★Welcome To The UnEarth Initiative....Enjoy Your Stay★ @UnEarthGame #GameDev #GamersUnite

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On


In a recent article we covered our pick of the Top 5 Video Games Related  Kickstarter Campaigns that are active at the moment and one that really caught our eye and got the creative juices flowing was UnEarth Initiative

 

So we decided to dig a little deeper inside this one and give it it's very own feature....

 

Here we go then, Welcome To The UnEarth Initiative by Inkling Games......

 

ENJOY YOUR STAY!



What Is The UnEarth Initiative? 


This beauty of a game is a science fiction video game created by veteran developers of the awesome Playstation 2 Ratchet & Clank series

This cool 3D Sim mixes a sense of humor and character with the gameplay of building and exploration on a previously undiscovered mysterious planet. 

The game is set in the 31st century, Earth is coping with overpopulation by sending its least desirable citizens on a poorly budgeted colonization program in outer space (probably sending them via Ryan Air)

After crash landing at the destination planet, the colonists you control set out to explore and survive on an brand new alien world full of danger and excitement.

This is where the trouble starts as it's not easy managing a rag tag crew of crooks and social outcasts.....

The key is therefore managing to band these delinquents together into a team and overcome their lesser points it is only then you will be able to build a successful colony.

 

What Gameplay Features Can We Expect?


The UnEarth Initiative is to feature randomized planet terrain, creatures, and plant-life. 

Players will need to master balancing their valuable time between building a secure base for their colonists, and sending out exploration teams who will search for new plants and creatures. 

Just imagine how cool it will be to Build elaborate underground bases for your colony!

In order to throw in another factor there will be the building of relationships with other alien races to manage so you'll get the opportunity to meet bizarre aliens and establish long-term trading relationships or unleash bloody feuds!

As-well as this you'll get to manage the personality quirks of your own colonists. 

There will also be random events, such as invading alien garden pests or a good old space plague!

One of the most exciting things about this game are your only real allies in survival, Man's Best Friend, the faithful "Rovots"

The cool thing about these little rascals is that colonists can undertake in game programming of the Rovots to serve their every need! 

Once programmed you can share your programs with other players to let others know what cool things you have got your Rovots doing....sounds brilliant!


How did UnEarth come about then?

UnEarth was first conceived a year ago, by Lesley Mathieson. 

She talked Peter Hastings into coding a quick demo of it, and the project has snowballed from there into a full-featured game in a matter of months!

★OTON X Video Game Console Latest News★ @EnGeniux #GamersUnite

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

Recently we told you all about the OTON X The Video Games Console That Creates Its Own Games......

Now We've Got Some More News On This Cool Games machine....So Read On


The OTON X Video Games Console is set to offer crowdfunding during its open beta of the console’s user interface testing. 

This is the first beta testing hybrid crowdfunding campaign ever to offer users the ability to sample a portion of the product before they actually back the project. 

The beta will have a weekly status update system to track progress.

There will also be a voting system based on feedback from OTON user interface testers.

The unique selling point for the OTON X console is that it's the first autonomous game console to self-create game levels and games without a full-time developer.

The system goes about creating games using a custom algorithm with preset design parameters and a sprite database to create custom game environments. 

This ingenious and innovative process saves time and money and supports developers with new game content to players much faster.
The EnGeniux Project wanted to take a different approach with this crowdfund effort, so it is using the Selfstarter Method used by other platforms that didn’t use Kickstarter to fund their projects. 

During the campaign Engeniux will be offering these three Cool Incentives To Back:
- All Credit cards will not be charged until one month before units ship.
- $100 of game credit if the OTON developer (dev unit) doesn’t ship on the date EnGeniux promises.
-A free OTON T-shirt if the OTON dev unit can’t produce 100 different basic 2D game levels and characters when shipped.
The OTON X Systems will cost $99 for early-bird units (limit of 50 units) and $139 for standard units. 

Derrick Samuels who is the OTON X creator and project manager said the following:


“We’re excited and confident that we can get OTON X funded with this hybrid method,”

“I stand behind my console and my team, and we want our community to feel excited and confident that we can deliver!”

We Say Why Not Get Involved And Visit The OTON X BETA Pages  to beta test the OTON X UI!
