Hello all,

 

Thanks for all of the positive feedback!

 

Your interest has been very encouraging for all of us on the team. We have been 
putting a great deal of effort into our development tools and our upcoming 
first game and are very excited to share this with all of you.

 

Speaking of upcoming projects, although we will be wanting some beta testers in 
the future to help test out our various game systems, we are just not quite at 
that stage yet, but many thanks for the offers.

 

that is all we have for now, but we promise to give you guys a bit more 
information in the near future. In the meantime, thanks for all the suggestions 
so far, please do keep them coming. We can be reached at 
i...@ebonskystudios.com.

Re: [blind-gamers] a new developer Ebon sky studios

2018-09-11 Thread Damien Garwood

Hi,
With the number of wannabee developers we have who release applications 
that might be better described as toys rather than games, I can 
certainly understand your frustrations. On the other hand, it is that 
sort of comment that cause the genuine developers to want to turn that 
around and say "get lost back at ya". Just because we have a few loose 
knots doesn't mean we should tar all new developers with the same brush. 
They've announced their presence, and to me that suggests confidence. It 
may well be that they don't yet have a website, for the simple reason 
there's nothing to put up at the moment.

Personally, I'm looking forward to see what these guys have in store for us.
Remember guys. game development costs a lot of time, energy, patience, 
and money. First you have to design the game. Figure out what sounds and 
music you'll need. Figure out if you want human actors/narration. Try 
and obtain those materials (which, believe you me, if they're new and 
have no previous ground to work from, will cost an arm and a leg, likely 
meaning a lot of time will be spent saving up). Possibly program the 
game engine, and then the mechanics for that specific game.
If the name of the enterprise is simply an alias for a single person, 
that could further complicate the situation. They may have a family, a 
daytime job, health problems, you just don't know the background.
Whatever the situation, unless you have a dedicated team, making audio 
games is a tricky endeavour which requires a lot of planning and budgeting.
It took me two months just to develop a simple arcade game like River 
Raiders, and believe it or not, most of that time was spent with 
recording acting/narration sessions and editing the best takes, and 
putting appropriate effects on the finished material. And when I look 
back on it now, the only thing I'm really proud of with River Raiders is 
the water environment layering. Oh, and of course the successful 
eradication of the ridiculous irrational terror of the Meewah sound that 
I somehow acquired during childhood...Yes folks. You now know where 
meewah came from!

Cheers,
Damien.

Re: [blind-gamers] a new developer Ebon sky studios

2018-09-11 Thread Milos Przic
Hi all,
Good luck for the new developers, and let's hope that they will not lose 
motivation with us!
You asked for an idea, here it goes, and it might be very complicated to 
implement.
The games we almost do not have are those that have to do with see battles. We 
have Lone Wolf, but it is old and does not always work with the new system and 
screen reader versions. So I would suggest a game where you can either simulate 
a modern warship and do missions. Or, to add up an rpg feature into it, you can 
be a captain, and have stats like ship class/type, crew size, crew moral, crew 
professionality which can be divided in gunnery and cannons, missile handling, 
navigation, mechanics, fire controll etc. So during a battle, if some of your 
navigation crew die, your navigability decreases, same with the other stats, 
plus parts of the ship that also have impact on how the ship performs. For 
example, your ship gets hit and some parts get dammaged. The mechanics crew is 
at full, which determines that that particular part/functionality of the ship 
is repaired in a defined number of minutes or seconds, and it gets slowed down 
if in the meantime some of the mechanics get killed by another hit. A hit can 
also spread fire on the ship, where the fire controll crew steps in, and if 
they work slowly due to many having been killed, the fire spreads and dammages 
the ship and kills crew. As you do different sets of missions, you advance in 
your career and new, more complex ship types are unlocked, the ultimate one 
being an aircraft carrier. With the ship complexity the stats grow, so with the 
big cruisers and aircraft carriers you would have also flight crew and 
aircraft, that could be sent on tasks far from the ship and controlled from it, 
or they could patrol as the ship's security. The aircraft carrier could also 
controll an entire battle group consisting of different small-type ships, 
submarines and aircraft. Just a vague idea of what would really be a boom in 
the audiogaming market. I know, it involves a lot of research, coding and 
testing, but I know that it would be really popular.
Another thing we don't really have is a marcial arts game. A simple tournament, 
Street Fighter like game would also be cool, with an unlockable online play.
Once again, good luck!
  Miloš

Re: [blind-gamers] a new developer Ebon sky studios

2018-09-10 Thread Charlie

Hi:


Echoes from Levia, a $33.99 iOS or $42.99 android game, I'd love 
to play it, but of course, $33.99 is a ridiculous price, and also 
a risk I would not take due to the fact that I have never played 
it myself.



If CloverBit had promo codes, I'd give it a go.

its something I'd be interested in doing, as I haven't had a test job

Hello,

Good luck in starting your business.

It seems that we are currently more lacking in action games rather tan
RPG. If we take crazy party aside, the three or four last majorr popular
titles that have been released are solo RPGs: Echos of Libvia, A hero's
call, Manamon...

I'm not saying this to discourage anyone, that's just an observation.
Anyway, there can be as many possible RPGs than there are stories to tell.

So just be creative and make your best in what you believe.
Good luck and don't give up, whatever you are doing.

I'd like an RPG with more choice of how the game progresses, and more tactics 
in battle than just spamming the enemy with spells and falling asleep on the 
enter key, lol.

We have plenty of action games, its just most of them are online dramafests. 
Good, longform RPG's are not many, though, especially ones with good, complex
