Tomorrow on Save & Sound (+ a link to a concert teaser)!
Hi! An announcement to remind you that tomorrow, I'll show some exclusive content to the Save & Sound event here on Steam at 12PM PDT. I recorded a video game concert little session for the occasion!
Because what happened since the last demo I released two years ago and a failed Kickstarter?
Well, in 2020/2021 I decided to shelve the dev of the game for a while, focusing on other kind of job, developing some audio plugins extensions in LUA, blablabla...
And in 2022, Epic announced that I had a Megagrant to help me work on the game!
The concert
The thing is that I really wanted to create an whole experience with this game, so I decided to develop a different version of it, which I would control with electronic music hardware for a live video game concert! I worked on it for a bit more than 6 months, and I played it in May 2023, at the Stunfest festival in France. It was so cool! What I want, is to propose a game-album and the concert belonging to it. Here's the teaser of the concert:
What about the game?
If you reading this, that's because you just discovered the game or you're interested since I released the demo. The demo is outdated, there are mentions of the Kickstarter, which failed. I worked on the game content but not so much, as I developed the concert. I worked mainly on the main system, to optimize it and facilitate development. I just started to change the whole audio system, as I'll work with Unreal Engine 5 and Metasound, and this will be so fun! I still have a lot to do to change the audio system and I also have to work on a lot of content.
I'm not sure of any release date for the moment, I have a family to take care of, and I have some other projects during this year. Teaching, making experimental video games with dance companies, I'm also the president of the House of Video Games here in Rennes (France) which is a super cool place for people to work, talk about and share gaming/dev experiences.
I believe I'll have a final version during 2024.
I'll keep you in touch, and meanwhile I'll try to tour with this fun concert.
Thank you for following, and don't hesitate to share the project!
