donatelli,

The GOG thing isnt completely set in stone. We have been actively emailing each other, but I havent yet given them a playable build to check. The artist in me doesnt yet want anyone playing STASIS until its absolutely perfect!

GOG also really liked to have lots of value added items for their downloads.
Wallpapers, OST’s, etc, and I would really like to do something special for them.

I was actually talking to my brother today about what I would do with regards to a physical boxed edition of STASIS…do you guys have any ideas?

Adventure,

Thanks man. Its been a wild ride, and there is still a ton to do!

Software wise Im using VISIONIARE for the game (from The Whispered World, and Deponia).
For the graphics its 3DSMax, with Vray for rendering, and Paintshop Pro for all my texture work.
Post production and cinematics are all done in After Effects, and Sony Vegas.
Sound design is done with FL Studio, and Audacity.

what do you mean ideas?ideas about who to approach for talks about the boxed edition?

Ideas on what you guys would like to see in a boxed edition…

Posters, etc

i don’t really use posters but for wallpapers i’d like something like the visuals for Dog from Cypher:A text Adventure but for Maracheck.you know….a concept art kind of vibe with a close up for Maracheck.that would be cool!!i guess it can work in posters too.

Great atmosphere, too bad cannot play it this halloween.

Character is hardly visible in dark areas, i would suggest a flashlight on chest like Silenthill or recent Lone survivor or some thing like Deadspace visor or Health bar strip.

Any word on beta???

Im sure I can swindle something…

Internal BETA is running at the moment with my testers ‘on site’. Later on, I will see about running an online testing phase.

gorgeous

Thanks!

I did some experiments with getting the character to ‘turn’. I got it working at a scripting level, but it kept breaking, causing the character to spaz out and just rotate around and around. I think that the guys at Visionaire are looking into implementing something like that with the 3D part of the engine-but for now sue to engine limitations, we are going to be ‘stuck’ with it the way it is!

I was actually looking at redoing the dialog boxes to make them even LESS intrusive. I kinda don’t want to draw any extra attention to them, hense my desision to make it that you can still walk around while the dialogues are going on, so the conversations just feel ‘part’ of the world. It all goes hand in hand with my interface design philosophy of trying to keep things as ‘invisible’ as possible (with things like having an intuitive single click interface, not clicking to open the inventory-but just hovering over the part of the screen, etc).

I will play around a bit more, and see if adding a border adds anything, or takes it away.

Thanks for the feedback!

Man that artist’s site just looks terrible, but the work is just spectacular. My Designer side is dreading looking at it!
