The sixth installment of Trapped will not be called Trapped 6. It's going to be the final installment, so I want a more recognizable and cooler name. For example Trapped Finale, or Trapped Legends. Anybody have any suggestions?

I've decided to put off all projects to work on Trapped 6. I've realized that there are probably a lot of fans who are waiting for it to come out (it's been 3 years since Trapped 5), and it's what I'm most known for. After I release it, I can link the Trapped series with matRugDevelopments (my new alias), then put out other games I've been working on.

Trapped 6 is going to be super duper, and I have some really good ideas for it. If any fans out there read this and want to contribute some ideas, feel free! I'm going to start working with flash full time in December, but for now I'll sketch out the game on paper.

Thanks to all the fans!

I'll graduate in May 2009 from college after a long 6 years with a degree in Math and another in Computer Science. After I graduate I'm pursuing developing flash games full-time. Yea, I'll be broke for some time with bills and undergrad debt, but hey, I want to be happy and do what I love. I'm going to be devoting all my time into learning CS3/CS4, animation, and other programming stuff. Hopefully I can create some quality stuff someday. "Solo Man," and other projects I have in development look to be promising for a start... we'll see!! For now you might as well check out an old submission Trapped 5. Any words of wisdom or encouragement are welcome. :)

Level 2 of Solo Man... although it won't be called Solo Man anymore.

Go to post 5 to see a closer up version of the new character.

What do you think?

Say goodbye Solo Man. Hello new hero of my game!

It's a better character. I think it's going to be a robot rabbit, or something like that -- maybe a dinosaur?
Here's a picture of level 1.

I just need to make a statement really quick!!

I never knew the game Rocket Car existed until just now when I saw Rocket Car 2 in the Portal. It's a great game, but there's something I want to clear up. My platformer, Solo Man (it's name as of now), is coming out late 2008 and shares similar features and gameplay such as the rocket (mine's a jetpack), the fuel, and the reverse gravity.

I've been working on Solo Man for quite some time now and just wanted to clear up that when it does finally come out - I did not copy! Although my game is totally different, it shares some main concepts with Rocket Car which was not intended. I was totally shocked when I just first played Rocket Car at the similarities.

Any-hoo.... great job with Rocket Car guys! Look forward to Solo Man coming in a few months! Check out previous posts to look at some pictures of it.

Hello everyone!

Coming late 2008: the incredible and inevitable first journey of Solo Man. Follow him in this unique action/adventure/puzzle platformer.

Look forward to it...I think you're all really going to enjoy this game! It is much better than my 'Trapped' series.

Here's a small sample of my next "un-named" project. It may not look that great, but the objective of the theme is a unique, fun, and surprising puzzle/adventure platformer with a story line, bonus levels, secrets, and a little twist. The music, sounds, gameplay, and storyline combine for a nice package. If you liked my series "Trapped," I really think you will enjoy this gem. Hopefully it will be done within a couple months.

Like my Trapped series, I hope to come out with an adventure platformer sooner or later...most likely later. Any suggestions or ideas?
