I'm looking forward to this. |
David Lancaster Member Posts: 276 From: Adelaide, Australia Registered: 05-22-2006 |
The main character 'Axys' goes on Adventures, though the initial name of the game was called Access Phenomenon, referring to the phenomenon experienced when we give God access to our hearts... |

I PM'd you a little bit ago, don't know if you've read it yet, and if you have I might have missed the reply as all my new emails go into my junk mail folder... ------------------ |

The pics look great! It looks like a mix between Zelda and Mario Sunshine, lol. ------------------ |
dartsman Member Posts: 484 From: Queensland, Australia Registered: 03-16-2006 |
lol yeah, I like the whole Zelda reference to the "cut the grass with sword to get a crystal"... lol... again awesome work... ------------------ |
David Lancaster Member Posts: 276 From: Adelaide, Australia Registered: 05-22-2006 |
Cactus Games have taken on Axys and are our publisher, our most hopeful, perhaps a little unrealistic release date is July this year, the latest very latest date it will be released is early September. Cactus ships to the USA, UK, Australia and New Zealand Christian book stores. We'll self publish into the secular market... Oh and yeah :P I was playing Mario Sunshine, Delfino Plaza as I was doing some of the level design [This message has been edited by David Lancaster (edited May 27, 2006).] |

So, did you make this video game? And I went to the web site and I may have missed it, but, when is this game actually coming out where we can buy it? ~Michelle |
Mack Administrator Posts: 2779 From: Registered: 01-20-2001 |
When can I order it? |

question: Considering this is a console-ish platform type game have you implemented support for the Xbox360 controller for windows via XInput? I've personally been using this app: http://www.pinnaclegameprofiler.com/ But native support is usually better: |
David Lancaster Member Posts: 276 From: Adelaide, Australia Registered: 05-22-2006 |
Biggest restrictions to console with 3D Game Studio atm are:
quote: If the game sells well enough, them I'm sure it can get onto console. The game is a high quality indie game, low quality commercial game. It's all a matter of waiting and seeing how it goes. |
Mack Administrator Posts: 2779 From: Registered: 01-20-2001 |
I don't want a free copy, I want to support developers. I believe what Gump means is support for the Xbox 360 controller for Windows not porting the game to Xbox 360 (although that would be awesome). I know Microsoft is pushing support for it in Windows games and I think it's a prerequist to getting the "Games for Windows" authorization/logo. |
David Lancaster Member Posts: 276 From: Adelaide, Australia Registered: 05-22-2006 |
Okay this is kinda a big announcment, you can now purchase the game through Rebel Planet's website: http://www.rebelplanetcreations.com/ I'm kinda holding off going round everywhere and telling everyone they can buy it until we've got a demo to show. |
dartsman Member Posts: 484 From: Queensland, Australia Registered: 03-16-2006 |
Yay!!! :P People buy it, its cool... plus I'm in the credits :P hehe ------------------ |
David Lancaster Member Posts: 276 From: Adelaide, Australia Registered: 05-22-2006 |
Yeah you have to buy it it's the coolest most awesome game ever!!! (from a biased overexaggerated point of view) :P [This message has been edited by David Lancaster (edited September 22, 2006).] |

This is how much I love Axys, fudge 72 hours:

JeTSpice Member Posts: 433 From: La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA Registered: 06-10-2006 |
David, I'm getting it! I've been waiting for this. Awesome. The site doesn't say: is there a mac version? I'll get it anyway and use it on PC, but is there a mac? -J |
dartsman Member Posts: 484 From: Queensland, Australia Registered: 03-16-2006 |
David forced... err... I mean asked if I could say just how awesome it is... On a scale of 1 to 10, this is like a 5... I could have gone with the whole corny "Oh it's like a 100!!! yeah totally rock on!!! woooo" but decided for the honest truth. From the Beta, it has rather decent graphics. I was surprised at the detail. Then when you start moving through the game you find new challenges. There are some of the same puzzles, but they get bigger and more challenging, and there are new ones which come along :| (when you least expect it...). The best thing is it has a good and strong christian message. It is challenging, definately challenging, though I'm pretty sure David's fixed that (he made it even more challening jk), so that should be good I would have found it more fun if I was a bit younger (I'm 20 btw). I do like developing 3rd person platformers, and there is definately a lot of work put into this from David and the RPC team. I recon this is definately a great Christian game, with good gameplay, graphics and music. 72 hours!!! hehe... Footsteps :| that rocks... Quote from RPC site "Over 20 hours game-play"... I can vouch for that! lol ------------------ |
David Lancaster Member Posts: 276 From: Adelaide, Australia Registered: 05-22-2006 |
No the game wont work on Mac Jeff. What are your pc specs? |
GUMP Member Posts: 1335 From: Melbourne, FL USA Registered: 11-09-2002 |
ACE is considering setting up a digital distribution system kind of like Steam; would you be interested in that? Also, have you tried contacting Valve about releasing your title via Steam? They appear to be opening up Steam to other developers a lot more recently. |
Jari Member Posts: 1471 From: Helsinki, Finland Registered: 03-11-2005 |
Looks like a fun game, sword swinging but not brutal violence. I watched the video but is there no demo though? ------------------ [VoHW] (Help needed) [Blog] - Truedisciple (mp3) |
ArchAngel Member Posts: 3450 From: SV, CA, USA Registered: 01-29-2002 |
steam is terrible. why should you have to log on the web for a single player game? I have dsl, so it's not a problem, but I have friends who specifically stay away from it because of their dial-up. the one flaw of half-life 2, imo. although, to be honest, getting it on steam, would be good for getting it out... ------------------ |
Lazarus Member Posts: 1668 From: USA Registered: 06-06-2006 |
Like me, Arch? (Dialup 115.2 Kbps) Never go near steam. Oh wait, I'm not one of your friends. ... Lazarus |
GUMP Member Posts: 1335 From: Melbourne, FL USA Registered: 11-09-2002 |
Actually, you can play SP games on Steam without being online. The major benefits to releasing via Steam is (1) "free" marketing in the form of several million gamers noticing the game's release and (2) higher profit per unit sale. |
David Lancaster Member Posts: 276 From: Adelaide, Australia Registered: 05-22-2006 |
The demo is uploading right now, when I wake up I'll post it I know I know it's hard to wait, in the mean time you can view the greatest video ever made: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=1273037517 |

I'm on the third level. Is there anyway to permanently rid of the weeds? |
GUMP Member Posts: 1335 From: Melbourne, FL USA Registered: 11-09-2002 |
If you have a XBox 360 Controller try using this joystick profile I made for Axys: http://www.gameace.org/~common/Demos/Axys.pin http://www.gameace.org/~common/Demos/pinnacle-setup.exe Works great. Also allows my carpal tunnel aching hands to play Axys without using a M&K! |

JeTSpice Member Posts: 433 From: La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA Registered: 06-10-2006 |
I tried the power cord thing, but the laptop battery started in. I'm into the blue diamonds. I haven't found any secret areas yet. |

What do you mean 3rd level, and what do you mean you're into blue diamonds they are everywhere right??? You playing the demo or the full game Jeff? |
Jari Member Posts: 1471 From: Helsinki, Finland Registered: 03-11-2005 |
Thanks for releasing the demo, it's very well done game! Professional quality I'd say. ------------------ [VoHW] (Help needed) [Blog] - Truedisciple (mp3) |

Full game, yo. I'm now in the middle of the map, where you can go to a bunch of different places, and each one has 3 diamonds, and...well I don't want to type any spoilers or anything. |
dartsman Member Posts: 484 From: Queensland, Australia Registered: 03-16-2006 |
Yeah, you goto finish the game (kill the main boss dude) to get rid of the weeds... ------------------ |
