How so? It looks to me like it is cooling.
Actually, it is OP Group again and not Conitec anymore.
Wow. Really? When did this happen (and why does the home page still say Conitec)?
If you hold the copyrights, then why don't you take a part of your novel (or the universe) and make it into a game.
It's part of the plan, actually (and part of my renewed interest in GameStudio). I have the novels (a trilogy), an old school pen and paper RPG (like Dungeons & Dragons) based on the concept, and a potential video game as well. I do hold all the copyright and rights to the story, characters, artwork, universe, etc. I was very careful about this.
The trick is: Although it is sci-fi/fantasy, you could use traditional paintings etc. as a basis for the artstyle of the game. That would be something unique. Most sci-fi games have this clean metal/light/glass look with laser beams and holographic-stuff. I would like to see a real sci-fi game, Okami style, if you know what I mean smile Man, that would be awesome!
I am not sure that I will go the route that you suggest, though I have toyed with this for other game concepts. I want to create the world in a way that is similar to what goes on in the book. Fortunately, the book deals with the ability to travel to other dimensions/realms. So this means that just about any type of environment can be created.
Thanks for the suggestion, though.
My decisions? I am not (at the moment) making any decisions. I've been using 3DGS for far too long. However, I am concerned about the state of the current engine and its future. Thus, this thread.
As far as Esethel, I have that (and a few dozen other engines) already bookmarked.
