Hi
I'm Niklas Hansson the founder of Defrost Games
http://www.defrostgames.com/ we are a small Indie developer studio in Malmö Sweden and have been working on this project for almost 3 years now. Since we don't have any income from this we are either doing this in our free time or doing other works part time to support our indie dream.
So far it has gone pretty well and we are proud of what we have achieved, we still feel our game is very different to the clones of it that has appeared after our first trailer release.
Project Temporality is all about being time to your advantage and solve puzzles that just weren't possible before we have come to start calling this single-player cooperation but it's so much more than that, You aren't just creating clones that can help you, instead time is just a dimension for you to traverse as free and flexible as the other 3 you can move seamlessly back and forward and select that exact moment you want to spawn of a different time-line or just return to normal controls. of course some objects resists this and are protected by what we call a Temporality field which creates all kind of mayhem for you.
Making this game has been a huge undertaking as we had to create the tech and engine for ourselves from scratch as no existing middleware engine supports seamlessly moving forward and backward through time with effects/particles/animations etc updating which is probably the reason why games like tessalation don't allow you to move backwards in time but instead settle for letting you return to a known point without showing it or giving you control. We wanted more than that we wanted total control but in 3D so we had to make it ourself.
We just recently launched an indiegogo campaign because we realized there are some expertise like voice acting etc that we simply lack in house and has to hire in to allow the quality we feel we need(Swedish accent on actors ? No thanks
). To make in interesting our quirk is that we allow the funders to become Co-Creators with several tiers of perks that allows just this to happen they do cost a bit but thats only because they are gonna take a lot of time for us to handle and manage.
If this sound interesting please visit us at
igg.me/at/Temporality/ and give us your support and comments. I will open up a dev trhead here later to for a more open discussion about the project.
