  Paint With Gilbert

  Greetings Dear Gilbert Community! Some of you may remember "Paint With Gilbert". Well, it's back but in a different form. Play With Gilbert should also currently be on sale as well for those interested and Whiskered Away has a presence on Steam in the form of a Store Page with a playable demo! https://store.steampowered.com/app/740040/Play_With_Gilbert__Remake/ {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31069309/e33f683c29d9bc2faa506e342b9cb700bb9b2440.png Paint With Gilbert Returns Paint With Gilbert was released at the time as a small update that added a bit of artistry to the game where players could color blank drawings a small thank you to the community for their support. In that same vein I wanted to express my gratitude to my Patrons who've been supporting me and I decided to bring back Paint With Gilbert, once again, as a thank you! This is once again a free update which the entire community can enjoy! Thank you: Ogre Veronica Adande Brendan Your support means so much to me! While I think it was a fun little thing at the time. the whole mechanic was very cumbersome, tedious to perform and required a lot of patience. Kids and patience don't always go hand in hand too well. I've been wanting to bring it back since I like games that allow players to express themselves in artistic ways. So I sat down and concluded that maybe it'd be fun to be able to literally paint the town red or blue, or pink or whatever color you'd feel like. Yes, even all the colors. Using a tweaked version of the snowball / water balloon fight mechanics I was able to get working prototype going. Various colors to choose from and even special colors such as rainbow effect and random colored paint. You'll be able to paint almost anything (except for certain objects) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31069309/611c68109dc4cad548ba56380d7c0773b64a3490.jpg I created a new level just for this purpose where players can run around and paint the outside of buildings, or the interior of one of the apartments. It's up to the players how an...

  Merry Christmas

  Merry Christmas Everyone First of all I want to wish everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! It's been a little over half a year since the remake was released and it seems pretty much everyone has enjoyed it. Which I am very glad with. It's still not a perfect game (no game ever is) but I've done my best to smoothen things out and improve it here and there. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31069309/e832cb53d6da56e77fa45b04425d65001e409e46.jpg Improvements CatCam activation tweaked - You now have to hold down the CatCam activation button for about a second before it activates. This is to avoid activating it by accident. CatCam thruster speed increased - The thruster speed for the CatCam has been increased in order to travel large distances in less time. Gliders saved per level - Gliders are now saved if you found one in a level. I am working on ways to disable them. On Rainbow Island you can disable it by talking to a Cheep Cheep, will most likely move it over to other levels. Welcome To Rainbow Beach Rainbow Beach is very much an odd choice to release during this time of year but I've been working on it for quite some time now, bit by bit and I really wanted to give something to you guys for Christmas. Rainbow Beach is a new take on the old beach level from the original game. Rainbow Beach introduces new vehicles (Boats, Catski's and a Submarine) as well as new gameplay mechanics. You'll be able to search for treasure chests which may contain catbells or fishies. Some chests are buried and you'll have to find for a big colorful X and dg them up. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31069309/0dfff0452a08fe7413e355236cc8d8a3fabdc39d.jpg And you'll now be able to combine your glider with a big rocket. This combination enables Gilbert & friends to fly through the air. It's quite a lot of fun and I have put rockets in Down Town as well. Rainbow Beach also adds in the Cheep Cheeps. These cute little birds can be found running around. Some can talk to you and help you out or give informatio...

  Halloween Has Arrived!

  Happy Halloween Halloween's being celebrated in Play With Gilbert right now. You'll be able to hear spooky tunes, collect pumpkins instead of fishies and the kitties in the game are wearing their costumes. New content for the game is in the works and a new Gilbert game is being worked on which is very different from the ones I've done so far (more info below). For many people, myself included, the last 2 years have been incredibly taxing to say the least and in an effort to keep doing what I love I've set up a Patreon page to hopefully pull in support for current and future projects that are in development. I'll share more info about that at the end of the news update if you're curious and I think it's pretty interesting. Celebrate Halloween in PWG {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/26803372/de3bf3319bb18653426548b20adf00f9b2ad2092.jpg The Halloween event started on October 24th and with the new update will end on November 4th. I extended the timeslot a bit so that players can enjoy the event just a bit longer. Some of you might have noticed there's an overlap between PWG and Spookity Hollow and that's because the two games share the same base. This also means that your customized kitty can be brought over from Spookity Hollow and vice versa. Meet Skye {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/26803372/246fce1cd3d5f4cf4d71d72d1253c0b16ec45cce.jpg From here on out the default kitties that the game starts with are Gilbert and Skye. Skye is now based after my daughters customized kitten and is going to be Gilbert's little friend. The two of them actually are going to have their own adventure in their own new game! Of course you can still customize Skye and make your own kitty in PWG but it's a small but important tweak. I also fixed a few things in the game that were broken during the engine upgrade (Fairy lights weren't working properly) so there's that. Spookity Hollow For those of you who have missed it, Spookity Hollow has been released which is a standalone game based on the PWG remake project. It's a ...
