You should recruit 2 or more game designers for User Interface/Game Balancing/Skill Balancing... And an other specialize in Economic Design to rip off that shitty full gamble system who makes more people stopping the game that continuing it. 2 network programmers should not be a waste: Jonathan seems to be alone to work on desynch's prob...

" Excellent! Thank you. I wonder if game development would be faster if they hired more people? Or is it they do not trust outsiders for their baby(poe)? Or is it just that the way PoE was made do not allow, somehow, more people to be involved in dev? http://wideo.co/view/449781379368063514-inexs-journey-for-the-8-stars (Music: Odd Look)

" Rhys! You do the level generation stuff? That is absolutely fucking awesome man! Grats. And thanks. The random level generation, (combined with the cool mechanics), but the random generation and the re-play-ability of that - I get a lot of enjoyment from it. I love it - well played - nice :) I wish more games would randomize content. It makes everything feel a bit bigger. And it works so well. Gratz on making such a fun bit of the game! I dunno if you build the maps up completely from a palette "blocks" - but the way you link up fixed landmarks. Like the first of the cave sections after the mud flats - with a teleport - the entrance and two exits!!! And they all link up. I've never seen a map with a cut-off / inaccessible area. It's just genius. I like Minecraft - and shit like that. I like playing with voxel terain stuff. I like Terragen. But I've never seen such high detail in a "Procedurally generated" (is that what it's called what you do?). It's just awesome. I have played Catacombs literally hundreds of times. I feel like I'm developing a "Feel" of what might be around the next corner!! But I still get a feeling of exploration every time I go round a corner. This wouldn't be half the game without the random map generation. I only wish is that Catacombs was bigger :P . I only wish that maybe Catacombs could spawn a door like the chest into yet another catacombs - so I could see how far I could get stringing them together!!! I just love the levels! Anyway - Laters - and thanks! |
