Good morning everyone, it is supposed to be a lovely day today, which probably means it is going to rain one minute and be like a sauna the next. The latter is quite undesirable considering my major wine experience last night. It is not agreeing with my stomach this morning. But what settles my tummy more than Pepto, or crackers is none other than watching a couple YouTube episodes of the Adventure in Game Development Series, or later called Elysian Shadows Revolution.
These videos depict the silly team antics and growth as they create the multi-platform RPG Elysian Shadows. Elysian Shadows is a game that has been through more transformations than a boy going through puberty, but every change was for the better in my opinion. They ditched their old artists, and gained new more skilled ones! They rebuilt the engine a few times to implement and improve it's capabilities, and they re-wrote from a shaky C foundation to a more solid and reusable C++.
But this is all ancient history, as the team has been on hiatus from posting videos. All their loyal fans shed a single tear of regret for the possibly dead project.
But fret not little nerd men, Elysian Shadows is not dead! According to the figure head and possible team lead Falco Girgis, the team has been working on the game almost non stop for the past 2 years. And that being so, he also stated to me that they are very close to releasing the next video chapter of Elysian Shadows Game Development. I am almost literally giddy with excitement, considering the fact that this series is one of the reasons I went to school to get a computer science degree.
We have been promised a mind blowing visual experience, unrivaled by any other video they have created thus far. This video is supposed to show off the new team members that have been gained, and all the work they have done together. We can all hope, that the video gives a possible release date so we can all spend money on them. But aside from that, we could all use a little motivation to start making our own games to give Life of Ramen something to talk about!
Ok, enough rambling! I am going to post one of their newer old videos so you can get an idea of their process, and you can assess your will to watch the new video when it comes out.
That is all I have to give everyone, remember that all these images and videos belong to the Elysian Shadows Dev team. Make sure you comment if you want to show your love for Elysian Shadows, or Life of Ramen. And now for linky links...
