If you are interested in working on a low poly open world RPG please keep reading.
Our team has been working hard to make a cutting edge open world RPG for over a year. In this year we have learned that it’s almost impossible for a duo team to achieve the cutting edge standard we have been hoping for, mainly because of the games size. With that said, we are very passionate about our work and won’t give up on our goal - making Overworld a game that captivates players with monumental immersion and boundless play styles.
Our team currently consists of two members. We both have skills that compensate for each others weaknesses and have known each other for over five years.
@SingleSided - Scripter, general builder
@FireExodus - UI designer, 3d modeler, general builder
Together this team has worked on titles such as:
Knightfall - the beginning era
Our game has two versions. Originally, we had begun development with a different high poly style. This game was called “Knightfall” but was soon remade into a low poly style. Here is a preview of some of the features. Please feel free to skip through it.
This video was made a long time ago, and since then we have added added crafting, a shop, finished the dungeon, added monster animations, created a tutorial, implemented many different quests, added over one hundred in-game items, and so much more.
This version was a nearly completed playable game. We opened Knightfall to testing on 7/28/2019 to approximately fifteen Forge Studios game testers. We got a lot of positive feedback and criticism, which we are hoping to reflect in Overworld.
Why did you remake the game?
In short, we knew we could do so much better.
Here are some screenshots of our old game. The game is too large to include everything, but here are some scenic pictures that weren’t included in the video:
Overworld - the current era
This era includes the low poly style and is what we plan to release to the public once completed. After taking our game testers feedback into consideration, we spent a long time perfecting each individual aspect of the game.
The code was rewritten to be more efficient and the world was expanded to the size of 164 baseplates or to a size with an approximate area of 83,968 studs.
Please note that none of the screenshots posted below shows a completed portion of the game.
