so soon?!
holy fuck the ending is amazing. for everyone else, THIS IS HOW YOU SHOW A PROPER NARRATIVE.
and the concepts and shit is fucking sweet as fuck, i just hope they can tie it in properly with how the story has progressed so far.
some really boss stuff there, boss.
also gives a good impression of how to make a room more interesting
i think it being a nuclear submarine is more likely than a shipwreck, but even at that it's in an unusual shape. perhaps it's one of those weird soviet experiments...
my sentiments exactly.
origin can go fuck itself.
Quote from duxSo, Germany v Portugal for the final, anyone?
same thing as every other year, right?
it's genuine, which is why it isn't in EOT

word. the "human side" of judging is just plain bullshit

looks pretty good, are all the assets yours as well or...?
also,
NO! you must listen to my critique about how small your buildings look!
just an addendum to my post - you could use narrative clues in creating more landmarks. usually when you enter a new area there's a whole bunch of things going bad. either it's a faction war or zombies attacking or maybe it's more subtle, like a disease or something. in any of those cases though, it gives you rich possibility playing around with the environment to see just what exactly the area holds.
Quote from MclogenogPsychonauts is a particularly good example. Its gameplay and level design are used to address the complex issues of repression, self-criticism, facing inner demons, and coming-of-age. As a mainstream game it was unsuccessful, and it's hard to judge exactly why. But it was a big risk. Many of the individual levels in Psychonauts could be an indie game of smaller scale than many of those I already listed, and for the development costs it would have been a more acceptable risk. For example, Costume Quest, as a smaller (low-risk) project with some thematic overlap from Psychonauts, was a commercial success.
timing is very important and a very underestimated part of (indie) marketing. while i don't think this is the case for what happened to psychonauts, i do know other examples where similar games have been released with as little as a 6 month interval, where the latter succeeded while the former didn't. a game with any grip and little hype (something along the lines of minecraft) needs to be released into the public at the right time. who knows, maybe if minecraft was released earlier it wouldn't have the same amount of backing as it came to have now.
i'm pretty sure this is going to be entertaining to watch and turn out for the better...
i might be going with a friend
for an RPG or adventure game this map is pretty cool. i'd even go so far as to say i'd expect it to be in a sort of MMO game, simply because of the vastness of the area. one thing that kind of bothers me is that for an area like this, it seems like there's no thought to subdividing the area into smaller areas. when looking at similar maps (especially in terms of MMO games), maps are often subdivided into smaller maps that each have a proper landmark. so in one large area you'd have a monolith, a town and a cave area (which are good landmarks), but then the rest is kind of blurry - what are you supposed to do there? what is it supposed to be? just hills and water covering more than 50% of the map?
