Check it out, it's ScreenshotSaturday!
I think it's fantastic this used to take HOURS to render a single frame, and now it can all be done in real time!
I'm definitely liking the Myst vibes, the screenshots look great!!
Yeah, Myst definitely holds up today because of the imaginative environments and deep atmosphere.
We see heaps of much prettier games nowadays, but few come even close to the Myst series in that regard.
Now, in the golden age of game developing, beautiful things can be made and it doesn't require studio connections or millions of dollars- just talent and drive.
Looking forward to the trailer, Eeronaut. This is right up my alley!
I'm reminded of what John Carmack said in
Masters of Doom:
In the information age, the barriers just aren’t there. The barriers are self-imposed. If you want to set off and go develop some grand new thing, you don’t need millions of dollars of capitalization.
You need enough pizza and Diet Coke to stick in your refrigerator, a cheap PC to work on, and the dedication to go through with it. We slept on floors. We waded across rivers.
A really inspiring quote I find myself coming back to if I ever feel a pang of demotivation <3
Also we're still making our way through some scheduling conflicts, should be sorted soon!
