Hoard: PS3 and PSP Dragon Combat Hits PSN this September

Hi Jeigh — HOARD isn’t in the mini program. It’s a standard “full-size?” PSN game for PS3 and PSP.

Howdy! We’ll definitely be getting some footage out within the next couple weeks. The game will be @ E3 so I suspect some video will come out of that as well. Thanks for the interest!

>>looks like something I can play in spurts

Definitely! Most of the levels play in 10 minutes or less. It is structured as a score attack game–not dissimilar to something like Shatter, PJ Shooter, or Geometry Wars in terms of short-burst play. Of course, those short bursts can add up to hours pretty fast…:)

Hi Ashenshugura,

Two of the modes are timed–“Treasure Hoard” (collect as much treasure as you can) and “Princess Rush” (be the first to ransom X princesses).

One of the modes is “Survival”, which is not timed–you have to hold out as long as you can.

We’ll look at a possible freeform upon unlock!

Howdy!

–1080p support is planned for release
–Local multiplayer is full-screen with dynamic zoom
–The music and sound are being composed by a Vancouver artist by the name of Adriane Lake. We already have about 50% of the sounds and they are awesome!
–In addition to trophies, the game will feature dozens of badges which feed into Hoard Rankings, which are basically levels for your dragon profile. Many of the badges will require replay of various levels, but can’t comment on the trophies just yet!
–There are some additional shaders and spec-mapping that will be added, but I’d say the graphics are at 85%. Some additional dynamic lights will likely be included–we already have dynamic lighting from fireballs and fire arrows.

Thanks for the interest!

Can’t confirm 4 player co-op, but I can confirm 4 player competitive as well as 4 player team (2 dragons per team).
