]]> 06 Jun 2007 11:11:28 admin:x This game has taken me three years to design. Its purpose is to allow free reign in the game to hack/learn/progress etc, on an almost epic scale. All players in the beginning are visible to each other, with many many in game modules and missions, jobs, listings, time frame network windows etc. As an admin in the game i will also administer special missions etc that players may do, to earn credits etc. An infrastructure has been coded over a long time, and i am preparing artwork mock ups at the moment as a teaser, as its a 2d and 3d game, incorporating huds and all 3d elements into a unique venture into the "space" of the internet. There is also a web based interface, and am hoping to start the mobile interface for j2me type phone to use a gprs/internet connection to monitor game status from afar. The game itself is too large to explain here, and for privacy/copyright reasons wont dive into details of gameplay s much. Its a fast paced, almost real time game requiring many skills, and yet with more than several variations to all gameplay aspects based on your skill, and the level you choose, it has unending possibilites. All the above, and, it will be
  • completely * moddable, as in, dont like your interface? code a DLL/module/my file format type and you load it in game. Allowing the engine to be used for INCREDIBLY large variations to the game. This game, i feel will be immensely fun to play, especially with your close friends, but an Rpg/mmorpg,single player,lan and even a teaching method. It obviously does not duvulge into real world hacking techniques, perhaps portraying a concept without portraying detail is what i mean. U do hack "realistically" and all sorts, yet it wont teach u to become a hacker.

    • Uplink was an inspiration, and many other things. A team wud be considered, but a large scale rewrite is taking place due to new ideas and core changes :P Either way, im hoping to just get some feedback and get my concept out there.

    Im open minded, so feedback is advised :)

    ]]>     17 May 2007 01:28:46     Clonk Rage Clonk is a highly traditional 2D game of action, strategy, tactics, and skill. It features multiplayer battles or cooperative settlement in random generated or predefined landscapes with unique physics.

    Build your base, mine for resources, develop technology, or simply knock your opponent on the head. You will have trouble finding a game with more variety in gameplay - download the trailer video to find out more.

    The game has been freshly ported from Windows to Linux and Mac and is currently in Beta. We would especially love feedback on the two new platforms.

    Prepare for an uncommon set of controls which will take a bit of time to master but which will then give you full control over all actions of your crew members in realtime.

    Clonk is fully editable. An integrated developer mode with a powerful and fully documented scripting language will leave nothing to be desired if you want to take things into your own and create your own game extensions as hundreds of community players have already done.

    The free demo will keep you playing for months. After that, register to get all addons and access the online league.

    Go to the Clonk Rage homepage for downloads and more information. Check out the forums to get in touch with the community and developers.

    ]]>     15 May 2007 11:04:14     Hostile Engagement The year is now 2024. Over the past three decades, small groups of drug runners joined forces to take control of virtually all drug distribution in the United States. This new organization, the Cartel, was formed to create a political body for the drug runners. By 2018, they were responsible for 98% of the drugs on the market. Drug usage rates among the general populus were at an all time high. To combat this, Congress passed a bill creating stricter punishments for drug possession, use, trafficking, and sale. Losing profits, the Cartel was desperate to retain their lifestyle. They began recruiting a militia, using drugs to pay their soldiers. Bases sprang up in urban areas, such as New York City and Los Angeles. As they continued to grow in number, rioting broke out nationwide. In response, Congress enacted another law creating a new branch of the ATF, OCAT. OCAT (short for Organized Crime Assault Team) used discarded soldiers are specialized in infiltrating and assaulting these gang army units.

    ]]>     13 May 2007 11:43:12     Dark Skies Dark Skies, is currently in development, and is a major departure from other planetarium programs. This simulation is to be used for beginning to advanced astronomers by immersing the player in an accurate simulation of a night sky. Here, they can learn where the constellations are and how to star hop to planets, galaxies, and nebulae.

    Ever since I joined my first Astronomy Club and went out under a dark desert sky, I was overwhelmed by how difficult it was to locate constellations since there were so many stars. In the city it is a lot easier to locate constellations since light pollution blocks out the fainter stars, but is also difficult because the lights block out objects I would be trying to find. The hardest thing about astronomy is that it takes practice to truly learn the sky and to take into account for weather conditions, light pollution, and general driving distances.

    We decided to create Dark Skies so that astronomers could explore the stars and other objects that they have been wanting to locate before they leave home and make the 60 mile journey to observe.

    This is an online multi-player 3D simulator designed with TGE + AFX and is planned for release on Windows, Mac, and Linux. The simulation will create a simulated star party where up to 16 players can join and select one of 3 models of telescopes such as refractors, newtonians, or cassegrains. Players are able to use the telescopes to locate objects and can step away from the instrument without losing the location so that other players can look through the scope and learn where these astronomical gems are located.

    Dark Skies is intended for instructing, and for learning experiences at your comfort. Bob, your friendly ranger, will work along side of you to assure your progress and understanding of the mysterious dark sky above.

    There are several teams to choose from, each with their own strengths, weaknesses and values. Manage your team, recruit, promote, purchase equipment, upgrade but most importantly defeat your opponent.

    Each level takes place in a piece of unspoilt Earth terrain, A City with cars and people, Countryside with trees and goats or the icy wastelands complete with Penguins. Depending on your team's alignment, killing the natives will be a hazard or a bonus. try not to kill too many humans though or the Military will be on your back.

    ]]>     16 Apr 2007 05:58:18     Moon Base One What is the game?
    The game is a persistent online world that will connect kids from around the country to participate in an educational experience.

    Why create this game?
    The purpose of creating the game is to infuse the younger generation with a passion for science and technology and to help give them knowledge of cutting edge science in a format that they are readily accustomed to and less resistant to like a text book.

    Who is the game designed for, what is the target audience?
    The target audience for Moon Base One is students from middle school to early high school. The game, however will appeal to people of all ages who are interested in space exploration and scientific discovery, which will attract players from both younger and older age groups.

    Where does the game take place?
    The game takes place on the first commercial moon base created on the moon in the near future. There will be planned expansions to the game taking players to different planets/moons such as Mars.

    What do I control?
    Players will control a newly arrived worker to the base who will assist in many tasks in order to facilitate in the smooth operation of the base.

    How many characters do I control?
    Players will initially control one character per account to save on storage space and allow for easier verification of accomplishments and medal awards.

    What is the main focus?
    The players’ goals will vary as the game matures and new content is added. Initially players will be able to solve missions gaining their avatar many customizations such as the ability to use various vehicles, and add cosmetic changes to their avatar such as external lights, different player skins, and additional equipment.

    What is Different?
    There are very few examples of persistent worlds that are used as an educational tool, in fact I cannot honestly think of any. There is a huge gap when it comes to educational software entertainment software. Its educational games are pretty much limited to games such as math blaster, which not only just appeals to a very young audience, but ceases to be marketed past its small target audience. Moon Base One will be revolutionary in that it will merge both real life and the virtual in that in game accomplishments can reward the player with certificates and medals. Players will also learn about cutting edge real world technology so that adults can feel comfortable with their kids playing the game and view it as educational software.

    ]]>     14 Mar 2007 10:06:20     LambdaRogue In LambdaRogue, you play the role of the member of one the five religious orders of the underground country NeoTerr. Your mission is to travel down the river Styx and to find the reason why so many monsters come down the river since the last months. The river connects different populated areas with unpopulated wilderness in which you'll find dungeons to explore.

    Unlike many over roguelikes, LambdaRogue has a detailed story. Every of the five religions is bound to one character class, and every class has it's own view on the ongoing events, reflecting in different story texts and class-specific quests. So if you have won the game with one class, the other four classes provide a completely new view on the same events.

    Note: Currently LambdaRogue is still beta, so the story isn't fully implemented.

    ]]>     07 Mar 2007 10:00:14     Siege of Avalon : Open Source Siege of Avalon takes place in the fictional land of Eurale. Within Eurale are seven kingdoms: Nisos, Aratoy, Oriam, Fornax, Elythria, Cathea, and Taberland. The seven kingdoms united into an uneasy alliance and built a citadel as a meeting place, which was named Avalon.

    Within the land is a civilization of nomads known as the Sha'ahoul. Their religion values very highly the earth and nature and therefore they are against farming, the building of permanent structures, and similar practices which they feel destroys the earth. After discovering the existence of Eurale, they declared war on the seven kingdoms to eradicate their way of life.

    Many refugees of the destruction caused by the Sha'ahoul took shelter in Avalon. The seven kingdoms sent military support to defend Avalon and the refugees. To the people of Eurale, Avalon is seen as the last hope at stopping the Sha'ahoul. The Sha'ahoul and their leader, Mithras, chose to overtake the citadel by setting up a siege around it.

    The game begins with an entry in the hero's journal. The siege has been going on for several years. His brother, Corvus, serves as part of the military in Avalon. When their father dies, the hero feels that it is his obligation to inform Corvus of the sad news, so he becomes part of the crew of a ship sailing from Elythria to Avalon to deliver supplies. The Sha'ahoul manage to sink all of the ships except the one the hero is on. The ship reaches Avalon, but has lost most of its supplies. It is not possible to make a return voyage to Elythria and so the hero decides to stay at Avalon, inform Corvus of their father's death, and help out Avalon in whatever manner he can. The player gains control at this point and begins by speaking to Corvus and informing him about his father's death.

    TC:E is a modern world total conversion modification of the free, popular, stand-alone first-person shooter Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. That is, TC:E is an entirely free game, made by gamers, for gamers.

    TC:E is currently being developed by GrooveSix Studios and TeamTerminator. While TeamTerminator is known for the famous Q3 based TrueCombat series, GrooveSix Studios was initiated by retired TeamTerminator co-founder Coroner to develop a Return to Castle Wolfenstein modification that is not released. Thus, as very experienced Q3-based content creators, we hope to be able to serve the gaming community with a quality offering.
    Now, the most important question: "What can you expect from TC:E?" TC:E is a tactical-team shooter, set up in a modern-world environment. TC:E puts you into the role of elite mercenary soldier in the conflicts of two internationally operating forces.
