    Q. What do you get when you spend 16 months on a 6 month project? (Full Time)
    A. Divorced , Not quite.

    You get "The Lost Diamonds"

    Indie Developer Powervision Games (me), have just released a unique Point and Click adventure that incorporates real world environments with full 3D levels.

    Developed with iOS Free V4.3.4 (Started in V3.5 )

    Check it out via the following links, you will see why it took 16 months:-

    The mix of low poly graphics and video makes the whole art style look like a mess to me.

    @ TheRaider. It may come across that way in the video, however the change from panoramic photographic environment to 3D World, is separated by a level load, and it doesn't seem like a mess when playing the game.

    @ Casperjeff. Thats what I was going for unique, and to have a high quality on retina graphics, in the panoramic environments.
    The iOS link is a worry, I used that short link so it didn't take up too much room in a tweet or Facebook post, from in game.
    Is it still broken for you, what country are you trying the link from, if you don't mind me asking.
    I was reluctant to use the longer link as there is a country code in them, and they are quite long.
    The link posted above works from our devices (straight to store buy page) and on non device browsers goes to iTunes preview. (From Australia)
    Hopefully it was a glitch.
    If you can retest, would be appreciated.

    Link might have been non-functional for me because of a work firewall issue - works fine now (from the US)...
    Best of luck with the project!!!
