The Story of the Pixel Press Kickstarter & the Android Release
In March 2013 the team behind Pixel Press launched a concept video that quickly turned into a successful Kickstarter campaign in June 2013.
Daniel, Rob, Robin & Bradley at the Cartoon Network offices in Atlanta, GA in 2014.
Shortly after the end of the Kickstarter campaign, a team was formed and they set out to release Pixel Press on Apple iOS in December 2013 and Android in June 2014. After a number of delays, up and downs, set backs and scope changes, the team released Pixel Press Floors to Apple iOS in April 2014 and hoped to release on Android soon after.
However, during the Kickstarter campaign, Pixel Press was fortunate enough to attract the attention of Cartoon Network and soon signed an agreement to bring Pixel Press to the Adventure Time universe set for a January 19, 2015 release to Apple iOS, Android and Kindle. You can read more about that announcement and the story behind it here.
The original intention was to bring Pixel Press Floors to Android, however those plans were unceremoniously delayed when it was realized the awesomeness (and sheer size!) of the game that was being built with Cartoon Network. Ultimately, it was decided that the opportunity to offer all our players deeper and better creator tools would benefit from the entire teams focus on one app. The Android release was delayed, pushed (no less than 3 times) and finally earmarked to be fulfilled through the release of Adventure Time Game Wizard, a decision that has had its fair share of controversy on social media.
With that decision behind us, we are now as excited as ever to be able to offer you not only the Pixel Press "Draw Your Own Video Game" experience on Apple iOS, Android and Kindle with Adventure Time Game Wizard, but also now allow you to create on both your mobile and tablet devices, right alongside Jake and Finn from Adventure Time.
Other big highlights of this next generation in our software include a full campaign mode, multiple bosses and enemies, multiple characters with unique abilities and upgrades, the ability to create larger levels using up to 20 rooms, support for 11 languages, and so much more! You can read all about it on our Adventure Time Game Wizard page here.
