Lol! I knew that was coming! It was a really good mindfxck J. Keep the eerie, drop the horror,
and we'll give it another listen. :)
LOVE IT! :shock: :OQuote:

As an update, we're discussing core game mechanics and also getting some 3D models... modelled. We're also working on story.
Anyways, there's also been a bit of discussion about how realistic the characters should be. So far, we have realistic, 3D animeish (think Legend of Zelda), and completely unrealistic. It would be excellent if we could get an opinion from a wider demographic. So post what you would rather see.
As another update, we have created full 3D scenes that will be in the game, and are working on the storyline further. We expect the full game-play to be about 5 to 10 hours. Maybe more. What do you guys think?
We also have a full website we are setting up on a secret domain. :)
Once we have more content on it, we will share the link here.
See you then! ;)
Whoa, wait. Since when did we say that the gameplay would be 5-10 hours? In modern gaming, that's pathetic. We need the story itself to take at least 20 hours. :?Quote:

Micah isn't quite correct. We haven't quite established how many game-hours a playthrough will take. At the moment, we are ill-equipped to estimate such figures.
Will it have gamepad support? If not, joytokey is always an option. Just curious.
we will have gamepad support yes. We're using SDL which has built in library functions
specifically for joystick events. We will then configure everything to a ps2 style usb
controller, the player will be able to enter a menu and configure the key bindings differently
if they so desire.
It would be a good idea to edit the first post with all the info that are told throughout the thread! And maybe a board with all the participating members and departments.
Also i want to help with the sound! I can do a little sound design and recordings for foleys, and sound editing... Is there anyone else on this?
We have a separate board which we've been using for about... 6 months? for a while.
anyways, we just moved over to our own domain name with a full dev forum and setting
up a customer forum for later use when we actually market this thing.
We have a couple people doing sound/music, but we could always use more. We're setting
up a new application system. Once its up, feel free to submit an app. I'll pm you a link to
the dev forum.
I would help, but I don't think I would be able to have the time.
I have an idea you could add Dream police and of course secret societies. Some of these societies would be dedicated to helping dreamers escape. Others would be secertly bad waiting to use dreamers for their reasons.
Maybe you can have a co-op mode and have it like shared dreaming.
already have a secret society called Crescent but we have much of the storyline written. I don't know how weQuote:

As a reminder, what would you guys rather see graphics wise. Realistic, animeish, or cartooney characters?
Shadow up there is thinking cartooney. I'm thinking realistic or at least animeish. I'd like you guys to give us your opinion on that.
I agree, realistic or animeish sounds good. Preferably realistic.
I have being lurking here for a while now and I should have posted sooner but I can't really help out with anything.
But I can show my support and I think what you guys are doing is awesome. :D
why thank you, Rilly :D
Maybe the graphics can depend on the level of clarity in a dream?
