Argg... that guy is delusional *mad rant*. The entire article proves one thing: that they have an internal fairy tale story about them being the victim of evil customers who do not understand "what it takes to make a game".

I think there is one point though where their customers & backers are to blame (including me who kickstartered this game based on the teams background mainly): don't back a game that has only a nice render-video and no actual game-code in place yet. That they boast now that their video was worth millions just puts salt in the wound :(
Because what this shows is that there was no commitment to making the game at all and it was purely a money grab, i.e. give us money to start working and as soon as the money runs out we will stop working on it. While that mind set is fine for an employee of a large company, it does not work for starting & running a company. Of course bills need to be paid, but this kind of "no financial risk" mindset is bound to fail.

This together with some glaring technical mistakes makes me strongly believe that the people running Uber Entertainment don’t "understand what it takes to make a game" and I have lost hope that they will learn it :(

Can't wait for RA2 and Tiberian Sun support that should come in 2016 hopefully!

How can you nominate a game for a category? If I try to add, there is a system message that this game already exists or something like that, but it is not in the respective category.

Quoting: GuestDo you know some videos to learn 3D art? :)

There is plenty. One of the best sources is Blender Cookie:
https://cgcookie.com/learn-blender/ [External Link]

But you can also find great sources totally for free all over the Internet, no need to pay anything (but Blender Cookie is more convenient).

Maybe this also helps:

http://opengameart.org/forumtopic/making-a-musket-with-animations-finished [External Link]

Blender is generally the open-source 3D modelling app of choice, but Wings3D is also good and a bit more simple to learn (but it lacks animation features).

As usual with open-source projects: they are looking for contributors :) 3D art contributions are welcome as well as engine improvements (porting simplified ragdolls from Cube2?).

It's a cool game overall and it has Counterstrike like bomb-diffuse and Team fortress Like Team modes as well.

Have been playing this the last couple of days. The performance is very good indeed.

It feels much more "old-school" than Legend of Grimrock, in the sense that you really have to do micro-micro management of the combat already at medium difficulty levels and that there are quite frustrating difficulty spikes with the boss enemies (but you can lower difficulty the in the menu).

And while it is relatively light on story, it's kind of tongue in cheek and has a dry humor to it :)

I agree, a fully FOSS game based on this engine would be great, but at the moment that still seems far off.

Odd that it got all those negative reviews... at least the first hour game is great fun so far.

Does anyone else have horrible audio stuttering? I would really like to play this, but for now it's unplayable even on lowest settings :(
