G.R.U.N.T.S. OUT NOW!!

BUY G.R.U.N.T.S. - Episode 1 HERE!

English:
G.R.U.N.T.S. is an episodic first person adventure. Each episode follows a certain scheme. Parodies of classic videogame cliches aswell as playing with the perception of the unique graphical style open up a new depth of the game world.

The story is predictably simple: Some guy wakes up in a videogame. He does not really know how he got here, but since a big breasted woman (of course) and some guns (obviously) are at play, he decided to play along in defeating the evil alien virus (what else?) to get back home.

The main focus of the game is it to explore the world and the humor in this graphically fascinating new world. Of course there is a fair batch of action, still greeted with the strange humor of the game.

G.R.U.N.T.S. - Episode 1 KAUFEN!

Deutsch:
G.R.U.N.T.S. ist ein First Person Adventure im episodischen Format. Jede Episode folgt einem gewissen Schema. Es werden klassische Videospielklischees aufgearbeitet und durch den Kakao gezogen und es wird mit dem einzigartigen Grafikstil gespielt um neue, faszinierende Schichten der Spielwelt zu erschaffen.

Die Handlung ist denkbar einfach: Ein Mann wacht plötzlich in einem Videospiel auf. Er weiß zwar nicht genau, wie er hierher gekommen ist, aber da er hier von einer großbusigen attraktiven Frau (natürlich) nicht nur mit Informationen versorgt, sondern auch mit Waffen (selbstverständlich) ausgestattet wird, die ihm helfen sollen, gegen den bösen Alienvirus (was auch sonst?) zu bestehen, stimmt er dem Wahnsinn zu, um wieder nach Hause zu kommen.

Der Gedanke des Spiels ist es hauptsächlich, neben dem sehr eigenen Humor und dem simplen, aber wirkungsvollen Grafikstil, die Spielwelt zu erkunden und Rätsel zu lösen. Selbstverständlich kommt dabei die Action auch nicht zu kurz. Doch auch dabei schlägt sich wieder der schräge Humor durch.

there are only three four textures in this project:
black, white, tile floor and black/white dots.

each outline is placed manually on each edge. each single edge. its not textured.

there are NO SHADERS at all on the models. everything is modeled (courtesy of achaziel and Morten_Storm)

the only shader is a small snippet written by Chris B. that removes the mipmapping and texture filtering to achieve the pixelated effect.

After watching the video I'm a bit disappointed.
Gameplay is not what I expected from the screens.
Anyhow good work so far.

Da mich der Style sehr an einen Comic erinnert hätte ich auch die einschlägigen Elemente davon erwartet.

Ein Comic übermittelt nur einzelne Ausschnitte aus einer Geschichte und wird deswegen mit Texten und unterschiedlichen Blinkwinkeln ausgestattet.
Storywichtige Elemente sind besonders hervorgehoben (z.B.fett).

Auch gibt es selten Egoperspektiven damit der Leser sich ein Bild vom Akteur in der Szene machen kann.

Ich habe einen spielbaren Comic erwartet mit Textepanels in den Ecken, welche die Situation erklären. Evtl. Gedanken des Helden (per Sprachausgabe oder als Denkblasen). Perspektivwechsel in dramatischen Situationen (oder noch besser) andere Perspektiven in einem eigenen überlagerten View/Fenster.
Eine exzessive Verwendung von den in Comic üblichen Action-Sprites (eines habe ich bei deinem Spiel ja mal geshen (Bang, POWWW, Zzzzzzip, FLUP, WOSCH, ...)

it's look like a 2D game not a 3D ! but it's 2D in 3D ! grin i think a good game has a good and colorful level and good gameplay ,like Asassins creed 2 . did you play assassins creed 2 ?
i think it's comic game , it's better to have a history and comic pictures for game history !

Have a good time ! laugh

its lke a layton riddle this text...

well, its not a comic. i havent thought of it as a comic. there are no panel in panel stuff things. there are some comic things but very little of them.
im sorry if i gave you the wrong impression, but the text clearly states that its a first person adventure with shooting. and thats what i do.
that doesnt mean that its completely comic free. in fact, (and you cant see that from the screens or that one video) there is alot of humor in the game. also, there are player thoughts through voice acting and some description stuff, but voice acted not through panels. so the elements ARE there, just differently wink

i am sorry it didnt turn out the way you expected. but maybe you can still give it a chance and check it out once its done. maybe you find some nice things you like laugh

Like any game, each person have it'w own vision how should
be a game or a perfect game !
So don't expect to please all people with the game.
Each of us have it's own garphic and game style preferences.

Go to the end and fisnih it laugh

Killer 7 was a really great game with unique style also !

@mercuryus: I don't know german, but using Google translate I think I understand what you're saying. I agree with Icevalk, it's clearly stated that the game is an FPS, not a comic book adventure (although the last screenshot does seem to suggest that the game has a comic book influence).

@ratchet: your post counter is at 999!
