Just announced! Early Bird Special! First 100 people to back Fantasy Toonz can get it for $20! Kickstarter.com

We will be placing a monument (a wall of names) in the game with all the names of the people who backed the kickstarter! Don't worry we will send an email out first to see what name you would like on the wall (nothing inappropriate please!)

Our Kickstarter is now Live! Come back us! :)

Someone voiced their concern about how the mod system would work so I am posting my response here for everyone to see. Let me know if you want clarifications on anything..
Just so you are aware, this isn't a make your own game thing. There will be mods but only for the single player version.. anything good in the single player version can always be brought into the mmo. What we have planned with player participation is basically you start as a small guild and as you get larger you add more lands to your community.. once you are large enough to be a city you can add your own dungeons and arenas. The idea is to let people create their own lands, arenas and dungeons using the assets that are already there (kind of like the sims or something similar) and adding that to the game as their empire progresses. The second option for those that are technically able is for them to use the unreal engine to create new lands, dungeons and arenas. We plan on having an asset group on unreal that people can download to their computer and use to create their areas with guidelines in place to make sure it is accessible to everyone. Then we can add it to the game. As far as new items created with new assets the players create we will have them on the message boards(forums) for voting and introduce them at different times of the year.. maybe each quarter we will add some of the highest player voted items.

While we have our own ideas on how we should implement modding into a MMORPG we would really be interested in everyone else's opinions. The closest we have seen is what Neverwinter has done. While interesting their method seems to detract from the storyline in our opinion. We are starting with items. Items can be created in-game to your specs with options of different looks, spells/skills and power. But while exciting, that isn't really moddable. That continues with the creation of your own lands all the way up to creating empires with their own dungeons and arenas.. but still, not moddable. While making a modable game is easier to do with single player (which we will have and will be moddable) doing the same thing in an mmo is way more difficult and we would like your ideas.
