    It is a combination of fundamental RPG elements and challenging, session-based MOBA elements. Having features such as creating your unique build, customizing your outfit and preparing synergic team compositions with friends, players can brave dangerous adventures or merciless arena fights against deadly creatures and skilled players alike.



    Zeal Kickstarter campaign will start on 25th October!

    During the last week before the campaign (Oct 18-25) you can earn unique Celestial Wolf mount by inviting your friends to Zeal:

    Nice work.
    I wonder if BulletSharp and SharpNav are faster ?

    I don't know if they are faster than Unity because I just don't want to use Unity on server :)

    On a single i7-6500U core with meshes you see in video:
    BulletSharp does 150000+ raycasts per second
    SharpNav finds 50000+ paths per second
    Fast enough

    Thats is pretty big.
    Did you check if lowering the number allow to get a faster game frame rate ?

    This is just benchmark results, not a real load :)

    Also it cannot affect client fps in any way because it's done on server side
    Of course client itself doesn't calculate such important things like projectile hits or bots movement

    Looks really good! Looks very very similar to WoW haha. Are you going to put your own spin on it? Different game modes etc.

    VegetationStudio, MicroSplat and EnviroSky
    My Assets folder is more than 40gb so it's not easy to tell what exactly did I use :D

    We've decided to change our plans and postpone Kickstarter campaign to Fall.
    We're going to run a series of playtests, where you can play the game to check its early state and tell us what you think!

    Personally for me is too WoW 'iish. But looks good so far.

    I suggest you get solid number of followers before launching kick starter. Or otherwise you need spend a lot on marketing. Don't waste your opportunity.

    Either way, good luck.
