Post by: danny* on Fri 25/07/2003 10:56:48
for some time now,Spyros and i have been working on a game called"The Cloak".
It is a fantasy game with an old wizzard as the main character.
The game is in an early stage yet,but we are working hard.
In a month(more or less) we will probably be able to give you a small (really small) taste(demo).

The detail is beautiful, Danny. It looks like it took a lot of work. Good job. :) :D ;D
May the story be as beautiful as the screenshot.

Silent characters? ???

Danny, this game looks absolutely brilliant, I love the art. The idea of being a wizard rocks.

Spyros is doing a lot of the scripting I presume?

You guys are great, can't wait!

Ooh ooh ooh! Gorgeous (even though I'll miss Gothic)!!!

But.. dyu mean to say this is a 3D rendered background??
Title: Re:"The Cloak" (G.A.C made)**screenshot**
Post by: danny* on Wed 30/07/2003 08:06:11
Thank you Neole!! :)
About Gothic,...i just put it on hold,it is not cancelled.
About this BG:It is textured and rendered with an toony style plugin within 3dmax.

thanks again!

Yes. I think it is perfect. The atmosphere is great... You know if you don't what to make charakters talk you canmake something like in The Sims games. Just *hah* *wo wo* and so on. Add some more info please. Once again... it is great.

This is amazing stuff, man.  You've got real talent (and God, do I wish I could do art like this!).  Looks like you may have a back-to-back best background art AGS award (that was one of the awards you won, right? :)).

edit: oh, and have fun with the scripting, Spyros :)

Wow, great screenshot!!!!
I can't wait, this game sounds great (silly rhime :P) !

In 3DMax? Hmm, could you do a tutorial? hehe. ;) I don't have 3DMax but it'd be interesting anyway.. You should concentrate on the gam though! ;)

Btw, when are the AGS awards held?
Title: Re:"The Cloak" (G.A.C made)**screenshot**
Post by: danny* on Thu 31/07/2003 07:32:19
wow,..thank you guys! :D It means a lot to me!
Cold As Ice :interesting idia of yours about the talking ,but i think that dialogues will be one of the parts that will make the game more interesting. :) About more info,well,...you have to wait a little bit,...a small playable demo will be out in a month or so!!
Frogman:i'm flatered!THANKS!! :D
GinnyW:THANKS!! :)making a tute won't be hard to do ,but i think that there is nothing to say about it.There are millions of 3d tutorials all over the internet and books,so why add one more?3D,as most of the arts,what it needs to be good is patience and hard work.!........but if other agsers want it too,i whouldn't say no!!
thank you!!! :)

Here's another thread I inexplicably missed the first time around, but now that it's been bumped I'd like to say how absolutely beautiful it looks so far.  Good job, guys!  Any word on that demo?
Title: Re:"The Cloak" (G.A.C made)**screenshot**
Post by: Minimi on Sat 20/03/2004 00:11:41
I'd like to bump up this thread, because of my curiousity, about the progress on the game! Is it still in development, and is it far?! According to the screenshot it's going to look awesome, so just my note, that im still thinking about it! ;D

You're really talented. Currently I am learning 3D studio right now at school. Seeing your art is totally giving me inspiration.
Hope you finish this project ...
so I can play it :)

btw:Is the toony 3Dmax plug in you're using called "illustrate"?

Is it done yet?
Title: Re:"The Cloak" (G.A.C made)**screenshot**
Post by: Scummbuddy on Tue 06/04/2004 05:10:58
Yes its done. Send me 50 american dollars and Ill email it to you.  We haven't heard from our friend in forever, he's busy with life or whatever. He'll come back, but asking if its done yet, kinda odd.

How about "Hows the demo coming? or Hows the game coming? Need any help or inspiration?"

The screens look awesome........is it just me thinking this or is there loads of great games in production.....

The attention to detail in the new breed of ags games has been kicked up a notch....

Which is a good thing....
