@@wasteurtime5677 I think I have a good idea of the scope. But yeah along the way some things may change. For example the size of the first map will be smaller than I anticipated and stuff like that, while deving stuff always kind of changes.

@@thatFain Love that. No ill will. you are very talented and I really want to play your game however small it comes out

@@wasteurtime5677 thanks so much :)

@@a1534-d7k thanks so much :)

That depends a bit on if I want to have people for the music and sound effects and animations as well. With all of this cost until Early Access would be roughly around 200.000 and full cost until 1.0 release would be around 330.000. But as mentioned that always depends a bit. If I would work on the game alone and also do the sounds and animations (or use animations packs) the cost would go down but the time it would take to make the game would go up. Hope that helps a bit.

Thank you for your compassion, yes that would also be an option (also my preferred one). But to reach that point it will take some more time. Hopefully the project will get there at some point :)

Thanks so much <3. And thanks for following the journey :) Yes I plan to have one big boss fight in every map and also some small optional ones that are guarding the points of intrest or roaming the map :)

Hey die optische Inkonsistenz ist in diesem Fall sogar gewollt und gehört zum Grafikstil den ich mir für das Spiel vorstelle. Momentan ist die Grafischedarstellung auch noch nicht fertig, es sind noch einige Platzhaltergrafiken im Spiel. Momentan ist das Game noch in Pre-Alpha, das heißt sehr viele Dinge werden sich noch ändern. Vielen Dank für die Empfehlungen, werde mir das Video einmal anschauen.

thanks :)

Thanks <3 I'll defiantly keep working on it :) "Vision of gorgeous view"

Thanks so much. It's always good to hear that people will stick around even if things need a bit of time <3 Thanks for being here :)

True, the Level Design at the moment is still in it's very early stages. The landscape even is set up to do exactly what you mentioned ;) but I need to add way more landmarks and places.

I toughed about that, but I don't have the time at the moment to make more videos. And I also don't want to overdo it. But maybe I'll get around to make some technical videos about Level Flow and Level Design in general. Yeah as you mentioned the project always comes first !

I respect your honest opinion but I think that was a little harsh. Remember that honesty doesn’t have to be brutal. He’s making a fun looking game outta passion, no reason to put the man down

That's true. Game dev is always more of a marathon.

Thanks so much :) yeah sounds give live to everything ^^

dont get a publisher!!! you can do this!!!

@@chessersstudios1778 thanks :) I will definitely push on. But there are also some really cool publishers out there who I would love to work with :).

Dear villagers seem like a good publisher, they may be interested

@@CyborgsupermanX Oh nice thanks <3 they really seem to be very cool. Will add them to list of publisher I want to contact :)

True :) But also I have to clarify, I just meant I did not get the local games funding from hamburg. I still want to contact piublishers but the game needs a bit more polish for that. Damn I think I did a bad job explaining that in the video xD

Thanks so much for the offer :) But it is fine for now, I really want to pay people if they are also working on the project. because i really don't like it to have people work for free. But again thanks for the offer and hope your game dev projects are going well :)

thanks :)

Thanks for being here and watching the videos <3 :)

Oh yess ! Loved it <3. My art style is also heavily inspirit by gothic 1 and 2

thanks <3 I'll find a way to make it work :)

Thanks :) I don't really consider kickstarter at the moment. A kickstarter campaign is very time intensive and kind of a full time job in itself and in the end it still is a gamble. At the moment I can't take that risk and don't have the time to also set up a kickstarter. Maybe this will be an option in the future.

Thanks so much for the offer! Watching the videos and stuff is also super helpful for supporting me!! The patreon is only there if people really have the money to spare to do so. Please never feel obligated to do so. on the music side, I'm already in talks with some people that I know because of the music, so I think for now I'm good on that front. The other thing is, I would always try to pay the people who do work for the game, its not much at the moment but I really don't want people to work for free. You can also try to reach out over instagram dm's (instagram.com/that_fain/) or twitter (x.com/that_fain) dm's if you don't have accounts there let me know and i'll come back to you with my email (have to see if i already set up my business contact xD) I won't give up yet :) My brain always defaults to the game so I'll definitely keep pushing :)

Thaaanks :) Oh yeah defiantly do that! I'm in love with vertex paint not gonna lie ^^ it so nice because it also kind of glues the separate meshes together because the texture paint is persistent over the individual meshes. Somebody noted that I will not work with nanite though but I haven't tested that.

Yes, I always try to use one material/texture per mesh. I'm not using a classic texture atlas but something similar, because I want to be able to change the color of every texture in the material itself. but yeah basically one material/texture per mesh is the goal.

thanks so much <3

Oh yeah I know what you mean. Calamity kind of will play out a bit different. The progression of the game is extraction based, which means: - there are maps (little open worlds) each one will have a boss - your goal is basically to go into the map and loot better gear to get stronger so that you can defeat the boss. you always have to extract from the map to keep your loot / if you die you will lose your loot. this means you have to kind of decide what you want to do if you find some cool loot, do you want to push further or do you want to save the loot and extract. So in the end it tries to combine the looting from diablo 2 with combat from dark souls and extraction based gameplay from zero sievert or tarkov (no pvp). Until now I haven't seen a combination like this except in dark and darker or dungeonborne but they are first person dungeon crawler pvp focused. So I hope this gameplay will set the game apart a bit.

Damn I'm sorry to hear that :( I know how f#*+ed and stressful this can be. Hope you will find something soon and things will get better!

Thank you so much this is super valuable feedback! I also think that the flow of speech feels more natural without a dedicated script. I'll keep testing what feels good for me and getting better at it :). Its very good to know that the pace is good, I really don't want to have needless filler stuff in there.

Yeah it is suuuuuper cool !! Yeeahhh streams ^^, sadly haven't mentioned that I don't know if I'm able to stream much in August because Osmotic Studios spontaneously asked me to help out on gamescom and next week I'm on a festival. So the next two weeks I'm on the road. It sucks that you can't pin messages on twitch so I could inform everyone.

thaaaanks <3 will do !

Thanks so much for the kind words <3 Yeah getting the Steam page ready is on top of my priority list at the moment. Still need to some little thinks before to make a good trailer though.

Thanks so much <3 Good old diablo 2 style inventory never disappoints ^^

thanks so much <3 will do :)

yeah, my head always defaults back to the game. I still really want to make that game :)

Thanks <3. Yeah it really is a passion project and I'm still loving to work on it.

Thank you so much <3 and thank you both for watching the videos :) Yeah that's what I will do, I'm really grateful that people like the game and are interested in it. Yeah true finding good investors or publishers especially at the moment is not that easy. But yeah I also would not go with anybody just to get money. They need to fit to the project and give me the freedom to make the game I want to make.

@@thatFain We wish for all your success! And for as long as that journey is, we'll be watching! Keep it up

that's true. I'm also looking outside the industry at the moment.

@@thatFain I really wish you luck, I find a lot of inspiration in your work...I myself like the same crunchy pixel early 2k look of games when gameplay and story were more important than graphic fidelity.

@@nowherebrain Thank you so much <3 those where the days ^^ I completely now what you mean. I also really love to replay some older titles.

@@thatFain Gothic comes to mind, no need to repond :) I myself need to get back to work :)

@@nowherebrain ohh yeessss loved gothic

Yeah I'm still looking into making the sky a bit different. Will see how it turns out :) Sorry don't know what you mean with " can You like give the link for equipments system of clothes?" But for the equipment system, I'm using the "Action RPG Multiplayer Starter Template" from KaidoomDev (link is in the video description) but I also changed stuff around so that it will fit my needs.

Thaaanks :)

Thanks <3 Oh cool thanks for the tip will look into that :)

Thanks so much for subing and being interested in the game :) I'll work something out. I'm still really having fun to make the game, so I hope the day job won't get me that drained and I can power through :)

Thanks so much :) I'll keep it up and maybe even more people will get interested. For now I'm super grateful that all of you are interested in the game, so thanks for being here and watching the videos <3

thaaanks <3

Yess I also love that :) But there will also be a chance based element to it. The enemies won't drop everything all of the time.

Yuusssss ^^. Hope to get a little alpha gameplaytest up at the end of the year. But no promises xD

Thaaanks :) Nice that is good to know, hope everything is going well :)
