If there are two things Ben knows, it's urban decay, and blimps.



Nine sections down, two to go. There's nearly a game!  :shocked:

Stupot

Gorgeous background. I'm so excited for this game :-)

Adder

This is looking so fantastic!  Very excited!

Monsieur OUXX

WHAT THE ?!?
How did I not see that thread earlier???
Congrats Technocrat
 

CrashPL

Great art style and the overall atmosphere (especially the 'destruction of Singapore' and the blimp shot), I'm really looking foward to this game!

BLACKBEARD

Woah, as soon as I saw the screenshots, I was like

"BEN CHANDLER UP IN HEEERRREEE" :cheesy: oh yah (nod)

Seriously, this guy is my pixel art inspiration. When I get good at pixel art one day, I wanna be Ben Chandler good. How did you get him on board??

Because the game is being published by Wadjet Eye, and Ben is an employee.

Oh yes, he is isn't he? How much of the game do you have to have prepared for proposal to publishers you reckon? Is just a script enough?

But really, TechnoBabylon looks great. Looking forward to buying it.

@Blackbeard - It's usually been that the games' production is well underway or even nearly finished by the time WEG picks them up to publish. In the case of TB, there have already been three TB games - this is a remake of those plus a whole lot more - so you'll probably need more than just a script. But I guess there's no harm in asking ;-D

from the screenshots, this game looks so good!

Q: will it, once finished, also be published on steam (and/or others like GOG for ex.) or just by Dave's shop only?

For the latest version, I'd cobbled up a demo of the latest version of the first episode of it (about a twelfth of the complete game), plus a document outlining my plans for the project as a whole. I think it probably varies from publisher to publisher what they want, I just had the luxury of meeting Dave in person at AdventureX, and already having his artist keen on the project!

I *think* Steam is where it's going, but I've no idea what's happening regarding publishy stuff. I'm focusing on getting the game finished, first!

Steam has already given me an App ID for it, so I think we can safely say it will be on Steam. GOG as well.

This is going to be absolutly great.
With the great art and the wonderful script this is bound to be absolutly awesome.
Thanks for doing this!!

Thought I'd chime in and show the first track created for Technobabylon: https://soundcloud.com/nathan-allen-pinard/wip-projectthingytrack1

Really nice track Nathan!  Can't wait to hear it in-game.

Hey! Hey! Hey! More fine work from Ben Chandler! Guess what section of the game this scene's from?

No, that's a silly answer, why would you even think that? It's the last section...well, second-last, but I've already made the final one. So...uh...yeah, give me a couple more weeks, and there's going to be a game playable from start to finish! Minor interruption in my productivity for getting married and stuff, but I shall endeavour not to let such trifling matters stand in the way of computer games!
