Volo - After Think Design Play

[fuzzwuzzify]

thumbs up if he should release a beta or something of this game

[TheReplay1995]

Release this game!??!! -_- Can't waaaaaaaitttt!

[theC4K3is4lie]

OH MY GOD FINALLY AN AMAZING WINGSUIT SKYDIVING GAME (that's not/not like "AAAHHHH!!! Reckless disregard for gravity")

I'M THROWING MY MONEY AT THE SCREEN

[shotgunsam666]

That look's really relaxing.

[chadwick359]

Wow, this is stunning. Any chance we can get a progress update video? Or a demo? Or an ETA? Anything really, I just want to see more of this.

[WhatsitlikeinNYCity]

Love the sound and gameplay! the music sort of hurts my soul at times, whats with the hissing?

[SgtSeev]

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY CASH!

:I this game looks fun.

[sashu5452]

Any idea of when this will be done? I can't wait to give you all my money.

[rocko430]

will there be clouds to flythrough and hopelessly crash?

[tunnelscope]

I love how there is no animations, just all real time, please, never put animations! Keep it all real :D

[Stiedos]

Can you just let us try it plz :( i want to so bad

[Shadow383]

Are you still alive?

I've been waiting for this for years :P

[BenMoreland94]

This game looks so awesome

You have done great work on this =)

[katamara250]

how to download it?

[Drigoroth]

No first person view....?

[pinkmullet4]

@Drigoroth there is a first person view, just not in this video.

[Lanterfantable]

Looks fantastic. You got yourself another sub, need to keep an eye on this.

[Lefinch]

It's a pleasure to see a game trying something so simple: turning a mechanic (falling) into a game. Into something that really shouldn't be interesting, but I literally couldn't tear my eyes away for a second.

[reilly3721]

can you crash it

[TheThingyThings]

this is bloody amazing. How long did it take you to do?

[NoSenseDude]

I WANT A FKING DEMO !!!!

[ico14141]

Hey,Bro realese a simple demo to play and view the skydive man .Just put some shit on player and go ahead broo ;0

[toknowandgrow]

release another update soon?

[OLOL112]

MULTIPLAYER PLEASE

[Serialtinus]

@OLOL112 I wouldn't dream of not doing multiplayer.

[checkersforcr]

looks like its progressing well :) this game definitely has alot of potential

and the sense of speed is great!

[toknowandgrow]

dear serialtinus

Its x-mas eve, can you PROMISE ME...a demo in 2012?

[Serialtinus]

@toknowandgrow Yes. :)

[MrElliottMckenzie]

Looks awesome, could use with a smaller player model though.

[kuangsheng]

I signed in to say that I think your project looks fantastic and I would support any effort you put into further work. I have seen some amazing wingsuit videos on the net, and while not being a particular purveyor of skydiving/basejumping/wingsuit exploits I never considered how cool it would be to play something like this.

This video makes your project look boss. Keep up the good work. Labours of love are always the best ones.

[2xBanes]

I would buy it immediatly even for 20 bucks

[Serialtinus]

@2xBanes I'll keep you to that, eventually. Thanks! :)

[Abibas977]

beast game 4ever, I love it. Plss pc game mot xbox or ps3 plss. :D :D

[Serialtinus]

@Abibas977 PC&Mac initially, with encouraged use of either a 360 or ps3 pad. I use a 360 pad for development, anyway. :)

[NoSenseDude]

@Serialtinus gonna be free? or we have to pay?...i would definetly buy it

[theC4K3is4lie]

@Serialtinus would you ever consider releasing alpha builds for this game? Indie game devs like Wolfire with games like Overgrowth seem to be accumulating a massive following in fans and pre-orders by releasing weekly alphas.

[locolow2011]

This better be in GTA V

[Serialtinus]

@locolow2011 It had better not. :(

[cowboysfor6]

im pretty sure theyre adding features like this to the new gta...any opinions?

[Galaxyass1]

@cowboysfor6 Why the fuck would they do that?

[Serialtinus]

@cowboysfor6 I'm thinking they might, though they likely won't go very deep simulation-wise since it will be a relatively small part of a very big game. Much like the basejumping and parachuting in San Andreas and GTA4.

[InAWorldOfLies]

You have serious talent! You do have a legit career in gaming don't you? You really should :)

[smokeb3atz]

you should make it extremly graphic like when u hit somthing limbs fly off oo a when u hit the ground a squish bone breakin sound and blood

[Fata1happiness]

Please release this. I would play it for hours on end.

[pinkmullet4]

I know you want this to be a more realist game but you should leave a sort of "superman" mode into the game just to mess around with.

[Octamed]

@pinkmullet4 I actually don't agree. The player usually wants to be invincible or have unlimited weapons, but they don't realise that it immediately takes away the reason it's so good in the first place and they get bored far quicker. In this case pushing the limits and not really knowing how far to push. If you could practice being invincible then the proper game mode wouldn't seem anywhere near as intense.

[pzyt100]

ooo nice!!!

[TheMad311]

awesome, no parachute yet ? I think the glide ratio should be less forgiving...

[tunnelscope]

hahaha! When you hit the wall, I was like: "OH GOD OH GOD"

[TheReplay1995]

OMG When will this game be out?! It looks SO Awesome!! ;)

[TheHelpfulTuts]

"The Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The Devil", a song like this could fit the game :3

[TheHelpfulTuts]

Will there be a download? If so, when, and will it be free?

P.S. Awesome progress, I love your game

[Octamed]

@TheHelpfulTuts This game needs to be a pay thing. If it's free all that does is show how much we value the effort. $10 on Steam sounds about right to me

[SplinterCell521]

Seriously, use the Minecraft business model. Sell the alpha version of the game and just update it whenever you make major progress. you get our money and community feedback. we all win.

[aegisfate117]

Oh, and FIRST PERSON VIEW PLEASE

[aegisfate117]

This is literally what I've been waiting for.

[gloverelaxis]

I need to give you my money

[TheTurbinator]

Can you please launch a pre-order process, because there is a ton of us that want to play this game, and we would love to get our hands on a beta.

[Ibly31]

i love how the glide ratio spasms when he starts going up

[Serialtinus]

@Ibly31 Hah! Yes, when you approach horizontal flight your glide ratio starts approaching infinity, and goes into the negative when you briefly go up. :)

[Mihawkler]

I had a 5-day trip to rome, come back and see this... life can't get any better o_o

[fantastichumore]

This is soo Damn Cool man! can't wait to play it :D

[SBT222]

This game is so beautifull. Can't wait to see it!

[Reuben961]

I dont think you understand how much i want this game. if u lived nearby, i would find you and pay u to try it! >:O

[Mihawkler]

@Reuben961 if i knew where he lives, I would be buying a plane ticket right now >:O

[odseraphim]

I would love to see this game in first person (Vuzix glasses or another pair of video glasses) using kinect to control (and of course a fan to simulate wind on your face). THAT would be awesome. You should consider such an easy setup for demonstration purposes. You could even bring a wooden box to lay face-down on to simulate the angle.

[UnconventionalDice]

@odseraphim to make it even more awesome, a usb speed controlled fan (not that difficult to do) would increase or decrease the speed with data from the flyer speed. THAT would be awesome. XD

[5uphiKaner]

@odseraphim is that not called planking :P

[bolle8520]

the sense of speed is amazing

[Octamed]

Awesome, the history camera works brilliantly (remember we talked when I asked you about action mapper stuff in Unity)

[GTAHACKERS]

it would be funny if you integrate the mount chiliad from san andreas :D

[GTAHACKERS]

absolutly awesome man! give us a alpha or a beta!

[DKdoman]

This game will be so awesome i won't even get off the computer for few days!

[GreenBrake]

OMG !!! I need to play this baaaaad :D



[Murcuseo]

Changing the FOV was a great idea. It's also interesting to see your physics work at higher vertical speeds, very convincing indeed. :)

Sounds like the game was well received at Think Design Play, congratz .

[5uphiKaner]

looks like the main thing that needs to be done is the physics then its plain sailing from there good luck

[UnconventionalDice]

When you have a demo to test, I'll make a themed die for it, and talk a bit of it on my blog/G+ entry. Not that I have many fans, and not sure any of them would like it, but I just love your work so far.

[simon021]

This is so incredible. I have been following the project for a long time now, and it's really amazing to see how far you have come. Amazing work, my friend. This is going to be a great game. Cant wait to be able to contribute if there is ever an alpha or beta release. Keep up the great work!

[brotherlybrother11]

The clouds and terrain look amazing!!!!!!!!!! physics are a little off but im sure you can do it!

[Durush1]

wowo the games really come along cant wait for the release this game is incredible

[Zargogo]

More suggestions are to add some sort of water - make it an island or something that makes sense. You don't have to create water physics that's too complicated just make a small animation and spread it around the island. I suggest adding, if even possible, a little motion blur to hide the textures of the ground because they are not very well hidden right now. It would be cool if you make some more wild mountain terrain as well.

[DQIsrad]

any way to get a trial version or demo of game. looks sick. I could play it like this and be happy. I've played almost every skydiving game thats come out and this is the best. I grew up on a dropzone and am now a skydiver myself. sick. keep up the good work.

[Reuben961]

@DQIsrad can u list some games for me plz? started skydiving this summer :)

[Zargogo]

Awesome! I suggest a few birds maybe - some life in the game besides the main character, louder music, the music not to stop when you hit the ground but to rather make it a tad louder and turn down the actual game volume. I can't really heart the music but it's important to note that the soundtrack is a VERY important aspect with regards to these types of games. Think of something inspiring with very little vocals but more instrumental.

[UnconventionalDice]

@Zargogo I agree that music is important, however, in this particular case, given that his model is actually simulating the sounds on all surfaces, I find the windspeed sound to be more than enough to acompany the flight.

Maybe test that the game doesn't implode if running along winamp for the ones that need that extra oomph? (I'm not saying that playing with music is bad whatsoever).
