Extreme Terrain Flattening of Landscape by Robots

May 3rd, 2012

A case from last year gone un-reported so far…

Robots left unchecked for a long period of time have destroyed the natural terrain in this region of MonsTECA

  

A Stompy looks at the scene in disbelief

Terrain Levellers un-ashamedly continue working

  

Seen from the air the robot damage is extensive

MonsTECA weather report – first clouds observed over the planet’s surface

Unusual phenomenon seen for the first time yesterday…

unknown origin as yet, may be geo-climate change or some environmental side effect of robot activity?

watch out Stompies… HeavyBots got new wheels?

Welcome to the world of Monsteca. The annual Stompy Migration begins today!

August 23rd, 2010

These hapless looking creatures are called Stompies. They are not known for their deep thinking or their powers of concentration, so they will need our help if they are going to make it through the increasingly robot infested lands of Monsteca.

As monster herders, it is our duty to guide the stompies from the lowland meadows to their summer grazing grounds in the far off Fungtree forest.

Monsteca Corral has been released in America

August 18th, 2010

British indie game developer Onteca have revealed the release date of the much anticipated WiiWare™ title, Monsteca Corral: Monsters vs. Robots after almost two years of development. The monster-packed 3D strategy-puzzler will be available on WiiWare™ in North America  from August 16 2010 and Europe from August 20 2010 for 500 Wii Points™. Earlier announcements about the game sparked off debates as to whether indie company Onteca could beat the odds and create a user experience to rival Pikmin for WiiWare™.

Monsteca Corral focuses on fast paced fun-puzzle gameplay. It is targeted at anyone and everyone who enjoys pick up and play games.  You control a herd of peculiar orange creatures known as Stompies. You need to stop these cute and not so bright Monsters being stunned by invading robots. Instead of watching Stompies run a dim-witted riot, it is your job to collect them and guide them successfully through each level.

As a Monster Herder you fly above the Stompies saving them from the dangers of their changing environment. Your Stompies run through each level, collecting Energy orbs that are scattered throughout the habitat and which increase the communal power of the herd.  This power enables the herd to smash up buildings, resist the ever increasing robot population and feed the Astro Maggot that provide their ultimate means of escape.

Herders can use the Wii Remote to:
• create deviation paths that block off dangerous routes for Stompies.
• allow Stompies to follow a route.
• make Stompies split and form sub groups.
• help Stompies damage the robot environment.
• make your Stompies jump and shake and fart.
• rescue your Stompies from Robot Prison.
• escape on the back of an Astro Maggot.

Stompies migrate through the different and ever changing environments of the Monsteca World: Stomping through Desert, Open Plains, Wooded Highlands, Forest, Wetlands and City in their bid to make it home safely.

Can you get them all home?
