How would you like WTF's gameplay to be focused on?

  1. Minimum strategy, mindblowing action and tons of destruction!

    We are on the right path indeed ;)

    Pacific Rim is one of our inspiration references for the overall mood.

    Oh man, this looks just fabulous! Finally something different than the thousand CoD, WoW or Minecraft clone. Finally something I feel it has a good chance of having success. I guess I've been browsing Greenlight and Kickstarter too much lately. ;)

    Thanks for your words and your support, it's precious to us.

    We never made a Kickstarter because we prefer to have total control on the development. So we use revenues from our previous games to finance us and our projects. We are not (still :D) rich but we think this is our job.

    Nice! :D Did you just model the black hole or did you managed to implement a decent gravitational lensing?

    We started making a small particle accelerator in the corridor (we stole the idea from Tony Stark). That was the easy part... succeed in create a singularity on our desk required many tries and failings, but in the end we were able to film a real black hole! :D

    Just a joke, we studied the movie and found a geometry that work in conjunction with some particle systems. We'll soon post a making-of video about this.

    We're working on GUI and menus, here you can see a wip of the customization menu where the player can choose colors, patterns and livery for his War Tech.

    We are using only handmade animations (but only because we've not found a big enough mocap suit that fits our 30 mt robot we keep in the backyard:):):))

    We used maya for the base forms, substance painter for normal detailing and substance designer for procedural ageing and color variation.

    Today we're painting some asteroids in Substance Painter for War Tech Fighters arenas.

    They will be graphic props and also can be used as covers from opponents' fire. Some of them will also physically interact with War Techs and can be shot and destroyed.

    It's so good bros , keep it up! I love it :D
    How much money have you invested in this one? And do you have marketing plans after releasing this? Market is a real tough thing.

    Thanks!
    Till now we have invested tens of thousands € in development...
    As we usually say "make a game is the easy part of making games". Marketing is really tough, so we're looking for publishers (as we always did) and/or big "sponsors" for this project.
    We're trying to get some interest from Unity guys on War Tech Fighters but we're not sure on what would be the better way to do it.

    Lol TENS of THOUSANDS of € s. Oh maw gaaaadd!!
    And Marketing is left for investment.
    Now I see why 99% of Indie developers work so hard on their games , they post it. They don't make like 2$ in 2 years and some people with better marketing (due to more money investment) steal their ideas , make their own games and publish it in stores. They make sometimes like 2 Million in 2 months. This is so damn unfair but that's how everything works :(
    It's great that you guys are having market plans and your idea is also 100% original!
    In my case ,if you don't have enough money then all you can do is hope for good luck. Isn't it?
    But there is one more thing , if I can come up with such a good game that someone can trust me and invest on my game with confidence. That's also a chance.

    Finding money in advance to develop a project is getting harder and harder and virtually impossible for the mobile market.
    So we made a robust planning in order to auto finance our projects' development with revenues from previous published games.
    We're looking for co-financing in order to make a bigger and better product, but we're able to finish your project relying on ourselves.

    Please consider the "livery of the day contest" it's just a joke we're playing within the team, the game is not designed to reproduce any specific robot.

    We'll make new "famous liveries" when we have more pieces to work with :)
