Prevail Hey guys, Sorry about the delay of posts on here, we have been buckling down and getting as much done as possible. We NEED this game done haha. Well progress is going well and Ill come back soon to do a media update, lots of cool progress has been made on people AI, polish and the feel of the game. We have all the gameplay and flow of the game mapped out, its a time where all our abstract ideas are coming to life and gelling together. So excited for it! Really feels unique and fun! Seems we didnt make a mistake making this beast Better get back to work!
Nice. Thanks for the update, can't wait for this to be finished (I must have watched the last video half a dozen times)
Hehe thats awesome to know Working to get it done soon, look forward to seeing what you think once its out!
We will announce a final date as soon as its known. Sorry dude. Lots more info and such soon, we have done a lot since we last showed it
I was thinking about some cool stuff i whould like to see in the game this morning. so I decided to post them here I wish that there were weapons / vehicles that you can upgrade. and when you upgrade them, they change the appearance. and perhaps that you can upgrade the character. For example, a longer line when you're flying around outside the spaceship then it would be awesome if there were hidden vehicles and spacecrafts, that there is only one of in the game. I like to look for the secret cars, etc. in GTA. That whould be so awesome for this. xD and finally, it would be super cool if there was a racing planet, with some awesome racing vehicles and maybe some racing spaceships can not wait for the game! want it now xD haha
Great to hear youre excited for the game and what aspects youre looking forward to. I think you'll be pleased with what we are going to deliver What else are people looking forward to doing in the game?
I wouldn't mind having the freedom to unleash utter devastation to a planet with weapons of mass destruction
Exploring planets, meeting new alien species, finding awesome loot and upgrading my spaceship. What I want most from this game is a little bit of a sense of wonder and discovery. Give us some ancient and largely incomprehensible artefacts here and there or something. Really, just surprise us!
Prevail News Great to hear your feedback guys, its seems like we are making what youre hoping for Its always good to hear what you think so we can adjust priorities. On game development news: MUSIC All in game sound tracks are played by the game engine in real time, this means each note and instrument is played by the game itself. We are using rich high quality sound banks so it sounds like a pre recorded song. Here are the benefits: -More dynamic reactive soundtrack! We can make it feel alive and not repetitive -Music goes with game feeling, can even be affected by slow motion -Can create as much music as we want with little to no filesize increase -Lower memory overhead than playing lots of mp3s -Tons of creative possibilities! PLANETS We have been creating new planets and graphics to finish off our Galaxy, we are now putting these in game so will have a lot of beautiful new visuals too. Some exciting stuff! MACHINES We can create interactive machines with leavers, pulleys, cogs etc which can play around with and it wil affect in game attributes. We are using one of these as a mini game to process the mined resources. There are lots of other fun possibilities too. Eg. Imagine digging up a strange dirt covered alien artefact that you can play around with. Doing so causes it shoots a beam of light into the sky - A loud sound fills the air and goes quiet, then moments later an unknown space craft comes to land, carrying a new piece of technology. A gift from the gods? ANYWAY. More media coming soon
Eery island I think it would be very interesting if there were some kind of dark planet on the very outskirts of space and you would arrive and there would be a flat, empty, dead landscape. You would walk around a while and you would stumble across some type of weird boarded of tunnel in a deep ditch.You would have to use some kind of tool to open the tunnel and then once inside it would be dark and strange and quiet. After traveling for ages down the tunnel you would hear noises and see traces of an old race (such as old pieces of equipment-lamps,tools,etc). You would keep moving and as you moved deeper into the strange planet, the sound would increase; it would sound very ...close. You would keep moving deeper and deeper until you would be confronted by some kind of horrific alien creature (not to freaky though, don't want to scare people) .You would kill/beat up the creature and move on.You would soon realize that you are surrounded by these strange creatures and you would have to defeat them as they tried to attack. Once deep enough down you would come to some kind of huge room with a slightly bigger creature of the same kind (maybe twice as big, to show that it is the dominant one) after defeating that finally you would uncover the secret of the planet and the history of the people that once lived there.You would then move on to a strange room containing a powerful piece of tech from the peoples past, you would get to keep it (of course). The whole thing would be very eery and strange at arrival on the planet and the suspense would build up dramatically in the journey down the tunnel, the creature would pop out and you would have very limited time to react. It would have to be an amazing story of the peoples history to end the suspense and the gadget you received would have to be something not to powerful (game changing) but just something that would let you do something interesting (such as a light orb maker, or a unique piece of clothing with a perk or any thing else that would do something with relevance to the story).
Is this going to have free roam/free-play? So I can just discover and explore and stuff too? I hate games that don't have a sandbox type feeling where they force you to do levels and then you just delete the game once you finish.
This is great, so good to hear what you are all imagining the game like. Really helps us know what we are doing right. For us whats really important, that we are aiming towards Freedom in exploration, Surprise, mystery and adventure The main design behind the game is to able almost any idea to be possible in the engine. The first version of the game we will release will be a proof of concept, we will be trying quite a few ideas out and seeing what people like. Then expanding on the areas of gameplay that are successful and refining those that need work. Know going in that this game will evolve with your input. Trying to make it a game for everyone who appreciates something different, appreciates the effort we are putting in to making it an exciting and fresh experience. In my mind the perfect iPhone game is something that remembers whatever you've done and allows freedom and depth without complex barriers to entry. This is what we are aiming for. Currently working on getting the Shop/Upgrade system in the game. Upgrade spaceships, buy new items and weapons etc This will give purpose and drive exploration. Give the player something new to look forward to exploring the various planets in new ways. Media updates coming once this stuff is in
