Watching the video on the 206 update makes me believe this. At the end of the video he says he'll be working on a single player campaign. So after 5yrs he just says he's just beginning to work on single player campaign! That's ridiculous. He needs to hire people to finish this game or to make this an online mulch-player game only.

Are you sure he said he's only starting to work on it right now? Maybe it has been worked on earlier too.

... And you think making a working single-player game into a mp game is faster than making new levels/content? It's not...

There's a difference between making a game and making a single player campaign.

Also, isn't saying he's working on a single player campaign good? I was very happy to hear that news. Just because Wolfire can't spit out a game every year like the huge gaming companies, doesn't mean they aren't working hard to give us a fun experience. Shut up. Be patient. And Overgrowth will become something very enjoyable, if you can wait for it.

Whole game + Engine made from scratch only 2 guys, 1 does the coding and another does the art... do the math, also yeah David works all the time.

Another brilliant thread, probably by someone who has come here from Steam. You guys really fill my heart with hope. Such a fresh new breeze coming through here. It carries with it the fragrance of innocence, illusion, idiocy, ignorance and entitlement (Damn! Couldn't think of a synonym with I).
Really refreshing?

Totally different point: are you taking bets?
I'm calling anything you offer.

How about Incompetency?

I do have a certain fear that the campain + story itself will be rushed or lackluster. I mean, look at Lugaru. Aubrey is definitely a genius when it comes to the technical side, and obviously wants a very solid foundation before adding in game content, to the point where the OG editor will be equipped with mesh tools rivaling commercial 3D toolsets.
I think the best course of action would be to get at least one person who specializes in writing or level design up to speed with this amazing toolset in order to make a great game. That step cannot be understated, especially this late in development.

David is the coder and the guy who did Lugaru, Aubrey is the artist. Besides that tiny nitpick, I am worried about the same things you are.

Thanks for softening my heart . I will relearn patience.

Going to have to agree.

Even if this game doesn't get published, I personally think that the development in itself is an achievement. David's procedural based animations and development has honestly blown my fucking mind. Giving the community this engine, completely open to modifications and whatnot.... it's goddamn beautiful. Even if there is no complete campaign I am honestly glad I have been along for the ride this whole time, and now have such a fun tool to play around with. Even though it's not finished, our community has made so much content to share. This is what a gaming development community is all about.

Thank you Wolfire.

There's not going to be a multiplayer. He's doing the coding (hardest part) all by himself. There already is a game, and if David decides he can't do it, then I am 100% sure someone else will pick it up and finish it. Fuck you. Have a nice day.
