I commend your efforts friend - if the game eventually stops working entirely then we may have to flock to a spiritual successor project instead.
I'm pretty sure that has been suggested before. I can't remember what the thread was called, but years back I remember someone saying there could be goggles for seeing The Hidden that prevent the...
Nearly 2 months on, I think it's safe to say Colonel Mustard was completely full of shit! What a surprise.
Dude, the devs can't stop someone making a rip off, there's no action they can take.
As for time being precious, I have a child and a demanding job, taking 10 minutes out of my day to respond to...
Mate, just cool it a bit. You're sounding childish, and/or genuinely bonkers.
Re: a spiritual successor, there's nothing to stop somebody making a game about a bunch of dudes with assault rifles...
I think maybe I'm starting to get what you mean. A spiritual successor might do everything right, but because it's an imitation it's just not the same, or doesn't feel as good to a Hidden fan? If...
Mate I'm sorry but it is completely illogical to think no one could make a game as good or better than this, that's just a fact. The Hidden is one of my favourite games but like I said, the devs...
No, I said it was illogical to think that no spiritual successor could be as good or better, and I stick by that. The Hidden developers do not possess super powers that no other devs do.
I would...
Mate, I admire your passion, I really do, but I think it's illogical to think that no future game could do this as well or better. I also don't see it being revived if the game is "dead", i.e. not...
I think if the game were to be revived, it would need development work too. Ging has said multiple times that they'd like to, but I'm not sure they'll ever get round to it, and I don't think they're...
Cheers, I'll keep an eye on discord.
Re:experience, I've been in the industry for about 7 years, currently I'm a network programmer for Creative Assembly.
Do you have a site or anything where we can check up on the progress?
I've wanted to do something like this myself for a while, but since having a tiny human all my spare time coding time is...
I promise you this much, I will attempt a spiritual successor at some point, if this project is never revived.
I get the impression the devs are more "gamers" than "game devs" as such. Unless Ging is willing to let others carry the torch, it's unlikely to get any traction. Spiritual successor anyone? :D
In the time since I first started playing b2 (gotta be like 8 years ago right? Fuck I feel old!), I've actually been working as a AAA games programmer, just coming up to my 6th year in the industry....
