I have 2 say just in that 1 bit ther is a hell of alot of work, i have used photo shop since 2002 or sumfing like that, and that is sum major work for such a small poice of game.

[TreeDonkey992]

cant wait to play this, i'd pay for it.

[burialgem]

looks like you have done alot of work.

[darklight436]

i could only dream to be able to know what you know!

i'm going to take computer science for college

but i'm a bit hesitent becuse it seems to be math dominant, and i'm horrible in math

[callistek]

:D if it's what you love, go for it, It's logic dominate, which is a sub category of math. But yeah there can be alot of math depending on what area you go into.

[DsiWiiReview]

@callistek yeah people told me before i started doing computer stuff that there was gonna be alot of math, but there really isnt as much as i thought (wich is good)

[Crystalbloxcorp]

yea.... you have a hard work... Maybe you will make this game with your friends? Free and good for you!

[callistek]

I'm working on a secret project with friends :D similar in scale though. Right now on Feudal empires, I'm going to focus on making it single player for now.

Seems like a lot of work to create all those tile variants by hand that way one at a time. Why not layer some basic building blocks programmatically, using alpha?

Even if doing the combinations at runtime is too prohibitive, generating them using a script by combining layers seems like it would be way faster than all that work you did by hand in the video.

The tiles look great, though!

[callistek]

Sometimes that is acceptable, but normally it will make the tiles look 'cheap' In these sheets it's water / nothing, the grass was just to test. But in the final version it's just water, so it can be placed on snow, desert, etc.

[callistek]

:D Thanks, I'm working on a cool video now, I will show a game making process from start to finish :D It will take a while to make though, programming part takes longer than the art part.

[smanks12]

What progam did you use to make that?

[callistek]

The art was in Photoshop CS3, the SQL was in MS SQL Server 2005, the game client engine is in Flex 3.0 (ActionScript3), the XML I think I did it in Dreamweaver CS3, The game server is in C#, (MS visual studio)

You're just doing it because "Err I didn't understand" >.> Can you clear it in text please?

[callistek]

Sorry for my English, I live in Brazil and speak more Portuguese than English. "I'm just doing this (the sprite sheet art) because... errmmm.. I can... I have too, nobody else is here to do it."

Since I'm the only person working on the game I have to do everything. :/ which is not ideal. (I hope for pretty art some day)

Hope that clears it up :D

[pablow2310]

eu amo ticos

[killa32141]

is there a release date yet?

[callistek]

None yet, due to financial issues I can only work on the game when I have money and nothing to do. I plan on putting a page up on the site soon showing financial support options.
