When I designed Caboodle I built in a scripted skin system, this allows me to change the game quite dramatically with minimal fuss.

I was going to release the skin packs as add on's but thought "hey, lets release totally seperate products!" - everyone else is :)

So.... Caboodle went underwater.... and became... c'Bubble

Next.. Caboodle goes to the moon... and becomes.. Umm Dunno yet!

Moon poodle. At least it rhymes.

It rhymes?

You might want to wait a little before actually releasing this. Won't it cannibalize your Caboodle sales?


TartanTangerine (was Indiepath)(Posted 2005) [#9]
I don't think so, this will appeal to a wider audience than caboodle does.


big10p(Posted 2005) [#10]
How? it's the same game.


TartanTangerine (was Indiepath)(Posted 2005) [#11]

Is it? If it's the same game then why is it generating more interest with the major distis than the old one? This version has more appeal, it's more "marketable".


big10p(Posted 2005) [#12]
Oh, OK. It's just that in your first post you say it's Caboodle with a new skin. i.e. the same game with a new paintjob.


TartanTangerine (was Indiepath)(Posted 2005) [#13]
Heh, it is the same game :D But for some reason people don't seem to see past the GFX.


Genexi2(Posted 2005) [#14]

Yeah, but I must say though, the skin you created for c'Bubble is alot more appealing then Caboodles.


Warren(Posted 2005) [#15]
And people say graphics don't matter.

*whistles while walking away*

It does look really nice. Thats a clever approach to marketing, try more than one look to see what sells best!

Extreme nitpicking: your indipath mouseover logo at the bottom of the page doesn't line up. when it turns orange on the mouseover, the 'guy' moves a pixel to the side, and a thin grey line appears under the logo as well.

Nice new skin!
Although I prefered the original theme and music. :)

Website looks fine in Firefox.

Thanks the line is an IE alpha channel problem - Fixed it. But the guy don't move, maybe you have a CRT display and the increase in intensity makes it looks like it moves.

Oh, I uploaded a new version, this version no longer shares the highscore database with Caboodle, it has its own. I also took away the mouse control 'cause it was really crap.

With Caboodle, of course =]
