Development the last few months has been a weird ride.
A massively glaring problem was with the engine. As everyone knows, Torque Advanced was abandoned in favor of T3D. Which is great if you could afford it, but without a lot of extra time and money, switching to T3D or any other engine for that matter was difficult.
With new jobs and people becoming very busy or unmotivated, and a lot of other odd circumstances, it was the right time to move on.
While Crimson Crow is extremely close to a release, it is still a very long way away from ultimately being what it was intended to be. If this happened oh say a year ago when motivation was a little better and the engine was in better condition, things may have gone much better.
In retrospect, we all put a lot of hard effort and time into Crimson Crow, but it was by no means in vain.
I personally have learned so much from this project. Enough that when or if I start another project, I will never undoubtedly run into the same careless mishaps. I also feel that Crimson Crow is a chapter that will one day be re-opened in time.
I'm sure all of our watchers will be greatly disappointed, but you'll just have to keep watch and wait to see what happens!
no how dare such a good inde die. well best of luck guys and 1 day u may be back to work.
Sorry to hear that, but best of luck to you in the future.
Youknow what, I loved how this was going, and the attention you sunk into both the community (as small as it seems to have been) as well as the project itself, was and is astounding, I think I'll track the studio you've made just to keep an eye out for your future projects!
Me too :)
It's a shame to hear, hope that you keep on going with something else sometime, I'll definitely be there. Good luck to the team with everything.
Darn. This looked promising,but my opinion is one in a million. Good luck in your future endevours!
dam, and i just started watching :(
A shame, I'm looking forward to see what you might start working on next. :)
Sorry to hear the bad news, and I am glad you learned something from it. I hope you'll keep doing game development.
aww my bank hoilday just got sad :(
I'm really sad about it. you guys could try to put Crimson Crow as a mod for a game like Crysis or Battlefield, or, COD, I don't know!
I'm wathing this MOD since when had some videos from you guys doing the movements (really it was funny). So I think was really a lot of time, and, good luck for you guys, but think about what I've said.
Hug!
it is joke no?
Yes it's true. :(
uh and you have other project?
At the second? Not really.
:< man i was thinking this will be such a great success.
too bad, well good luck at your future work.
Nooo! I wasted so much time looking at your page and wanting the game to be released :P. Darn this looked as though it was going to be a really great indie! I wish you well on your next endeavor ninjadave.
Bah...things were looking great and I was really looking forward to further updates and eventual release :( oh well, these things happen...sad news, but hopefully the team has good luck with whatever they choose to do now.
Sorry to hear this.
But uh... Good luck and godspeed on whatever it is you decide to do!
It's a shame to see such a promising game die.
I hope you guys will one day have the motivation to complete it. For that reason, I'll keep watching!
Best luck for the future guys :)
This is disappointing. Oh well, I'm still looking forwards to anything you do in the future.
GIMME THE SHOCK PADS!
we need to resurrect this game!
So many good game ideas, 0% getting released.
Sorry to hear this Dave, catch you on IM some day.
Sadly, I'm rarely on IM anymore. So much to do sometimes.
