GAME F.A.Q:
What inspired you to create this game?
I've always loved video games, along with writing stories. The more and more video games I played the more and more I realized that the Video games were getting more into a futuristic world. I prefer games with setting from back in the older times, without guns, bombs, and laser weapons. Game that work on different skills rather than gun mods and things of that nature. Games with gardening skills, cooking skill, majic, ranged, melee etc. A game with a wider variety of play for different kinds of players.
What is the storyline of the game going to be about?
The game currently has 3 different story-lines, all still under group review. The reason there are three Is we are still debating on if its going to be an online mmorpg, or more like a game you would play on the Xbox or playstation consoles but have it multi-player online abilities.
What kind of game will it be?
If you mean by play style it is going to be mediƦval fantasy genre.
Can I help you with concept sketches?
Anyone Is more then welcome to help out or donate concept ideas and sketches, for characters, weapons, attire, creatures, etc.
Are you working on the game alone or do you have a team?
This game is a group effort. There are currently 7 member to our team, and we are still open for more members.
How long do you expect to make this game?
The total expected length of the game will depend on which storyline and game play we finally decide on.
How long do you expect the main storyline to take to beat?
So far we have it planned out to be over 52 hours of play, but possibly will be more.
What style is the Game itself? ((Rpg, mmorpg, etc))
The style we are ultimately going for is similar to WoW, but more like dungeon siege. If you have never played dungeon Siege. It is a game similar to WOW, but it does not require internet, nor does it require additional payments. It will have a free trial available to all. Free trial does not expire, but you can only reach a certian portion of the game before you have to officially purchase the game. Only additional Payments are required if you want a premium membership(Not required to play the game) and additional downloads. Along with that you can play on pvp servers similar to wow, but you also have the option for strictly friend based servers, or single player.
How many people are you looking for for concept art?
Different class based people, honestly I am just doing some examples for my group to consider a furry based game. If It stands then I may propose a regular RPG with main characters based on peoples submissions.
How long has the idea been in development?
We have been working on the development of the stories for over 7 years now.
Are you going to be making profit off of this game?
A small group will have the money, but the money from sales will go towards marketing and game modifications. We will not take credit for the character creations/designs unless they are our designs.
Will my or anyone else's character be a specific character used within the game?
Right now the characters are strictly for examples, for me to show the group, the characters may not make an actual appearance in the game. If said character does make an appearance in the game, proper credits will be given to the owner of character. The owner of the character is also allowed to do their own characters voice recordings.
Will the characters just be used purely as examples for sketches to show the group?
Currently they will be used strictly as examples, and nothing more unless discussed with you.
Can I play the game if/and when it comes out?
Of course you can!
If my character gets used in the game, other that the proper credits, do I get anything else?
If you character is actually chosen to be a main character in the game you will be offered many things with it.
1) you are allowed to be one of our game testers through the building process.
2) You are allowed a free copy of the game.
3) You are allowed free down loadable content dealing with the game.
4) You are allowed free unlimited premium member ship if we build the game as a mmorpg
If you have any further questions feel free to ask them and I will add them.
Thank you!

I'm confused.
That's why I am doing the free art...
For character concepts to show the group...
Thought it was to be a board game?
Really need to keep my skills up when I finally manage to get a job.
You have to understand though this is not a funded project it is done on our own time.
skills up and I can take the opportunity to work on things I suck at. I have a degree in game development so I shouldn't
be completely useless.
To me it sounds like you guys took or are taking a top-bottom approach. Working on story and what you want to do in the game
first then going to the bottom to where and how the mechanics work.
would be impossible to program or to suggest better alternatives. Game is planned to be 3d or 2d?
Fighting style: uhm...Range
am i the first one that actually did it correctly
I'd love to test it once it's ready for a try. Just hope this POS I'm using can run it >.<
Btw; I don't have any concept art for them, but if you need any Creature suggestions, I've got dozens I could suggest to you if you're interested. Gimme a holler sometime if you need some ideas; as a novelist I've got plenty!
We are making it with high graphics, but shouldn't kill most systems.
That would be very much appreciated
Ah, good to know. It seems like every computer I've had can barely even run older games... although then again, this one has Windows 7 so it can't run older ones at all. Oye vey...
Alrighty; gimme a shout if you'd like some ideas. I don't have any arts of the creatures but I know them all by heart so I can describe them very thoroughly.
I know that feeling.
ok.
When abouts are you looking to get it completed?
But once we finalize which storyline then we will have a better estimate on the time we are looking at.
Well if you intend to use my character in this game since you said you liked it, i would give permission and full support to it :3 after all, i always had a thing for Role Playing games, despite i don't play any right now.
and the voice idea could be nice, it would really help people get more of a fell to their characters hehe :3
just to make sure, it will be playable offline right? because currently i dont have anything connected to the internet that can take heavy graphic games.
but anyway, im full of idea, if you need any, i could come up with something :3
