SawQuart Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 Although this game is still in early development, I still think you all should see it. I came across it on Youtube and then got directed towards the developer's blog.http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=o61XVOxuB5shttp://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=WRjfful_L-4http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jujKOju_MBM&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwollay.blogspot.com%2F&feature=player_embedded**Blog URL**[http://wollay.blogspot.com](http://wollay.blogspot.com)After looking around, I decided to email the developer about the game to find out more about it, and here is what I found out (it might be useful to any of you aspiring 3D game devs):1\. The developer has a PhD in CS2\. He says that you shouldn't need a PhD to create the game, just it helped him with the math3\. He wants to develop the game purely on his own, from the graphics to the sound to the programming4\. He developed the game using C and DirectX. He programmed most of the other stuff on his own.5\. He says he started game development when he was a teen and experimented.6\. He got inspiration for the game from Zelda, Minecraft, and Diablo, but he doesn't want to add mining or crafting (see the FAQ on the blog).Overall the guy was really nice through the emails. I just wanted to share this game with you guys so that you could keep tabs on it while it's still in development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmiguu Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I've watched some of his earlier development videos. I like the direction in which he is going. The gameplay looks much better (very fun, at that). Can't wait to see his next update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawQuart Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 @Rusher:> Looks nice ;). Kind of inspires you to try it on your own.Yeah, I had the same thought. A lot of people have been inspired by this according to his comments on his blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzmanm Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 @Marsh:> Never been much of a fan of minecraft but this i would play. Looks super fun.Me neither. But the feel of playing a game inspired from many awesome RPGs in a cube-like world would be so DAMN awesome! But the thing that hits me the most is that the only person doing this game wants to develop it by his own. My hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawQuart Posted December 4, 2011 Author Share Posted December 4, 2011 @Rusher:> inb4 the news of a closed alpha release.I'm not sure what release route he will choose to go. I hope he decides to do closed alpha then open beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusy Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Games should be released when they are done… alphas should not be released to anyone but developers. Beta is an option. Just because one fat swede had to release every single alpha version doesn't mean everyone has to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzmanm Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 > “The sooner the game is out the sooner we can start farming for feedback and problems.> > Having an early version out whilst the full game is still in development is actually a pretty good way of improving on the concept without having to re-do work which has already been done.> Being a perfectionist and trying to get everything done before releasing it is plain stupid. Look at all the idiots in the projects section not letting shit get released before they think it's "finished".> > The reason I get stuff done properly is because I get it released as soon as it can be released. If something needs to be fixed I can fix it on the fly. If something needs to be changed I can change it. You need something out there as soon as possible so people can start screwing around with it and testing the things you simply don't have time to test as a single person.> > That's why companies have entire departments dedicated to testing shit over and over again. You can't do that by yourself so you use your players for it.â€Â> -Robin Perris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because one fat swede had to release every single alpha version doesn't mean everyone has to.Or they could release it to a select amount of people that have connections to the press. That way people start talking about it and demand is created. I think that's how Terraria was marketed, but I'm not sure… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
