Awesome to hear you've enjoyed Driftmoon so much! Thanks for telling us, Ladyravenskye! :)

If you're still eager for more adventure, you can go ahead and give some of the mods a go. They're just one click away through the main menu. ;)

Glad to hear you think so Yi-Kai! You're right, we have been working very hard, and doing so from the bottom of our hearts, while making Driftmoon. Your own game (Anne & Beanie, which is on indieDB), looks stunning, and seems very interesting as well! :)

Thanks Yi-Kai! It's nice to be remembered on Valentine's day with such a pretty umbrella, and with my own name too!

Your game looks beautiful, the art style is stunning! I always have a soft spot for games that come from the developer's heart - I think so both as a player, and as a fellow game developer. I hope your project will be a great success!

Glad to hear you liked what you played! :)

1. I'm not 100% sure if I understood your question correctly, but if you meant to ask if Driftmoon will get more mods / new games, I think it's pretty safe to assume that you most definitely will. We already know of quite a few that are on the way, and I think there'll be many more to come after we release, and word of Driftmoon, the editor, and the mod-sharing system reaches more people. :)

2. There already are some side quests in Driftmoon, but it seems that they're so much fun that people usually tend to do all of the quests. :) Like I answered just above, more full adventures are certainly coming through the mod-sharing system, I'm quite positive about that. And we may even make some ourselves, if we get the chance.

We're now very close to releasing the even newer beta (with the camera tilt enabled, and other graphical enhancements), so we've been putting all our efforts into getting that out for all of our players. ...It might maybe be a little bit late for the previous version? I hope that sounds alright to you? If so, you can expect the newer version as soon as we can finish the last NPC upgrades. The upcoming version is pretty cool - so we'd really like to give you all the chance to try that one next. :)

There'll most definitely be another update before final release. We'll give you our new tilt feature as soon as possible. It's already working surprisingly well! :)

The camera angle will be fully and easily adjustable while playing (probably with Page Up & Page Down).

Glad to hear that, plastic77!

By the way, the Driftmoon demo, our editor, and our built-in mod-sharing system is freely available at our site www.instantkingdom.com (pretty soon with the tilt feature enabled), and the adventure is already fully playable from start to finnish. :)

We're pretty happy with how it's turned out as well. :) And it's already working so well in our own tests, it'll most definitely be available to our players before the official release!

Here's how we're planning to make it work in-game: You can select your favorite viewpoint (anything in-between the limits) by using "page up" and "page down" - and you can change the view whenever you like.

Thanks UnholyWatermelon! We're very happy to hear you've enjoyed Driftmoon so much. :)

By the way, we've been recently working on a pretty cool new feature, which will be available after our next update - if you check back on our website (www.instantkingdom.com) later today, you'll see what I'm talking about. :)

Great to hear you've enjoyed the alpha, fortune_p_dawg!

We promise to make you a Desura update just as soon as we get the chance (we just have to figure out how to make one first)! We left on a little Christmas trip yesterday, and didn't have time to make one yet - but we're returning home before new year, and will put together a Desura update as soon as we possibly can. :)

(The technology Desura is using is unfortunately not compatible with the automatic updating system we have in our normal version of Driftmoon.)

You are really supporting a musician in buying the soundtrack, because 100% of the money goes to the composer of Driftmoon's music, Gareth Meek. He's a talented composer, and a pleasant fellow to work with, so we recommend him to other developers as well! :)

The music in this trailer is by Gareth Meak (http://www.garethmeek.co.uk/), and there's a lot of great pieces by him in the game.

And in my opinion (though slightly biased), when playing, the game is even much better than it looks. :) I've been doing quite a lot of testing - and playing Driftmoon is lots of fun (especially with the new alpha)!

Melodianne - - 22 comments @ Driftmoon is a 2BeeGames finalist!

It is the best game there, in my opinion (and it is winning at the moment, so I'm obviosly not alone in this)! Do go and cast your vote!! The competition has a few rounds of votes (one week per round), so also remember to visit&vote later in November!
