I just want to point out that I think some of you guys are overestimating the scope of the project, it's not going to be a huge open world like The Division or Dying Light, with tons of characters and a 12 hours storyline.

The map itself will be fairly contained and procedurally generated for the most part, with manual inclusions of landscape props and buildings, there will be different areas and different landscapes (open areas, like the one shown; industrial outposts, like Hadley's Hope from Aliens; underground monster "nests" area, like the bottom part of the map of his 2D sidescroller), but the overall world will be "small", the Dev has stated around 1Km square, the quality and the gameplay mechanics are what this project is currently focusing on, with an explicit attention to keep some doors open for future content, if the reception is good.

So, do not expect the impossibility of a complete AAA game right off the bat, it will have content, as much as he can cram in it with the time and money he has, he is aware of his limitations; what you can expect is good gameplay and features, the great content expansions will be added later on, once the game foundations are solid enough to give a solid gameplay experience.

You're suppose to open a door to a boss which is located further below, The shop wasnt finished so you cant get stuff there.

already killed the dude while spamming stamina boosts and dodges, turned the power back on and still cant seem to get out. perhaps a mini map would help in the future?

uhhhh the thing is, this one's on complete halt. The Dev's Harddrive broke so no updates from this one sadly....
He's doing a new third person build tho.

Procedural generation only gets you so far, he's going to either have to model things like buildings, items, props, etc himself still, or buy premade items from an asset store. The former is the better choice, but asset creation takes a long time, especially for 3D games. Sooner or later he's going to have to hire a modeller or it really will be in development hell.

He will model the assets by himself like he did for his previous project. The procedural generation is only to help him to make the terrain/landscape and such.

I think he's asking for the new game but theres no public build yet.
There's a Patreon build on Kemono though. You can get the June one

EDIT: I'm wrong, the GDrive link requires permission to use :( but at least the Kemono page has some snippets of H scenes etc which is cool

[...] The reality is that creating a game this complex takes time (a lot of examples out there), expecially if you are solo, he's making progress [...]
In that you are right.

Damn, I leave this thread for a while and it turns into a discussion.

I recognize that this developer has achieved a lot on his own, do you want to see a real milking?
Head over to the "Pure Onyx" game thread and you'll see what a real milker is.
