A Birthday Request

Then you would have no Crate Entertainment since he’s the founder and owner of the company. Good thinking there el_critico. :woman_facepalming:

The position of the buildings and the area looks really natural. I am really excited for this game. :sunglasses:

Sorry medea, I didn’t actually see this post, Zantai just informed me of the request for screenshots… I accidentally closed photoshop and didn’t save all the screenshots I’d taken this week, so in a rush to get something up, I posted them to FB since it seemed like it would be more widely visible and intended to re-post here later. Happy belated birthday though!

Haha, well, I appreciate the desire for a massive RPG and maybe one day we’ll do such a thing. However, having one success and then dumping all that profit into one big new project that requires all their resources is exactly how game companies go out of business.

A town builder is something I’ve personally wanted to do for a long time and it seemed like a good risk since it isn’t too expensive to develop and I am confident we’ll at least break-even, if not make a good profit. Since it doesn’t have a huge amount of content or art compared to an ARPG, it allowed us to keep half the team on Forgotten Gods and now those people are split between GD updates and new projects.

An RTS and / or bigger-scope RPG is something we might consider in the future if these current projects do well enough.

Then I’ll berate him firmly later Medierra. And thanks for the birthday wishes and the screenshots. :slightly_smiling_face: Hope to be hearing more about the new builder soon.

I’m surprised you didn’t use your Evil persona for the Pirate Logic thread reply. We miss him here on the forum too you know.

Good to have you back here big M. Don’t stay away too long please.

Ah good point, its been a while…

Well, next time we get an idiot on the forum you know who to call - Evil Medierra! :rofl:

Things happening in the town builder section of the forum :grava:

My goodness, this looks lovely!!

Thanks for the screenshots, guys. They look great! And thank you, Medea for requesting them. Now beg Medierra to give us a release window for New Year’s. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Also, I hope you’re feeling better.

Yes, much thanks Salazar. :slightly_smiling_face:

Don’t want to push my luck. Medierra will tell us when he’s good and ready. Just :pray: it won’t be too much longer before he shares more about it with us.
