I'm Joe Mirabello. I'm an indie game developer! I made Tower of Guns.
Work continues on Mothergunship! Here’s an update! Wooo. :-D
Anonymous asked: Hey! Great game! Glad I bought it! SO this might be a dumb question but how is my high score calculated in endless mode? I see all my stats and then my score but I have no idea how that score was obtained. What am I missing! Thanks!
Thanks! This is going to sound crazy…but I can’t remember! It was a combination of level reached, money, and mobs killed, if I recall correctly. I DO remember that it’s different on consoles.
Originally I had an idea of score being handled by “tokens”–you’d get points for secrets, points for kills, and points for “exploring”, etc….and I wanted to use your score in each field to change what rooms spawned (so..a high ratio of only kills tokens meant that more action-y rooms could spawn, for example) I never did get around to implementing that idea though.
Bird Boy Volume III: Page 28 is up!
Bird Boy was also nominated for an Eisner Award for Best Webcomic this week! :OOO
Voting happens online and is open to comics professionals (www.eisnervote.com)
Morning reblog!
Good luck to Bird Boy–let’s hope it takes home that Eisner!

Crafting in Mothergunship
A small blog I wrote on crafting in MOTHERGUNSHIP just went live today, and
you can check it out here:
http://www.mothergunship.com/blog/crafting-in-mothergunship/
I’ll be posting regular devblogs on the mothergunship.com website, so check back often. I’ll still be posting here too, but my posts here will be a lot less formal/pretty/regular. :-)
Anonymous asked: Recently went to steamspy and was searching around to pass the time. Saw your estimated stats and was pretty happy for you (even if those tend to be inflated). You made 2014 much more interesting for me. I'm glad this game paid off for you. It was well done.
Thank you so much! :-)

That’s the plan! He’s doing some really cool work.
Anonymous asked: Hey love Tower Of Guns. Since I have had it I have got 6 of my friends to buy it and they love it. I was just wondering is there any merchandise of the game available such as a promo box or art or anything like that? I love games and miss physical games so it would be nice to have something of the game. Keep up the good work man!
There IS a physical edition of Tower of Guns now, if you’d like to buy it. You can find it on Amazon! :-)
Anonymous asked: Is the Hedgehog art bug going to be fixed? Anything past lvl 1 removes the textures from the projectiles. Love the game, thank you for your work! :D
Woah..really? This is the first time I’ve heard of this. Can you tell me what OS/version you play on?
Anonymous asked: Joe is there any possiblity for ToG2 or ToG new tower DLCs or something like that?
Check out Mothergunship.com! That’s my next project, and is a followup to Tower of Guns! In fact, it even started life as Tower of Guns 2, before we realized it was a much bigger game!
