This one is great.

Rorth, certainly the most fearsome monster in Atic Atac.

Got it. You can have this for nothing:

Bedroom Bellicosity.

(You could go with Bedroom Bellicosity 3D, but it loses some of its power.)

Attack the Attic
At It In The Attic
Attic Escape

Humerous pic linking to Bela Lugosi as Frankenstein deleted by admin. It contained gratuitous jugs.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused in your workplace. I hope you drew the spoiler curtain in time

[mention]redballoon[/mention], have you considered using the unused Knight Lore graphics Tim Stamper put on Twitter, eg:





Or are you sticking strictly to the Atic Atac designs?

We have references to most of the Ultimate games and we’re not just sticking to Atic Atac. In fact, here’s a sneaky peek at just 2 of the wall mounts I’ve created for the game.

There’s going to be 6 of these minimum along with various portraits.

Those unused Knight Lore graphics are aces, but we won’t be using them - only original new graphics only.

Awesome!!!

"Attic Revenge"?

Loft Incursion

I always thought “Wizard’s Lair” would be a good name for this sort of game.

Atic A Trap
Freak Atack
Attic Autarchs
Tayip Ataturk

I have actually been considering getting a loft conversion. If I found a joiner called Attic Attack, or something like that, I'd sign them up in a second.

Basement Fracas
Savage Garrets
Sky Parlor Skirmish

(it's a bit glitchy, but it is from 1973)

atic atac -> @ic @ac

but since you are going 3d vs 2d and @ is shift 2 it becomes

#dic #dac

Garret Attack

Loft Loot
Loft Lifter
Raiders of the Lost Attic

Cata Cita

Small update time. Work continues, though Richard is having a wee holiday. This means I've been working on some more room decor, specifically the portraits - 20 of them, in fact - which will hang on the walls. You'll also see we now have the working trap door.



Here's a closer look at just 4 of the heads (at 400% before I convert them to isometric)


Graphic reveals will probably start to become less now - you're only seeing a small fraction of parts of the portraits, for example - as we'd like to surprise you when you play the final game.

Nice. Is one of those a self portrait?

It looks fabulous.

What platform will it run on?

Be great if this was going to be ported to the Spectrum NEXT!!
