Heresy War Status Report

[Pinback]

I see Starlord was on their site a couple of weeks back asking the same thing.

[starlord]

Indeed I have but recieved no reply!Might you have any darkone? I know cOmas is often on the heresy boards, but I can't get to join him there (furthermore, I can't send him a PM)...

[sscadmin]

I sent c0mas a PM and he is pretty good about getting back to me. Last thing I heard from c0mas was that HW work was still moving forward.

[starlord]

OK! many thanks!

[starlord]

might comas actually post some new HW material soon? It's been a while since we last heard anything... Also, the HW boards should be tended to!

[sscadmin]

Yeah I know. Spam has taken over the forums there.I will try to PM c0mas and see what the status of HW is. This project has been silent for a while now unfortunately.

[starlord]

didn't you say you had a reply from him in june?hopefully, given the fact that they did release a demo, their project will continue...I've also accessed his facebook account, but no reply there either...best regards.mikael.

Yeah but it was just him letting me know that they were still working on Heresy War and that it has been moving slow. No details on why or when we could expect the MP demo.

[starlord]

OK! that's fine with me then: It's a good omen, and not as critical as the X32I business!Have you heard besides? development on it is continuing, even though it has been renamed void enmity! Great news there!

[starlord]

Yes!Comas talked to me: all is well! I'm sure he'll soon make an announcement himself.

Great. I PM'd him and still haven't received a response. Any info you can share about HW status Starlord?

Progress is slow, but still there."First ... it's not dead ... it just went a lot more slower lately.While we still plan a windows release, it is likely that we'll have a smaller ipad or iphone version first (just the instant action with some additional features). This will hopefully boost the team's morale and maybe will finance some voice talents.I was really trying lately to bring the whole team to the old (good) speed Cheers,/C0mas"that should reassure us all!

[sscadmin]

I spoke to soon, c0mas got back to me and stated basically the same thing. But I do think it is a good direction in the end to help build a following and get some really nice feedback on the gameplay elements. And of course it will give all the contributors some spending money and motivation to keep at it.I think most games are trying to develop on both platforms it just makes sense these days with long development times to try to monetize your game as much as you can. Because it costs a lot of time and money to make them usually.Now all we need is a timeframe for the mobile release?

[sscadmin]

Here is a little more feedback on the mobile version of Heresy War:
Quote:
Well, the plan is first to see the menus and the instant action on ipad (ipad because the resolution is alredy suported without changes to the menus ans HUD), then we have some ideas for some advanced singla player instant action (relatively easy to implement, without specialized level design)Deathmatch or cooperative play over gamekit is also an option, still I cannot promise this at least not for the first version.Well ... if the platfor goes well ... everything we design for pc (single player campaign or multiplayer modes) will most likely work on ipad/iphone too and ... I see no reason for not releasing new versions or addons (we currently support addons for both pc and ipad/iphone)

Now, how about some "Salvation Prophecy" news?

[Pinback]

Good to hear they are still around, maybe c0mas will post an update on the game at some point.

[sscadmin]

Any new news on if we will see a PC Heresy Wars soon, c0mas?

[snoopy123]

yeah...any news? ANY?Even on the dreambuilder's[/url] homepage, the last post is from 2013...and it's not about heresy wars. Does the company still exist anyway? Did they plan to release their project-pieces as opensource at least? Just played the demo again...it's so awesome!

I see c0mas login quite frequently so I am sure I can get a status out of him if I PM him. But Pinback is right they have been concentrating efforts on their mobile offerings.
