Aeroplay

Yeah, we’re Aeroplay now. And I’m happy about it because instead of having the confusion over “Para Pro” and the address “ParaPro” we now just have a one-word name. Anyway, our new address is www.Aeroplay.co.nr, and if you go to www.ParaPro.co.nr then you’ll just get linked back to here. So we hope you all had a chance at voting, and overall we had 41 votes. Only two people actually voted for “Other”, and Aeroplay got 19 votes, and the runner-up, bluNitro, had 9 votes. So Aeroplay won by a landslide!

From now on, we are going to work even harder than ever to bring you good quality games, and eventually we will have an MMOG out for you all to play. We’re also growing (just a couple of weeks ago, we were a company of five, now we’re eight!) and we’ve had this company now for about a year (we started it in April ’08). We hope to improve the forums this year, our graphics, and make lots and lots of games! See you all around next time.

Best Regards,

-Aeroplay

New Library

We’re working on making another website, which we can have all of our games on easily. Eventually, the two websites may merge together, but for now this will have to do. Anyway, with the new game library you will be able to rate and see screenshots of each game before/after downloading. We will also have a top five games list so you can see which games are the highest rated. Lastly, there will be another list of most recently created games. We hope that this will get you to come here and visit us more often.

Best Regards,

-Para Pro

P.S. You may not know (we sort of forget to tell you) but we have a new email address. ParaProGames@gmail.com.

CodePackage Partnership

This year we at www.ParaPro.co.nr are sponsoring the CodePackage [www.CodePackage.com] project, Everyday ’10. Each year since its creation, CodePackage has compiled numerous hit products from that year, and released it in December/November of that particular year. [You can see Everyday '09 here] We’re working on collaborating with them to come up with the best Everyday project yet, and have already come up with several interesting ideas, but we won’t list them here because it’s not really up to us [CodePackage might, but they might not]. We’re going to have to leave you hanging on that one! But they might include one of our games in Everyday ’10, which would be pretty cool. Anyway, we’ll post more about this later.

Best Regards,

-Para Pro

What’s Next?

Well, we’ve gotten some requests as to what we plan on doing next. First of all, we’d like to launch Fill The Order (with a new name though), plus make Capsule 2 and Clay 2. Also, we are planning on making some more minigames, and here’s the order in which we will release them.

February:

1. Krainn [finally!]
2. Either ‘To The Top’ or the first Fill The Order minigame
3. Also, as an extra to make up for January, we will release a random level generator

March:

1. Clay 2 (a lot of development will be going into this, and we’re starting it now)
2. Either a shooting game or the second Fill The Order minigame

We’re not sure yet for April, but we would like to get FSS and some other biggys [Ball Wars II] out. Hope you guys stick with us through these next few months! Also, in January we had the lowest number of visits ever, and we hope that this month we’ll be getting more.

Best Regards,

Announcment – What’s Happening

Well, there have been several request as to what is currently going on with Para Pro since we have not been posting much, if anything. Well, because all of us are in high school and have been working hard (at least that’s our excuse) we have not had much time to do much with the website. We are, however, starting back up with posting at least every week again. Except there’s something different.

This is my last time blogging to all of you anymore. I’m being replaced, probably by Zachary, and he may also take over Para Pro from me. I’m going to continue on working with Para Pro, but I’m no longer going to be the web designer, blogger, or owner. I’m instead going to focus only on creating games, since there are currently only two of us doing that right now. We are looking for another employee, one that is in TPS (TPS.StudyPlace.us) and has some experience in sound editing/creating and recording voices. We need this for our games, and because we are going to make some sounds to add to our website. Also, we are no longer going to continue adding graphics, as www.Nitronic.co.nr is doing that already and we create almost the exact same type of graphics as him.

So, in conclusion, we are now going to only do games, we need a TPS employeee, and we may add some sounds to our “library”. From now on, all our graphics/game sprites will be top quality and our games will be released nearly every other month, starting on February 01 (game will be called Krainn). We also have a new game, called Capsule, by myself, that we are going to put up shortly. Thank you for bearing with us the long Christmas season, and we hope you had a very special Christmas and New Years’ day.

Best Regards,

-Nathan Wood (formerly known as Para Pro)
