Eschalon

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Eschalon

Just saw the screenshot of Eschalon and I must say it looks really good. I am wondering (and yes I emailed the poster about this) does anyone know what he coded it in? And did he use some libs out ther for the rest of us? Anyone know?

It does look pretty good isn't it? It's actually the first blitz game that has made me want to buy it. I'd also like to know what he used to make it.

Link ?

I hate people who can produce graphics of that quality.

Me too John, me too.

Wow that looks great, TOTALLT up my street. Lovely graphics too.

I just got an email back from the screenshot oster / developer. He /They are using BMax...

OpenGL?

Don't know... how hard is isometric in BMax?

It looks kind of sweet like the old 8 bit games, only with better graphics.

I don't think I'd give it such a high rating, but it does look quite polished.

I especially hate people who can make sexy graphics but dont post a link to their site.

Thats really nice!

Those are amazing graphics! Is it 3D or iso?

[EDIT]Definately iso

I think it'd look better in 3D. Although the character is high quality, the bones and the barrel and some of the other ambient objects look a little pixely.

That's why we have the member info pages. So you don't have to keep posting a link to your homepage. And here's Tachyon's. Complete with link to his Homepage. :p

lol thanks :)

Cool logo on the website as well!

The screenshot reminds me of the Exile and Genforge games from Spiderweb Software (www.spiderwebsoftware.com) - the best independent RPG developer around, but Eschalon seems to have superior presentation. But will it have the gameplay of the spiderweb games too? That's the question.
