It is not often that as a dev that you can say that a project (mainly a game) is finished. Hell software is never finished! They can always be improved or so they say... We are very satisfied with the last update of Audio Infection. An update that was so huge that it was divided in 3 parts; A, B and C. We have basically created version 2.0 with the things that were revamped... and it was worth it! In late November 2019 is when we went to the drawing board and started planning

December is a month full of festivities and holidays, not just for you but for us as well. That being said I wish you all happy holidays and a joyful new year in advance. Since this is quite a busy period our progression has been slow on both games Audio Infection and Eternal Wanderer. For Audio Infection we had in mind to give the pub a long needed overhaul and believe it or not but even though the progression is slow we are creating amazing results! In this update we will c

As you probably have noticed, we went silent for quite some time. That is because most of the functionalities that we are working on requires a lot of time for small results. That means that weekly blogs would end up showing close to zero progression compared to the previous ones which would end up being rather... quite boring if I say so myself. So instead the blogs will reduce in quantity but improve in quality (for now)! Eternal Wanderer so far has almost the karma system

Eternal Wanderer contains complex systems in order for the king to reach a fair and peaceful state in the kingdom... eventually. Today I will enlighten you a bit more about the reincarnation system that pretty much goes hand-in-hand with the karma system. In the previous blog we covered karma and it came down to that the fact that most actions as the player will have subtle consequences. These results will be taken into account once your life ends, because you will be going t

Today's blog will cover a part of one of the most complex systems in Eternal Wanderer; karma. In order to create a system based on karma we first have to understand what karma is and where the term originated from. According to the Hindu scriptures karma is a being that serves out justice. It is the definition of action that causes reaction. You have to kick the ball in order for it to start rolling. If someone for example harms someone else then according to karma there is n

In Eternal Wanderer the kingdom is divided in 3 major area's. The poverty district, the market area and the royal district. These places can be distinguished by plenty of factors going from visual appearance of the buildings to the people that live there and their behavior. Each of those area's have major key points in the game and hold an important part of the story. But we will delve more into that in a different blog. Today I will tell you a bit more about how you can mana

After 7 blogs I think it is finally time that I will unveil the final design of the logo from RaafOritme to you guys. At the bottom of this blog you can see the final result. I am very happy with it and very proud of the final outcome. But that isn't everything. Did you know that we have started working on an asset list for our third game? That's right, we have entered the development stage. This means that over time you will be able to see some visual progress about what the

Did you know that you need a ton of documents when you are starting a new project? Well it isn't exactly a must, but it is rather more of a thing that you would like to have since it clears a lot of things up and makes sure that everyone involved is on the same page. In the long run it will make a lot of things easier as well since you have already either decided about certain decisions or are able to see the bigger picture. As boring as it is writing documents are extremely

As an avid gamer myself I am quite aware of the fact that there are literally millions of games out there! These vary from simple small games such as the chrome browser dinosaur game (when you're offline) to some of the latest and greatest games such as the upcoming Borderlands 3. But there are also old games such as Tetris that are still widely known but also the less known games such as Jumpman, whereas his follow up name, Super Mario is pretty much known by everyone. With

Did you know that the average age of the people that like story rich RPG's, that are open world and have great back ground music, is 27? The majority of them (66%) are males and they usually game in the weekend for quite some hours from afternoon until midnight! Believe it or not, but there is a lot more to this and a whole lot more information in the results from the research I had to do the past couple of weeks. The fruits of all the hard work is a simple persona profile. I

Our third game follows the adventure of a foolish king fueled by greed. His greed makes his people suffer and to top it off his adviser seems to have his own agenda that is no good either! The king gets betrayed by the people he once trusted and is cursed to keep getting reborn in the kingdom he once ruled, but not as a king or someone from high classes, but as a peasant. And at that the ones that can't even work nor the healthy ones. As he gets to see the kingdom from anothe

As we have published already 2 titles on the market it is about time that we start working on our third title. The best way to save a lot of time in the long run while having certain guidelines to fall back to is to have documents... and a lot of them. In game development we tend to refer to the Game Design Document and Technical Design Document. For large projects these are essential documents as it will help new or temporal crew members to quickly digest what they need to k
