    Video is brilliant. Great atmospherics and the use of effects make it somewhat claustrophobic, gives quite an uneasy feeling.

    Playing this at night with headphones on is going to be fun

    Yay! Thx mate And I plan to put on a info sign at the beginning of the game that its advices to used headphones when playing. Specially as I want to experiment with the sound panning left and right and such.

  • I'm in Australia bud

    Can't wait to see how the enemies look... and how the world shapes up.

    Oooh! Well then, THAT tells a lot in case of time zone difference hah! We are like on the opposite sides of the planet.

    About the enemies - I prefer to call them Creatures, or Entities. They are like interdimensional animals. They areneither good or bad. Just sometimes stuffed, and something hungry

  • Grymligast you wanted to see more? :3

    PrinceofMars that "soon" is heeereeeee!

  • I remember spore. Interesting choice ^^

    1st goal is:

    I want the gameworld to feel alive. Not like "weaved to suit the player". Because that kills the immersion. When the game is constantly reminding you that you are the main hero. No. I want the player to feel like nothing but a small dot, on a canvas busting with alien colors. I want the player to feel like a part of the game, not its main source of momentum.

    2nd goal is:

    Storytelling. Sandboxy as it is - there are a lot of random events and encounters. Much more than you will be able to see in one run. A story and journey to understand this otherworldly dimension. And finding your way out in one piece.

  • I'm curious to see how you will add mobs and random event in your game in a teaser soon ^^

    A hint. Remember a game called Spore...? Remember its Bacteria Stage? Take that and expand. I mean, really, go wild. Create a real, living ecosystem. Where big creatures eats the small, when predators hunt in packs, where dead carcass is being "purged" by small swarm of creatures.

    I want the player to feel like he had been dropped into small alien jungle. Full of beauty... a horrors.

  • A really good work with layers and FX, this thread must be followed ^^

    Oh I'm just getting warmed up. This is like 3rd week in Dev. Lots of work to do a head of me. Thank you Mad =)

  • Aaaaand... here we go. As promised...

    So you wanted moving pictures eh? To see if this isn't just a fancy photoshop mockup? Then get those here moving.

    Now, without the hype: the Teaser is kind a crap. Because the game is still in early alpha. So there is not much to show. Moreover - my garbage of PC is 7 years old with a dying graphic card. So recording even a bloody Minesweeper in 60FPS is a challange. In order for this thing to be recorded in 60 FPS - I had to record it in a '90s resolution, which was around 640/360, and then stretch to fit in video editing soft.

    The whole teaser took me around 30 minutes to make so yeah... don't expect any fireworks. Quite frankly - the less you expect, the better for you. Anyway, umm. Yeah. Knock yourself out.

    Still reading? Hm. Alright. So now without that "wise-guy" attitude... Jokes off - I am really putting my heart and soul into this one. I know its not really Mass Effect: Andromeda trailer, not even close. But regardless - I hope you will enjoy the show.

    Also, have a wonderful day

    (and sorry for my grammar)

  • I'll be asleep by then (it's 12:30AM here now) but I'll be sure to have a look in the morning

    I want to see, because your graphics are quite stunning - so seeing it motion is really going to be cool

    ~Sol

    Wow! Past midnight? Where do you live?

    And wow again - thank you. You have no idea how much this means to me. No PR/asslicking. To be honest I was very worried will other people find this attractive. I mean, I have a very umm, "specific" taste of visuals. Many of things I find beautiful - other people see as disturbing or creepy. I was afraid (And I still am) that this odd ball might push off many people.

    As of the video - sadly it doesn't look as good as I hope for it to be. My PC is 7 years old and its graphic card is at dying point. So I couldn't record it in Full HD, 1920x1080 resolution. Had to downres it to 1024/576 in order to get that 60FPS. At 1080p it become a slideshow. I mean, only when recording. When playing in fullscreen, even on garbage PC, I rarely see any drop below 60 FPS. Plus the video was made in hurry.

    I am not really aiming for fame at this point, because I am still far away from finishing the game. Just wanted some feedback and motivation. There is nothing more depressing than working on something that no one else knows about.

    You know what? Ah screw that. I'll send you the link right now. But don't share it around. Not yet. Too soon.

    Take it as a "thank you", for your kind words and support =)

  • I can't wait to have a look

    ~Sol

    I am actually quite flattered by your anticipation =)

    I am really putting my heart and soul into this thing. The most interesting design I had ever created. Then again... My designs were never that good to begin with lol.

    I'll be dropping the video in around 4h from now.

  • Graphically this looks really appealing... can't wait to see some action footage

    You actually inspired me to shot a quick teaster video. Should be up later. Stay tuned. Its far from perfect but ended up being quite cool,

    That sounds interesting - Nice background ^^

    Thx mate. If everything goes as planed and the game will actually gain some following - your Steam plugin will gain another sale.

  • Graphically this looks really appealing... can't wait to see some action footage

    The motion will really give the verdict - it usually does, no matter what the graphics look like. I'm expecting some really visceral feeling action

    ~Sol

    Actually I was very sad because it looks like crap on screenshots vs in action lol. I'll try and fix up a video. But the problem is my 7 years old PC Recording even windows minesweeper makes my frame drop.
