Preview Copper Dreams Preview Video - Kickstarter and demo coming soon

[Infinitron]

Tags: Copper Dreams; Whalenought Studios

A day later than expected, Whalenought have released the preview video for their next game, Copper Dreams. It's a combination setting trailer and alpha gameplay demonstration, with some cool snippets of vertical exploration, tactical maneuvering and UI, though no actual combat. The 80s sci-fi vibe is awesome. Check it out:

We’re very excited to share a preview video for Copper Dreams showcasing some setting and gameplay details! While this used our tech demonstration assets you can get a glimpse at where we’re headed in that brave new world of 3d, as well as some mechanics.

We have another post in the works detailing the Health and Resting system which enables a lot of the systems happening in the game, and is the foundation of the Burning Candle ruleset. We also will be having some news for the Serpent in the Stagehands expansion, so stay tuned for that.
​

At the end, the video teases a Kickstarter and a demo, "coming soon". Prepare your wallets.

 

[Jedi Master Radek]

Turn based combat! Yeah!

big kid: hey you been playing a lot of the latest computer role playing game for windows operating systems, COPPER DREAM™?

little kid: naw my CYBERPAIN™ threshold is too low i can only play for a few minutes at a time or i risk permanent damage to my neural cortex.

 

[Melan]

Is that voice actor Stephen Russell?

 

[Diggfinger]

Awesome! Gonna back this.
Surprised by the 3d character models and general look of the game.

 

[LeStryfe79]

You're suppose to mute the video and play this for background music:



I'm pretty proud of myself right now.

It matches perfectly if you synchronize it right at the start. Go ahead. Try it. I dare ya.

 

[Ninjerk]

Haha, graphically reminds me of PSX MGS. Can't wait.

 

[Jaesun]

 

[oldmanpaco]

So wtf is the game about? Something, something, generic evil government, something, TB combat, something, you're on an island.

 

[CryptRat]

Something, something, generic evil government, something, TB combat, something, you're on an island.

Looks good.

 

[Ninjerk]

Scifi TB thingie. Jaesun must be cumming

 

[mindx2]

Is that voice actor Stephen Russell?

I was thinking the exact same thing! Is it?

 

[aratuk]

My empty encouragement until money is put where mouth is.

 

[rrc2soft]

 

[Bumvelcrow]

So not pre-ordering? A damning indictment of your indifference. I'll be backing the kickstarter several days before it launches.

Edit: My first thought at the beginning of that video was 'Beamrider!'. Yes, I'm very old.

 

[Whalenought_Joe]

Thanks for post Infinitron !

Is that voice actor Stephen Russell?

I was thinking the exact same thing! Is it?

It's certainly uncanny, I thought the same thing when he sent it over. Astounded he could say that last line with a straight face.

Its actually the same guy we used for Serpent — he's the nicest guy to work with, we'll be using him for the next Vol campaigns as well until we need something feminine I suppose. But I'll see what his range is.

 

[SausageInYourFace]

Another turn-based cyberpunk RPG incoming while HBS is busy with BattleTech? First day backer here, thats for sure.

 

[Diggfinger]

So wtf is the game about? Something, something, generic evil government, something, TB combat, something, you're on an island.

Recipe for a classic game right there!

 

[Saduj]

Anyone know what exactly they mean by "turn based combat with time based resolution"?

Full text from website:

"Engage enemies in strategic, turn-based combat with time-based resolution. Execution time for a turn's actions adds an extra tactical element, and gauging when to attack, hide, intercept or engage in a full-party assault can turn the tide of battle in your favor.

The means to survival not only rests in strategic planning, but the tools and training at your disposal. A variety of ammunition and weapons carry different strengths for different situations, and skills like engineering and chemistry widen your range of tactics in combat."

Almost sounds like "execution time" = action points. I guess that is a selling point these days.

In any case cyberpunk "Escape from New York" on an island with turn based combat is pretty much a guaranteed purchase for me.

No it means the actions resolve in real time.

Thanks. Not sure how I missed that thread. Sounds pretty sweet.

Also, I know that '"Escape from New York" on an island' as mentioned in my last post is redundant.

Kinda hyped for this game. I really liked what these guys did with SiTS except for the crap(sorry for the redundancy) RTwP mechanics. This being turn-based and in a setting I particularly enjoy more(low-fantasy cyberpunki-ish dystopia by the looks) one can only expect good things.
