After months of development, finally we had finished the core stuffs of the game. Now we are posting some screenies for preview over here. Feel free to comment.

Just for those who had forgotten what is the game about, Sun Crusher is actually a multiplayer game done in DBpro blending both real-time strategy and third person shooter gameplay. In this game, you either take role as a fleet commander, or battle armor. As a fleet commander, you spend most of your time planning tactical strategy of your fleets, which each of them is actual human player. You are able to jump into the cockpit of the capital ships on your side as well and have some action. If you play it as a battle armor, you will be joining other players on your side to fight against the enemy fleet. You will enjoy the total action gameplay, and you are expected to follow the fleet commander's order to achieve victory for your team. The victory is achieved by destroying the opponent's mothership.

We will be posting a semi-playable demo by the end of this month for Beta testing and to gather more feedbacks. Stay tune!

We would also like to hear comments in the following area from you guys. Although you can't say much without playing the actual demo, but you can give us your best shot based on your past experience.

- What do you think about the graphics quality from the in-game screen shot?

- How do you evaluate the degree of creativity in this game?

- Have you played any blended RTS/Action game? What do you think about this genre?

- and anything that you feel that it might be useful for us to make this game even more fun. Thanks!

Hi,

congratiolations to bringing the project so further! Now some comments:

1. It's hard to tell from the screenshots how the graphics are but the look ok. Don't worry that they are not spectaclular - good game needs good gameplay :)

2. The degree of creativy of the game is also ok but this is also hard to judge only from the screenshots and game description ;)

3. Yes, there was a great FPS/Action i remember! BattleZone II. Probably one of the best games ever made! And i'm now awaiting 'Pacific War' (or whatever it was called) that combines FPS with simulator components.

4. For me, personally, it will be a lot more fun to play the action part from 1st person, have a cockpit and etc like a real simulator. 3rd person sounds as if you guys were too lazy to do more :)

Keep up the good work!

3rd person is usuall more work, and I like it much much better, dont take that away.

I absolutely love this genre, I would love to see more games like it. I loved Savage Battle for Newearth.

The game is no Doom3 killer for graphics, but it is definately suitable. What matters now is gameplay and balancing. It is extremely difficult to balance an rts, especially when the intelligence of the units is beyond your control.

I will definately check out your game. One thing to add would be good bots, this is helpful when there arent enough people to really flesh out a game, or if you want to just play 1v1 commanders. Also, if you could make some kind of halfway decent ai commander, that would give upgrades, this would make it fun to play players vs bots.

I thought the game's graphics were very nice, especially so for this point on. The whole interface looks quite polished and professional.

So, any chance of a Linux demo? :)

[JSoftware]

i must say that i'm very impressed by the screenshots! the only thing i can just say by the look of the screenshots is that the ss "Fleet commander is giving orders" is the skybox. there's this little seam in the background :blush:

but thumbs up!
