excited to nail that date down and let you know as soon as possible. You will hear more about the specific timing next year. In the meantime, we're going to be really ramping up our visibility going into 2024, showing more features and content than ever before, and additionally ramping up our studio presence in fun and exciting ways as well. That reminds us!

Bigger Resources, Louder Voice

One of the other key benefits to having our partners is that we are able to put more eyes on ANTONBLAST going forward. In fact, their assistance has already shown big dividends for the fan community, allowing us to do big conventions like PAX West last month. It also allows us to create more things like our DYNAMITE DEMO Trailer this past June at the Guerrilla Collective Showcase, and the Dynamite Demo itself. We're pleased to announce that it also looks like fans can look forward to more Live Action Anton in 2024, as well. As soon as we nail down his contract. He wandered off set that day and has only been communicating via booze signals. They're like smoke signals but instead of using fire and smoke, he just drinks a lot and screams. Sometimes we hear it and sometimes we don't. He doesn't seem to understand how sound works. We'll also be appearing at some of your favorite floor shows next year, and we may just pop up on some live shows as well. Who knows? Either way... the question remains: What kind of wild and wacky shenanigans can SUMMITSPHERE get up to next year to promote ANTONBLAST? I guess you'll just have to find out! Now... let's get down to some NEW REVEALS from the game!

It's finally time to MEET THE BOSSBUSTERS!

This week, we launched our "MEET THE BOSSBUSTERS" Trailer on all socials, and additionally launched a new soundtrack upload. What soundtrack? Well, the BOSSBUSTER THEME, of course! (Word of warning: This is probably Tony's most insane track yet.) [previewyoutube=vcPxHhwdkZk;full][/previewyoutube] [previewyoutube=mbQGvGOvLAM;full][/previewyoutube]

So, who are the BOSSBUSTERS?

The Bossbusters (known officially as the Bucket Brigade) are an elite squad of four: they're the Ballbusters every Ballbuster wants to be! They're also Satan's most trusted moles in his Ballbuster Army. Not that that means he trusts them a LOT... it's just he trusts them the most. Initially revealing themselves to the player in the first level by pursuing them on their Bucket Brigade Blimp, these highest tier moles will cause Anton and Annie a lot of grief over the course of the adventure.

TALLBUSTER is the newest recruit to the Bossbuster Brigade, and he really isn't too invested in the outcome, honestly. In fact, when Anton and Annie confront him, he initially doesn't even want to fight! Content to just sit in his custom hot tub and chill, it isn't until our Dynamite Duo cast the first stone that Tallbuster reveals his true potential. Some say he's really just here to hang out with Smallbuster. What's their deal anyways?

SMALLBUSTER may be the smallest bodied of all the Bossbusters, but she's also the biggest brained. It's all relative, though. Faced with defeating Anton and Annie, Smallbuster realizes her small frame will likely get her quickly eliminated, so she turns to her truest love trash. Living in a dimensional dump between the realms, Smallbuster uses the discarded belongings of the universe to create powerful mechs that do all the heavy lifting of battle for her. As long as she's got her garbage, she's unstoppable! She's never far from Tallbuster on group missions. Seriously, what's their deal?

MAULBUSTER is the Matriarch of the Bossbuster Brigade. A cultured, classically trained actor whose mind is a steel trap, she keeps the entire Ballbuster Army in check. Her only problem is her complicated and to-the-letter plans sometimes go awry, so when Anton and Annie refuse to follow the script, she just might get caught flubbing her lines. Eh, they're all in Mole language anyways.

BRAWLBUSTER is a BIG SUMBITCH. A pumped up powerhouse of a pro-wrestler who missed the memo that it's a staged performance, Brawlbuster is ready to throw down with Anton and Annie and hit 'em for real! Can they stop his hulking mass, BROTHER, or will he secure the 1-2-3? Yeah!

OH, ONE MORE THING

Remember how we mentioned demoing ANTONBLAST on show floors? Well, some of you whove been following along extra closely may have realized that convention goers were able to play an updated version of the demo that better represents our vision for the final game. This week, we brought The Dynamite Demo: Part 2 to Steam! Its live now, waiting for you to play it. Go on, try it out! Tell your friends! Its just that much better than Part 1. Some of the changes you can look forward to include:

Increased clutch boost window
A more reactive camera
Tighter physics
Less hearts, more checkpoints (trust us, its great)
New voicelines for Anton and Annie
Refurbished level design
And more!

Conclusion

Whew! So that was a lot of new information. We thank you for your continued patience as we work away on the game, and we thank you for your continued support! Without your help, ANTONBLAST and SUMMITSPHERE wouldn't be where we are today. We continue to make strides to grow, and ANTONBLAST looks to be the best game it can be as a result. Look forward to our next update probably sooner than you think!

ANTONBLAST is a fast-paced explosive action platformer that's all about destruction. Play as the enraged Dynamite Anton (or his cranked-out coworker Annie) and use your Mighty F’n Hammer to demolish bizarre worlds, tussle with screen-filling bosses, and steal your Spirits back from Satan!

That's right: Satan himself has stolen Anton's prized Spirit collection, and he'll stop at nothing to get it back. Thankfully, the local disgraced casino owner, Brulo, has his own beef with Satan, and he's willing to put aside his differences with Anton to make that devil pay.

Your mission in every level is simple: SET Brulo's Detonators, FIND Anton's Spirit, and ESCAPE before Happy Hour ends!

BLAST through a unique powertrip of a platformer!
INDULGE in an urban graffiti-inspired art style!
DEMOLISH massive destructible environments!
BATTLE brutal, earthshaking bosses!
EXPERIMENT with a totally dynamic playstyle; rush through for the best time or explore at your own pace!
