Hi everyone, we are a small UE5 development studio that pivoted towards adult game development. For more than a year, we have been working hard, creating adult sci-fi RPG called Gate Noire.As you might assume, we are bunch of nerds and weirdos, but we all share passion for gaming, world-building and good storytelling. Initially, given our previous experience, we thought it will be easy and we will have our game ready for alpha release within several months. Then we got little greedy and our scope just blew out of proportion, resulting in massive delay. We found out that creating games is not easy but through trial and error we persevered and now Gate Noire can finally meet the world as early alpha release.
So, what is Gate Noire all about?
"It was supposed to be just another mission. It will be boring they said. They were wrong and now the world needs a new hero. Hero of a new kind. Bold, brazen and ballsy. However, first you have to deal with a memory loss of giant proportions and hot nurse coming your way..."
Year is 2123 and you wake up as a nameless hero/heroine on a Lunar base, stripped bare of your memories after surviving through what appears a failed multidimensial mission. But not everything is as it seems and you have to find out what is going on. World got pretty much dystopic, but people do not seem to care as there are lots of things that can ease your mind and let you forget the garbage that is fed upon you. Drugs, sex, weird religious cults ... anything your fantasy desires. But behind the scenes, there is a war ongoing. War for dominance. War that can shatter the world unless someone can prevent it. And you guessed it right, that someone will probably be you. But do not despair, it is not as you will not have fun during your journey..... Exploring alien worlds, alien races and their kinky cultures have always been a dream of yours.
What makes Gate Noire stand out?
We grew on RPGs. Gothic, Witcher, Dragon Age, Neverwinter Nights, Baldurs Gate, Star Wars KOTOR and many more. These titles massively inspired us. Not in terms of scope, as we do not aim that high, but in terms of several features that we want to bring with Gate Noire.
1. Narrative Anchor
World building and storytelling is a very important aspect for every RPG. Even if you will ultimately be creating your own story, a good world setting and characters around you will provide you with something to build your story around while leaving space to grow your character as you see fit. Although this might not be considered as a feature, we think it is very very very important.
2. Fully dynamic realtime adult Interactions
This one will either be our breakthrough or we will break all our teeth trying to develop it. We want you to have FULL control over what your character do during sexual interactions. No prerendered content unless we cannot avoid it (as in case of some cutscenes). This system will allow you to do basically any action possible. You want to put your hand on this exact place, you go ahead. Want to stick your body part there? Fine by us. Everything will be dynamic and other characters will adapt to your actions and movements. It is crazy hard to implement but we are not giving up. With our previous experience and all the capabilities of Unreal Engine at our disposal, we shall make it happen. We currently have a working version but it is still bugged so much that we decided to omit it from alpha release for now.
3. Respect / Influence system
As you will progress through the game, the world will start reacting on you and you will have more influence on people there. Previously forbidden fruits will open up to you and you will be able to shape the world of Gate Noire.
4. Small scale multiplayer
Your game will act as a server and you will be able to invite several other players to share your kinky dungeon with. Did we say kinky dungeon? You bet. Check the next feature.
5. Possibility to create your own base
Fancy a villa? Or would you rather have a decrepit dungeon for your dark desires? Gate Noire shall provide and it will become part of your in-game story.
6. Use Unreal Engine to create your own mods (as separate worlds accessible through multidimensional gates)
When they are ripe and mature, we want to release our internal tools, so that others can create their own content for Gate Noire.
And more based on funding (such as voiced characters).
Whoah! These are pretty big goals. What is the current state of Gate Noire?
We know. But we already dedicated a lot of effort to Gate Noire and we have enough momentum to keep it going till it yields something that we can be truly proud of. Last three features will probably not be ready soon and might require more funding but that is a reality we are prepared for.
Our Alpha release currently contains first large in-game area, several quests and few sexual interactions that you need to find and unlock. Oh, and many bugs ...
If you will unlock any bugs, please send them our way. We will be rewarding bug hunters with early builds and special in-game content.
What are you doing here?
We want to be part of the community and we want you to play our game and tell us what you think of it. At this point we are hungry for any criticism that can guide the direction our game will take in the future. Help us to make Gate Noire possible. Mainly by playing the game but if you will find some spare change, you are very much welcome to go to our Patreon and help us with the funding.
Shut up and take my money! But where are the links?
We will be sharing all the links the moment we are approved in this community. We have a website, Patreon and Discord. All mostly empty as this is our first major public reveal post.
