AfterMath is an FPS MMO. We are currently working on a demo for one of the PvP minigames to be featured in the full version of the game. AfterMath will be a fully free to play game, with vanity/ease microtransactions. We may offer VIP subscription services, but we do not want to impact gameplay with the amount of money that people spend, but to allow more enjoyment to the game through purchases. We are currently accepting volunteers only. Upon release of the game, those volunteers on the royalties list will receive royalties upon Manatee Studios making a profit from the game.

Foothold Demo Development
Things are plodding along, and we're beginning to see some development taking place.

The main male demo character model is finished, and is awaiting rigging so he can be animated. The face that is painted on him is actually the face of the developer who painted him. Take a number ladies!


Vegetation is slowly being developed, and will soon be implemented into the map. We're playing with different ideas for grass and foliage.


The log walls are almost done. Their developer is working on the last bits and pieces of the stairway for the walls, and then they should be ready to be placed in the map.


We've released the AfterMath Foothold Demo GDD to the public. Download it here, and see where we're headed!

AfterMath MMO Development

  1. Our writers are busy in a flurry of typing! Faction ideas, mob ideas, environment ideas, and equipment ideas are being brainstormed right now, and what we're coming up with is tremendous! We're excited to finish the Foothold Demo and get working on the real game!
  2. We're going to need some concept artists in order to get some of these ideas put into a picture our modeling teams can see. If you would like to do some concept art for us, please visit Manateestudios.com

What's Next?
Our prop team is concentrating on designing buildings for the Foothold Demo map. We'll be building models for the map itself, like vegetation, ruins, and player owned buildings.

Our character team is busy working on new equipment, weapons, clothing, and armor for the main male demo character.

Once we have something of some real substance to show you, we'll post another irregular update that will include a video of development footage. We'll have the walls, a couple buildings, and an equipped demo character moving around in game to show you. =)

So until then... Go eat some briskets and be a fat, happy Manatee!
