Things like this remind me why I love sci fi

8-0 This kind of stuff make me want to keep polishing the game forever!

frenzykitty

EEK! I'm SO EFFING EXCITED!

Is this going to be a full-length game? If you need voice acting, give me a shout :D

Around 0:55, that kind of "space tube" entering interdimensional/hyperspace/whatnot reminds me a lot of Dune. Immediate dream.
 

AnasAbdin

frenzykitty you got yourself a deal :-D

Monsieur OUXX it's just a regular time-lapse sunset over Jupiter :)

Sci-fi adventures are the best and this one looks very promising! Love the idea of randomizing events and puzzles and emphazis on player choice. Good luck with the production.

AnasAbdin

Added several alternative solutions for puzzles, some of the alternative solutions require physical and timing skills. Spending a lot of time adding background details for immersion. Recording and editing my own sound effects for the game. Created a few 2D animated cut-scenes.

The story is getting bigger and more complicated specially with random events appearing in the game, also with the branching story lines depending on the player's choices. Been testing the events a lot to make sure of the story's consistency and events handling. I've also been working with 2D animations. Casting voice talents for teasers and trailers. Thanks a lot to Tabata and CaptainD for helping me out with this teaser:

Carter had witnessed a weird phenomena. More investigation and documentation are required. Alex and Aziz are a little worried specially that Carter hasn't been 'well' lately.

Lt. Smash

This is looking really AMAZING! :shocked: Those cutscenes are really well done and the characters animations couldn't be better!
Kinda reminds me of The Dig, especially the first part where you move around that asteroid.

Can't wait to try this out!


Just one thing that could be improved: Select a more space-y font that fits better to the theme and get rid of the default buttons for the inventory.

Lasca

Wow! This looks really awesome. Love the cutscene. And nice voiceacting Tabata and Captain D!

AprilSkies

Amazing!
I have no more words about this game :shocked:

Thanks AprilSkies and Lasca for your kind words. getting feedback from awesome artists like you means a lot to me :-[
Lt. Smash I will consider your suggestion regarding the font. I'm not sure what you meant by "get rid of the default buttons for the inventory" though. could you please shed some light on that?

Lt. Smash

Oh, I meant the grey squares behind the inventory icons with the arrows and the ok button. Certainly a UI from a space ship would look good ;)

BTW the trailers are really cool :) So much detail! I like how the lips fit very well to the spoken words!

Not only nice voice acting, they have also responded quickly to my short notice :-* :-*

This is not the inventory, these are dialog topics.
