NOTE WELL: These products are still under development. This is a preview: everything mentioned here is subject to change without notice, because the product is a work in progress. Please don't ask us when it will be released -- that'll give us more time to finish the product and get it to you all that much sooner. We'll let you know just as soon as it is released, we promise. The best way to stay informed of product releases is to sign up for our announce_list mailing list, or check our web site periodically.

For those of you who can't make it to the MacWorld show, here are some of the cool developmental titles we'll me showing off at booth # 2013.

Cythera

We're showing off the beta 4 release at our booth! Glenn Andreas' epic roleplaying adventure gets even closer to release with this new beta copy. The new release has some interesting new features, like a new skill system.

In the screenshot below, see the new character classes, as well as the main character portraits.

Ferazel's Wand

Ben Spees is working on a new action-packed scroller called Ferazel's Wand. It will feature over 1000 frames of hand-drawn animation, and more magic than you can shake a wand at!

Nasty enemies stand in your way. Destroy them with your magic, if you can!

Slithereens

Jesse Liesch hops on board the Ambrosia Train with an amaze-ingly rockin' snake came called "Slithereens", which supports network play via appletalk and the Internet, as well as cooperative or competitive 2-player modes. If your snake is the last surviving, you win! If you're bitten in the right spot, you're toast.

Can you eat all of the other snakes and pass the level? Survival is something to aspire to in this game of eat or be eaten!

Manse

Surprise! Manse is back, and it is looking better than ever! We're demonstrating the newly designed engine! Here are a few screenshots that show off the immensely cool lighting effects you can see with a nice 3D card:

A grenade has a bluish glow to it, which you can see in the walls. The explosion has an orangish glow. Sweet!

These games, and more, are coming to you soon, only from Ambrosia Software!
