March 18th Update (Insider+)

Hey guys just want to give you a info on what has transpired over the course the last

couple weeks.  As you know we spent the initial week of March dedicated to SU.  Now we both feel that it worked out nicely and are planning on keeping that schedule for the upcoming months.  Outside of games we have been working on other projects that will eventually be used as a whole ecosystem for our games.  The central hub will be our website.  This will be up and running by month...

Just a heads up

Sunset isn't feeling well today and won't have the Rogue Lust page finished.  It will be released tomorrow now.

Third Build v.0.0.3

This build will finally get to be interesting for you guys. Sunset will be working on the portraits, and backgrounds for the lower city. All the sketches and materials will be available to the insiders+ levels. We are aiming to have a significant portion of these finished so our script can start to come to life.

We are optimistic that we can get some content in this month, what it will be is hard to say at this point in time. We are going to be focusing on the Thief, and characters directl...

Web Show!!!!

Another installment of our critically acclaimed web show will be this Thursday at 8pm CST.  Submit you questions below and they will be answered.

Insider+ Update

So since we have the release of v.0.0.2 is behind us I want to give you some context on where we stand with the goals for March. Firstly we have the majority of all the system and prototypes in the game now, meaning when we start plugging in story and assets we should be able to move at a consistent pace. The improvement in our design over our previous project is that all calculations will be held in the main city, where the other project had calculations spread across multiple scenes. This cr...

March What to Expect

Like always we want to thank everyone for the amazing support last month. To summarize February in one word we would use “Healing”.  Just like any wound it takes time to heal, in January we were bleeding profusely like think Ninja Scroll type bleeding.  People were leaving, at an alarming rate, but new people were coming in! February marked a neutral month for us we literally ended up with +3 Patrons! Now we also saw a movement of people into the $5.00 tier which we had expected mo...

Path of Kings v 0.0.2

We are finally done v. 0.0.2.  Time seems to fly by during the last week of the month for us here.  Most of this month was devoted to getting all our background systems in place, which means majority of work was on the back end.  This isn't ideal but sets us up to have amazing months moving forward.  We hit our main target/goals for this month earlier in the week, which was promising.  This shows us that our planning and development estimates are on target.  The one...

Webshow ep.3 Thursday (@ 8:00 pm CST)

Another week and another webshow coming up.  It has been a busy week over here while we prepare for the release of Path of Kings v.0.02.  Now this weeks webshow we will let everyone of our Patrons know exactly what is happening with Something Unlimited.  I think most of you will be quite happy with what we plan on doing and we look forward to sharing the news on Thursday (will be at the very beginning of the show).   Also this week I will be putting together a strawpoll ...

Sketch of Some Female NPC ideas

Sunset is doing some of the rougher design work just randomly on scraps here and there. These are some more final-ish clean sketches. Most of these characters might change when Sunset starts making actual portraits.

We don't want all the characters to look like hookers, there will be a lot of more mundane/realistic female characters. We will be starting with mainly the thief characters, as the thief will be the prototype for the other characters since we have a very good idea on the progre...

Insider+ Update

Hey guys sorry for the lack of content over the past few days.  We have been busy working on most of the systems that will be in this months build.  Most of the calculations and variables are plugged in at this point.  We are also hoping to have some content being placed into the game next week.  Looking at the progress we are either right on track or slightly ahead of schedule it is hard to tell at this point.  In the coming days we will have a sketch sheet for you guys...

So far we have:

• Sunset Showdown
• Sunset and Smoke
  

Main Menu Cut Scene (Insider+)

This has a pretty cool progression with it. Sunset did this one over a few days since it's so massive.It is also split into about six parts, it's like painting five or six huge backgrounds by themselves. Sunset may go back and add some more details and polish once we get nearer to completion.

Next to the main city this is probably going to be largest picture in the game. The city is about twice the size of this one, and Sunset is estimating the main city to end up being roughly 100 hours t...

v 0.0.2 Build Design Elements (Insider+ Exclusive)

Here is another little diagram for 0.0.2 in February. We would like to have most of the intractable part of the city done, mostly the two lower tiers that you saw in 0.0.1. In addition to both versions of the city with the day and night cycle. This is the biggest job for a single scene in the game. This picture (city) is huge, and will be the biggest picture Sunset  has ever created to date. Most of the buildings will be set up, but we will disable them for now since there will be little to...

Good bye January, Hello February!

I want to preface this with a giant thank you to all of you for the tremendous support over January. You now know that January had to be the most adversity we have been forced to face since starting up this venture 8 months ago. When we started this we wanted to do things differently. We wanted bring an experience, not just with the content, but with how our Patreon is run. We wanted to show this in good times and bad. Support retracted in January but it wasn’t as bad as Sunset and myself...

Path of Kings : Build 0.0.1

Finally the first release of Path of Kings. It's been a long month for us but it went by really fast. It has also been a strange month and really turned everything upside down on us. We are starting to settle in on this new direction, and have so much to bring you guys.

This build has almost everything we wanted to get into it. We didn't get the main city painting finished because it is just massive, it has to been done twice since there is a night and day version. We think it's at a ...

Slaver Sketch (Insider exclusive)

These are just some quick sketches from the slaver cut scene. . We are breaking the cut scenes into three parts. The first two will be unique to each class with the last being the same across all classes (Art assets wise, dialogue will be unique).

They will  be rough sketch placeholders for the first build. Making the assets for the city is a huge task. If we can get the city done and working that is our main goal for this build. There won't be anything to do (content wise)  ...

Our Development Blog on Trello

Hey guys super excited to share this with you guys.  One of the aspects of our Patreon that we wanted to accomplish is more transparency with all patrons and with all non patron supporters.  After doing some research we have chosen to use Trello so that all of our fans can watch and see where we are regarding our builds.  Insiders will get way more detail and have a greater understanding of what we are trying to accomplish during each stage.  We are going also be using Trello...

Bi-Weekly Web Show Next Week

So part of our new direction we want to have weekly web show.  The production quality will increase over time as we invest in new equipment and set-ups, but for now it will resemble our previous Q&A's.  This post is for all of you to post your questions.  I will take these questions and we will answer these during the first 15-20 mins of the show. 

$20.00 supporters I will make a separate post for your subjects we will discuss. Which will comprise the last 2/3r...

Character Sheet for Arokka (Guard Captain)

This character was heavily based on Korra. She is somewhat amazonian, and will provide an important role in the game. The captain will be the key for all stories lines when progressing through the gatehouses to the next tier of the city.  Each class will have a different story and goals but the gatehouses will act like way-points for the overall game.  Moving to the next tier will unlock more objectives and events for you to interact with.  As you open up other areas during...
