A video of my framework being used for Kingdoms can be found here:

 

Cool progress but it looks like you are unsure of what you are making. The first video clearly depicts a goal towards a sandbox (Possibly survival) and then it looks like you started ditching that idea heading towards an mmorpg WoW clone. (Which I do not recommend as a team of 1). Do you have a plan for this project or is this more of a messing around to learn type of project? One of the worst things you can do is develop a game without some sort of idea as to what you want it to be at the end. Because then you will simply play some game you like and then start pulling pieces from that and adding it to your mishmash of a game. The game will never get past the beginning stages of development. I know this because I've cycled through at least 50 unfinished projects in the last 10 years here.

 

lol I'm the same way with the 50+ unfinished/Prototype projects in the last 10+ years. This game is a Survival Sandbox MMORPG with tab targeting combat at least for now. I may redo the combat system at some point in the future but for now it was the easiest and quickest combat to get implemented.

And awesome progress on A simple life!

 

Great and thanks! Well best of luck with this project. I think the world needs more survival sandbox games! That's pretty much my go-to genre for entertainment and as of right now the pool is very limited.

 

Work continues and here are some of the latest screenshots from development over the last few months:

 

great work! keep on going your way!
