Vapourware Bloom: Memories - a new kind of action adventure RPG by Studio Fawn

[Davaris]

Very interesting update.

 

[Studio Fawn]

Thanks This update clears the way so I can do an overview of the combat next time (since using this last mechanic is pretty powerful combat wise, and creates pretty interesting combat options on its own).

Your concept artwork is incredible.

Thanks :D

 

[Studio Fawn]

Another update today Covering a bit of the combat, but it is a pretty large subject so I'm going to have to dig into it more in another update

[Studio Fawn]

Heya again Did another update the other day of more combat ( http://www.kickstarter.com/projects...e-of-a-kind-action-adventure-rpg/posts/435293 ).... and in the meantime, I've been messing around with some new styles.

 

[Zed]

that's some mighty fine artistry.

 

[Excommunicator]

Excellent artwork. I can't imagine why there are not more hipsters supporting this game on visuals alone.

I think you should find a desperate way to get more exposure. It's a disgusting world we live in so you might want to use the cheap tactics that everyone else employs and bring the transgender-developer angle to the forefront. Make your self a viral product. Do a couple of interviews with game review sites and play up your superficial traits. You have what is required to get a viral product, but you have to take that uncomfortable first step. You'll be set for a long time to come if you can manage that.

RPS is on a feminist frenzy right now, maybe you could use that to your advantage somehow? I dunno, if you rattle the cage of the internet assmonkeys by complaining loudly about the privileged CIS scum that run the industry etc. you might get more coverage. Use lots of buzzwords if you do.

 

[Jaesun]

What is the reason you are adding combat to this @Studio Fawn instead of doing just a classic Adventure game?

If I understand correctly they're going for Zelda-type game and that's mighty fine, especially with this fantastic artwork.

 

[Aikanaro]

You should edit your first post and put a link to the new kickstarter - I assumed you'd already failed when I first had a look.

The game looks great.

 

[Crooked Bee]

I've updated the OP.

 

[Infinitron]

I've updated the OP.

OP is a newspost from November though

I see humungous shoulder pads have permeated every corner of video game art design.

Because you guys wouldn't give me a new thread ~_~ lol...when the kickstarter went live I sent the staff an email with the new campaign asking to get a new thread , and you guys went "ehh, nahh".

I think you should find a desperate way to get more exposure.

Maybe I could find a 9 year old girl to build the campaign around :D and how boys are icky and mean and stuff. No wait... even better....she will be a tranny!!!!

lol this is how real armor is (for longer ranged thing, like archers, you wear it on just one side of your body...the side facing the enemy).

I'm no longer posting news, but if the codex posted something about every single request in the inbox... there would be enough KS posts to warrant KickstarterCodex.

It sure helped the famed Arkh Project

I think no one asks for posting every single request in the inbox as a news item ? But this dev was posting here about the game before the kickstarter began (if I recall properly) and it would have been decent to at least make a newspost about the new indiegogo campaign starting. It's up the the staffs discretion of course, but it's not fair to classify this the way you just did bro.

how is my whiteknighting skill

Judging from what happened in this thread I shouldn't even have posted about it the first time. But what do I care now.

Yea, when I first dropped by (actually found the thread after it had been up a while and people were talking all sorts of made-up stuff that I dropped in to correct) everyone jumped on me because "lolz, just concept art and models, you are a noobz and a tranny" (along with all sorts of hipster stuff? And how privileged I was for running a kickstarter?). Then I got pissed because, seriously, wtf?

You guys were being serious asses (and completely out of line about everything, which I went on and proved you wrong ...but you still hold it against ME?).

Oh, then I went and kept making a game ~_~ Went on a show ~_~ And was praised by Jenova Chen and Brian Fargo for what I'm doing (along with a range of others) as I keep working and producing work that rivals work from multi-million dollar projects.

And yea, I get it, you had no clue who I was and you like jumping on the new person (cool bro).... so, I let it slide and come back... and still some douchbaggery afoot (suggesting I do tranny porn and then POSTING tranny porn in this game thread was hella classy <3 nice work). AND for some strange reason you still have a grudge against ME? Awesommmeeee

But nah, I totally see why you are mad. No wait, I don't?

 

[Zed]

What reason would I have to be mad about anything? Like I said, I stopped posting news. Why anyone else didn't post about it - I don't know and I don't care.
I have only complimented your work so far.

Ohh, I thought you were saying from that last comment you shouldn't have posted about bloom the first time I thought it was strange, since you have been in favor of the game

 

[Studio Fawn]

Anddd another update today. This time covering a bit of where Bloom started at and how it continues to evolve artistically.

[EG]

It just doesn't look like the sort of game I'd want to play. The combat, while interesting, just doesn't seem fun to me, and I'm not interested in an adventure game with combat I'd perceive as a constant nuisance.

The art itself is beautiful, though, and much of the presentation is good.

 

[St. Toxic]

I pledged, but mostly to see if you'd do a tranny porn stretch-goal. Other than that, I have to agree with EG; not my kind of game.
