Name

Alternate

Developer

Purple-face-games

Genre

scifi/ horror FPS

Release date

Q2 2012

Plot:

The year is 1944. A POW lies down on his prison bed somewhere in Germany, contemplating his thoughts. He falls asleep that night like any night. When he wakes up in the morning the distinct smell of blood is abundant in the cell. He notices a severed hand holding a pair of keys that open up his cell. When he unlocks the doors he is met with a gruesome sight, a carcass on the floor bled out holding a gun. He grabs the colt 45 and heads out to investigate. He is met by hordes of zombies after his blood, he has to fight his way through the zombie mob to escape the death camp, but the virus has spread to the outside, and so has something else.
The earth seems unsettled, something has opened the depths of time to bring the present and the future together, along with all the baddies and monsters that go with it. What was a hopeless situation for the POW has now turned into a confusing one. Can he stop the virus from spreading, can he save the day? The world’s hopes rest on the shoulders of war prisoner Marcus Beck. This is his story.

(im going to try and make the game feel like a book, but no narator, i know thats the craze in games since bastion was released. the story is gonna be told from a first person perspective so all plot will unfold infront of the character and not in cutscenes from a 3rd person stance.)

A demo will be released some time in febuary when we are close to going gold.

screens:

Images are very very early screens, enviormental detail has not been implemented fully, we expect to have final images in place at a later date, but will constantly update this thread with update enviormental screenshots. Please note that this scene taks place in a bunker so the lighting and mood is dark, so dont expect huge amount of entity placements in the death camp screens

crits and such are welcome.

thanks for your help and support

Deathkon 3000 is no longer in production..... and no their was no "curse" its just the fact i couldnt be botherd!

First screenshot is great! Is that smoke real? As in, does it move or is it just a picture?

The rest of the screenshots are boring in my opinion. Don't just show yourself shooting this zombie thing. Actually show your game so people will be interested in it!

@Exu Corporations

The smoke is a decal from the Sprite animation pack

http://www.thegamecreators.com/?m=view_product&id=2154

It does move and does look very good.

@Nazareth

Game looks good. As Exu mentioned, the second screens are a bit, meh Make sure to really show off the interesting things in your game. The first screen is nice, however, the light emitting from the ashtray, what is the light source? Is it a cigarette, that is giving off that much light?

And, in the other screens, that mesh thing on the right, am i correct in assuming that is a group of girders? I personally don't think that any structure would have that many girders in such close proximity.

I am only speaking from my opinion though, trying to help! Not, being horrible in any way, please don't take this in any other way than helpful opinions.

It looks good, the last pic especially, except the table is a bit unnatural, how on earth can it stay balanced like that? And seeing those weapons in-game makes me want to buy the pack even more!

yeah ive taken what everyone has said and tried my best to spend more time on making it look good and play good. im spending weeks on a level instead of hours. it is possible to put a table on its side like that, former backyar wrestler talking! as for the guns, they are by far the greatest guns in fpsc hands down, so masterfully crafted. they basically made me come up with the idea and setting for this game, plus those zombies.

thanks alot aswell.

as for the game being commercial or non commercial, depends on wether we can shift the game to any portals, in the ocuronce that it gets rejected like subject 80, then we will release it for free. i have high hopes for this project becuase of the general feedback ive gotten from other sources who have played the game.

it will most likely be commercial. that being said we beleive that games are over priced, so ALTERNATE will likley sell for $5 to $10. regardless of how long it takes to complete the game.

First, I am amazed with your smoke effect, how the hell did you do that? Second, your level design skills are great, I am hoping the game play is great too, lastly I really like the way you light your levels.

we have some screen shot updates. a few things to consider are they are not final quality screens, and 2, for some reason fraps is lagging my fpsc framerate, so that is why the lowest frames in pic are around 35 frames,

screen shots:

Take the screens in a built game instead of test game. That has the added beneficial effect, that you know if your game will actually run before you spend money on printing packages

Doesn't look bad, I would recommend using the illumination.fx (or however you spell it) shader on your light sources so it gives them a glow, it makes a real difference

Ok theres way to much rubble underneath it compared to the size of the whole and what is producing that blue light? It's sure not the light on the cieling cause that one obviously would make a white or yellowish light from it. I would change the lighting and remove some rubble over all it looks great

I agree with Abdul and NIlooc above me, but the screens seem to look great otherwise. Especially liking the one with all the pipes on the floor. There's the blue glow also, but it looks more natural there in my opinion, looks like the water reflecting on the pipes and whatnot.

BUT! I just noticed that the bricks on your last screen are perfectly angled, like you just used R to rotate them. Try "SHIFT + R" and "CTRL + R" to rotate them more specifically.
