A trailer for Seasons, and a new title
As many indie developers (and a lot of talented ones) did this year, we entered the 13th Independant Games Festival with Seasons and a trailer :
That’s it, Seasons now has a full title : Seasons after Fall.
We think it represents what the game is in term of both gameplay and “universe”. Hope you’ll like it !
If you’re a newcomer here and you didn’t visit the game page already, here is what we are talking about :
– – – – – – –
Seasons after Fall is a puzzle / platform 2D game in wich the player, as a wild fox, travels across the countryside, through forests and rivers, taking advantage of the changing seasons.
The player can switch between seasons at any place, any time, and see how it dynamically affects the environment : freeze rivers in winter, grow trees in summer and disperse spores using the wind in autumn.
He can also interacts with other animals : they will help him explore more places and find secret ones thanks to their unique abilities.

Seasons after Fall will be available on PC / Mac / Linux in 2011.
For a possible release on consoles, we’ll need more love from you, the players, and from the consoles manufacturers.
@Michael : Thanks for your support ! We hope Linux gamers will like the game. We don’t know exactly how the ubuntu software center works right now but we will take some info about it. Thanks again.
Congratulations, This game is an amazing release. You have amazing support from the linux community. Keep the work going this game will be amazing, please include it in the ubuntu software center.
@z0rit0:
thanks for noticing this RSS vs. website publication problem. In fact it’s my fault because I don’t know how to press (or not to press) a button. So I pressed the publish button by mistake and the article was sent to the RSS feeder 🙂
It was a kind of “RSS exclusive” 🙂 With a lot of WIP sentences!
@Sylvain
Merci Sylvain !
A ce que je vois, tu fais aussi dans le renard 🙂
Comment as tu découvert le site ? (je suis curieux ^^).
A la revoyure, je suivrais avec attention ton site.
Je viens de découvrir ce jeu, vous tenez un joli projet. Porté sous linux en plus de tout ça … Il me le faut ! En plus je sais pas trop pourquoi mais j’ai bien envie de le montrer à mes clients ! 😉
Bravo à toute l’équipe, sacré boulot, sacré concept !
Hi
Just in case you have not noticed the problem yet: Your new article “Seasons after Fall: spritesheet animation” appears in the RSS but not on the site.
And by the way it is great!! Thanks a lot for spending the time to give such good explanations.
Hey,
I recently tried the game in its alpha version. I can tell it’s great! I really loved it. Kind of a new-gen game to me. No gore killings, no weapon seeking to kill-em-all. I really liked it and hope it will be a success for Swing Swing — it would be the first one, would’nt it? I prefer computer games more than Xbox ones, but have nothing to say about the possibility for an indie game creator like you to work with Microsoft. Except that they can be a bit nasty with you…
Good luck,
Thank to Nemo for letting me trying the game!
Niiiiice, I like retro 8bits style 🙂
Hi Guillaume

I like this idea a lot! Alternating silence and music cleverly can really build up a very nice game atmosphere. Contrary to an annoying loop in the background!
Thanks for your nice feedback about Dino Legs! About the graphics I’m currently working on enhancing them a little. But fear not: there will still be an option to go back to the 8bit era style in its full glory 😉
Hi zOritO:
We will try to keep this aspect in the game: musical silence expect on special occasions, and then BAM: we launch the music.
By the way, I see you are the one behind Dino Legs, a game that William make me discover. And I like to tell you that game make me laugh a lot. I especially love the retro style (Atari 2600 enhanced!). Thanks for that crazy game.
Hello ZE Captain Tabasco 🙂
Thanks for your support.
Go go Nemoïd Studio!

T’as vu comment je parle bieng l’anglais 🙂
Je connaissais pas The Byrds, la honte. Mais c’est pas mal, c’était #1 en 1965 d’après youtube ! Ca devait se tirer la bourre avec The Beatles !
Ca donne faim ce trailer, je sais pas pourkoi !
manquerai que la musiques des Byrds, to Everything There Is A Season pour accompagner le jeu, et c le rève !
vivement le béta test !
Congratulations for the trailer !
I like how it’s starting in a very quiet way with just the sounds of the game and then switching to the music. Bringing a very interesting atmosphere that fits perfectly in my opinion.
Can’t wait for the demo !!
Thanks all of you for your support.
We will try not disappoint you!
See you soon my friends 🙂
@MaximB: yes for sure, we will contact you when we feel that’s it’s the good time! Thanks for your linux gaming website.
@L4Linux: I’m not very familiar with Linux world, so thanks for pointing Ubuntu Software Center. My Debian is so old… I must install new one soon, and maybe I will make a switch to Ubuntu since it seems the most used distribution for Linux gaming!
This game looks promising.
Even better if it’s made available with an Ubuntu repository. 🙂
Good job ! 😉
Hâte d’en voir plus
La bande son du trailer colle super bien, la guitare, les harmoniques, le bruit des déplacements sur le manche, finalement c’est rare ce coté un peu brute ! ça pose vraiment très bien l’ambiance et le rythme, c’est votre renard qui doit être content!
J’aime beaucoup, j’espère que ce n’est pas que pour le trailer. En tout cas le passage des bruitages à la musique et réciproquement me semble très bien marché.
Que les courants marins vous soient favorable !
Looks fun and creative. Please make it available through Ubuntu Software Center.
Can’t wait 🙂
Ça a l’air vraiment chouette ! Et merci pour le port Tux, je vais me ruer dessus à sa sortie 🙂
It’s a shame as you could use the built in features for your advantage… but as long as it runs on GNU/Linux I’m good 😉
Maybe we setup an interview when you be ready ?
Thank you for the article 🙂
Just to be clear, we use Blender to make arts and levels, but we don’t use its game engine.
As promised some time ago, I’ve posted an article for you here :

Keep the good work !
J’aime beaucoup les castors ils ont une bonne tête 🙂
(oui, je sais mon commentaire ne sert à rien, mais maintenant tout le monde va savoir que j’aime les castors…)
Vivement la démo jouable !
Oouh yeah:
$wing $wing $ubmarine
(I never think of that! So now it’s official, there are more money in the name of the company than in our poket ^^)
(and yeah I speak english like an idiot :], in a french cow style)
Vous prenez un autre $ et ça vous fera $$$ > Swing Swing Submarine.
Envoyez-nous la photo.
idem : Il faut que je fasse quoi pour y jouer sur la X360 ? Que je me mette tout nue dans la rue avec le signe $ tatoué sur le torse ?
Très chouette latrame sonore !
Hâte de pouvoir jouer !
Bon courage pour la suite et bonne chance pour le Festival !

Yeah! Super! C’est un travail bien cool avec de bons puzzles en perspective.
Boh travail!
