There is, in fact a video with footage of the gameplay. it was largely what I based my earlier observations on- the video was that of C4 being features at a Gaming Convention, and was being demo'd by a French Guy - who was from Fishing Cactus. The link was:

Great news that it works on Android. The video was interesting too, although I have more questions after watching it. It has made me quite eager to get the game and try it out.

Lol yeah that vid sure is fast but you get some new glimps - the thing that scared me is the supposed baby norn *wich is big* popped out from the egg X_X'


Also,Not sure if where still allowed to post here anymore? *now when a proper C4 section is made*

Thought I post up the Shee refs I have:
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h78/Getchuz/Shee.jpg

*I actuly made this for myself as I found some of my old rare Shee art I made and needed to color it and stuff - so I made a ref for myself but then thought ah what the hey - why not link it here as well)

just as a reminder..nothing else
(thats all official stuff of a shee we have,ya know? XD )

Edit: Just as a reminder - but the C3-DS "Shee" pic is NOT recolored by me - it is in fact the true colored pic from the original C3 site when it was still up...

Edit: Proof , found the backup Alien's creature world site had: Here

Wow. Honestly, when you look at them altogether, you see just how little continuity there is. Creatures Labs was never self-consistent with their Shee. Norn-like ears or no ears at all, black oval eyes, almond eyes or Norn-like bug eyes...

The C2 Shee statue doesn't seem to have a nose at all, but the Shee in the hologram does--in which case I'm glad the C4 Shee doesn't look like that. If the C1 statue really was meant to be a Shee, that also means the C2 version is the only one that doesn't have ears.

Honestly it looks like the C4 Shee has the best blend of features from all three games (C1 ears, C2 facial shape and hair, C3 nose).

Plus, even though the C3 Shee seems to have a bit of the Innsmouth Look going on, for the most part the differences in C3 and C4 Shee aren't outside the range of individual variation. His ears are either much shorter or angled back instead of outward, it's hard to tell, but that isn't a dramatic difference either way. The "fish eyes" aren't too handsome, but many people complained about that in the C3 Norns too, which makes me consider it more of a feature of the "art style". Maybe C4 Shee is just a bit more polite about keeping his eyeballs in their sockets.

Well actuly - I do think the hologram-ish one and the statue is same - it just make you have a impression there is a nose (I take it as you mentioned nose as there something sticking out,eh?,but to me dosn't look realy like it have one,except the dot nostrils,me thinks..

EDIT: What I mean is,
To me it look like the Shee have a bit muzzle like sticking out,yet it's kinda flat..and on the top they got nosetrils...meh I realy need to try draw that shee ref idea that I have in mind T_T I am bad at explaining >_<'

also for the ears of c1..I think it was just a fun thing added for the "statue of liberty)...but then again - the c1 shee pic of the sideveiw shee dosn't show it's ears...so maybe they have ears...who knows?

Also keep in mind the C2 shee *both hologram and statue* seem to wear a hat like acessory - wich very well could hide some ears underneath XD

To me? I allways want to think earless shee >: D

and you guys know allready what I think of the "C3-Ds" Shee XD

as for the C4 shee...cute..but more leaning to Jak&Daxter..

but hey - I am not bugged on the shee as much as the norn themself..the shee was only there anyway for the story kinda, It's not like im going to take care of little Shee's *even,thought if that was the case - the C4 shee do look more adoreable then the norns...except the promo group pic of the norns are only the one I consider on the cute side..but the ones ingame...O.o' *

I just uploaded some old shee pics I drawed *hence why the refs* and
I could even try draw the shee from all angle *well try at least (just to show what I mean - just some speculations on the C1-C2 shee,nothing else ;P )

Also the mention about the
Shee look different from C1 to C2 could also be evolution wise...still I find the C3-DS one being the biggest gap O.o *rounded/almond eyes at least is close then to suddenly round human (or should we say norn like? ) like eyes XD

Then again - I remember the once C4 going to be from clabs had alien like eyes (but thats more acceptable cos norns allready gone trough many evolutions,not to mention they are the main experiment of shee)

The models are cuter than the concept art, I'll say that. The model for the domestic Norn looked a bit like a fennec from what I recall.

The domestic on doesn't look too bad, but I'd save that for another creature. Like a Fennec.

Hmm.. I can't see any similarities *shrugs*
oh well up to you XD
Everyone have theyre openion,and Im not mad :3

btwn: I never seen the cartoons (and Im not at all for the lord of the rings in general) so I can safely say that never was used as a idea...I still can't see how in the hey is it a look alike O.o
(unless google hides the true pics away)..hmm..oh well..

Just a Note people:
******************
It's not MY take of designing a shee,mind you, it's just a quick doodle of the ingame shee >_>'
(well perhaps a failure but I did try)
along with some speculations..ugh X_X'
So if it look funny,then blame it on the only refs I had...the ingame ones!
this...(again) :
http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h78/Getchuz/Shee.jpg

It's not easy to draw a shee, I can tell you XD
nor do I care much for them to start with it,I just had some fun with this ;P

I just had it here cos of the shee topic before,thats all X3

so no,I know,it's not meant to be fantastic - hence it's a quick doodle drawing :3

It's more of when you see the soldiers from the side, although I can't find a screenshot of that... the king doesn't really look like a Shee. XP

I wasn't saying you had copied it or anything though, just that they looked a little alike.

I've always thought that the head-spikes looked like they were only attached, like a headdress - not part of the head like you've got, Norngirl.

I'm a bit scared by the fact that they are still not advertising the game at all and we have no big news.

Will it be released later than expected (again), or are they just completely ruining their chance to sell the game?


Ooooooooooweeeeeeeeeeoooooooooo

Hey, I wanted to apologize for the lack of updates recently. Creatures 4 is moving forward, probably at a slower pace than we hoped but it's still expected to be finished this summer.
We'll update with more details on our blog as soon as we can.

As per the marketing campaign etc. I guess our publisher will take the time to market it as they see fit, no much to say about this I'm afraid.

We're still looking into all your comments and although we can't integrate most of the stuff since the released is getting closer, we'll have more room for iteration once the game is released. The good thing with free to play (on top of it being free^^) is that the whole point for the developer is listening to player feedback to improve the game.

Thank you for your patience, take care!

Andrea,

I have an idea for a feature for the new game. Since C4 will be available for the ipad/smartphones and PC have you ever considered some sort of system that will allow you to play the same world on your PC and phone? Somehow keeping the world on your ipad synced with the world on your PC so you can travel without having to start a whole new world on the portable platform?

I understand a feature like this is advanced and would likely not make it in time for launch, but post launch this is something I'd be willing to buy in-game as an add on for sure.

hi NORNGod, that's exactly how it will work! All versions will be synced to the same account.

To be honest that's one of the things we're working on at the moment and that i's proving challenging. I don't know of any other games of this scale doing this so we're in unknown territory, but our tech team is working its mojo and we're getting there :)

I agree with Don. That is brilliant. I had no idea you would try to get something like this in for launch. Way to go. I would be more then willing to wait longer for the game for this sort of thing to be fleshed out and work properly (I speak alone here :)).

Andrea, another question. I'm not sure if this is something you can answer or not but I'm shopping ipads at the moment. Will the 16GB version be sufficient for C4 or would you recommend the 32gb or 64gb version?

I'd prefer the 16gb version due to price since I'll mostly be playing C4 on my PC but I want to be able to run the portable game as good as it will possibly run when I travel.

16gb will be more than enough. Creatures4 won't definitely take that much space :)

I'd go at least for an iPad2 o 3 though. We're targeting iPad1 as well but the power discrepancy between these models is worthwhile.

Definitely considering an ipad 3. I am looking forward to hearing more info about the game and release. :)

Thank you for the info Andrea. And a lot of us who played these games as kids in the late 90's are very appreciative of you and your team bringing the series back to life.

I really hope that it will fine on my iPad 1. *fingers crossed* I don't plan on replacing it with a later model anytime soon.

We will support iPad1. We'll do our best about performance but iPad2/3 will provide a better experience overall obviously.

I went on a desperate search for Creatures 4 news today... And found a little something! I posted about my findings at Discover Albia. Just call me impatient, because when I want to find something, I dig and dig until I'm somewhat satisfied! Maybe others already found this site, but if not, I've posted a couple of links.
