The Isle : RevelationsOpen world survival craft set in the golden age of piracy!:emoji_8:

[elder ledge]

Amazing level design! How far along are you in the gameplay?

[little fractal]

I'm getting there lol. Working on AI atm. Mostly the sharks. The rest are pretty easy. Should be in alphas by December 2023. At least that is my goal.

@elder ledge Thank you!

[elder ledge]

Nice! What other mechanics are you planning to incorporate?

[little fractal]

Currently it has the normal crafting systems. With several work benches. Advanced crafting. Working on a ship building system and upgrade system. Will have a lot of under water exploration. For new ship parts for craft/upgrading. First person story driven survival craft. With a multi-player sandbox mode as well.

[elder ledge]

That’s really awesome! Wow!

Do you have a studio that works on this full time? Or is it a passion project of yours?

[little fractal]

Currently solo project. Working mostly full time. After my crowd funding campaign I plan to hire 2 more people to help speed thing up.

[little fractal]

If all goes well 🤞

[elder ledge]

Exciting!

[little fractal]

Fianly have the sharks working the way I want. Diving down now. Looking more natural.

Just for fun. Shark warning lol. If you are not into that kinda thing.

[little fractal]

Thought this looked cool.

Adding the global wind. I don't want it to not sail into the wind so it will reduce the speed by 75% but not stop completely.

Working on the raft mechanics atm...

Still have to add a skeletal mesh seat so I can attach the player. But that's the easy part. Tryingg to get the sails working the way I want.

[sweet coyote]

well thats my idea out the window loool i absolutly love it pal keep it up

[little fractal]

Sorry bro but yeah..... Lol. Will do for sure!

Working on some POI for loot boxes.

Some underwater scenes. Because, they are Awesome!

[little fractal]

Working on a few new systems.

Working on POI's

[lament umbra]

Actually, this is environment art

[lament umbra]

Good luck

[lament umbra]

Actually, graphics is insane. It's like watching a movie

But, It doesn't risk being boring if the island is ALL trees, rocks... Nature... Can be better if you add human sign. Like damaged sword, Broken Wood, etc... Try to Tell a story to player who visit that island. Not just make a infinite land. Also, what is you add enemies / npc / animals? I tell you, it's looks so nice, but it a Feels dead world. And even dead world tell story. Hope you don't get mad, these are just my suggestion. If you need helps ask :). I'm a game designer and level designer

[little fractal]

Hey thank you. This is still very early. I just started add POI's. There will be very little signs of life as far as people inhabited the island previously. That will go into the story arc. There will be a lot more ancient items. But this is island 1. I plan to have several with an ocean world map to tie them all together. Never get mad. All great points. Just not quite there yet lol. Still a million things to do. Building systems atm. Not to much on the landscape other then placing POI large props to get where things will be played out for the story line.

[lament umbra]

Yea, I had thought about it! Good luck!

[little fractal]

Still working on AI. And thanks. I appreciate it.

[lament umbra]

Also, If you need a level designer I'm open to work for free!

[lament umbra]

I will follow this post.

[little fractal]

Once I get a few things tegether the way I want I will put together a small team. I'll keep you posted on here. Just making sure everything is going to work before I jump off the deep end 🙂

[lament umbra]

I will wait! Good luck!

[little fractal]

Finally got UDS to work with oceanology. Weather systems will change wave height now. HQ video below. (Headphone warning Loud sounds Warning!!)

LQ Video below

[little fractal]

Back to building mountains and adding small stuff here and there. Got side tracked with Oceanology lol. Eye on the ball now!

[lament umbra]

Pretty impressive

[lament umbra]

How many people get on a ship? How many players is it designed for?

Ship looks Really big

[little fractal]

This is late game ship. It is only one person will be npc's later in the game after getting off the island.

Yeah this is the big one.

[lament umbra]

Oh, Ok ok.

[little fractal]

So you will start off being able to craft a raft only. Then search the depths to unlock ship parts to build bigger faster better ships.

You will have to dive ship wrecks to find ship parts to unlock the rest of the buildables.

The story line game will be single player. But after some time and adding to the team. I would like to make it open coop for just exploring with friends. But, that will come later. As a solo dev I can't do all that in a timely manner. Unfortunately. The story line is built around being cast away and loneliness of the isle. So that is a must for a little bit.

[vale crater]

Super cool work 👌

[little fractal]

Thanks

[little fractal]

Fleshing out the ocean floor. Getting the Shark AI added to the game. Still very rough but getting there.

[little fractal]

Dropped DevLog #1 on my game a few hours ago. Going into more details on the idea of the game and game play. https://youtu.be/sbgtySV3Bu4?si=EtON-1RKrZp5WkBe

[glacial siren]

This looks awesomeman! do you plan on making a story for it?

[formal pine]

[little fractal]

Yes, this is a story survival game. With a few surprises 🙂
