Hi guys,
Yes, we do check this place, but no offence taken (smile).
Thanks for asking this question. Sander and I have been busy with a lot
of things with our company Creative Heroes (http://creativehero.es) and
Extant was shelved because of other projects and priorities
(unfortunately we do not have all the freedoms we had as students
anymore (smile)).
That said, we never stopped discussing the possibilities of a full game.
You might also remember us asking this community for input on what you
guys want a while back. We also closely monitored the developments
related to the excellent Swamp and other audio games. More recently, we
have put Extant back on the agenda as our potential next project. This
is because we believe the premise of Extant is quite cool and it is
really the type of project we want to be doing :-) And we've had some
nice ideas taking Extant up a few levels. We don't want to create
another "zombie shooter" (by the way: who ever said it Extant featured
zombies...?) but to create a exciting and deep survival experience (and
maybe leave out zombies altogether ).
We are definitely interested in doing a Kickstarter or Indiegogo- type
crowdfunding of some sorts to realize such a project. But we want to be
very careful with that, as there are quite a few things to consider with
such an approach. Also, before such an venture, two important steps need
to be made:
1) we need to know what we want Extant to be
2) we need to know what you want Extant to be
We think the premise of Extant has potential, but do you think so too?
What would you like to play? What do you love about Extant, what do you
miss or don't like? On what preferred platform would you like to play
Extant (desktop, mobile)? And, harsh but realisticly, what would you be
willing to pay for such an experience?
So again: thanks for asking this question (good timing!). What are your
ideas?
Best regards,
Richard

Way to encourage the man, eh Shaun. Now we just have to hope that the
developers don't bother to check this place.
Long live peace, positivity, and moderation... that too.

Hmmm I have forgot about that game, it was a nice concept, a nice
bridge between swamp when swamp was not that big.
I am not sure what worth it would have bar crap all.
The atmosphere was nice, something swamp has not totally got just yet
and probably won't have as much of.
I can't remember anything else that stood out.
It was a concept demo ofcause, swamp sertainly has better zombies,
and target finders radars etc.
We have more weapons than extant ever had and more kits.
The sfx and music were really good as well as aparently the graphics
and such but I don't see any real future for something like this,
unless it can take another tack.
Extant was released in a time where your average horror game for the
blind did not exist.
Now there is almost to many both for the computer and portable
devices like the i phone or the android.
Not to mention those thathave the cash or are hard core enough and
adventurous enough to get an xbox or ps3 psp etc.
Extant was fineish when we were getting started.
As a starting block I think it was good because it kept people interested.
Now its totally crap and useless though saying that not much of the
engine and such was shown as it was a really early concept released.
I am not sure of its place though.

Hi.
Does anyone know whatever happened to the extant demo back in 2010? Did
they
just give up on it? It had such cool sounds and stuff! Maybe someone
should start a kick starter campaign to start it up again. I would really
love to see that game go somewhere. Nothing else like it out there sound
wise.
