Questions about development

[Gradydad]

I must admit, I was very surprised when I first saw this game announced. It came out of nowhere from a studio I've never heard of. Considering I sometimes see devs on this board, I figured I'd ask some questions about the studio and the game's development.

1. Who are you guys? Have you worked on any projects before? How big is your dev team?

2. Where are you getting such high quality assets? From what little has been shown so far, one could easily mistake this game as being AAA. Are any premade assets being used in development?

3. As an indie studio, how are you managing funding? Should we expect a Kickstarter or Early Access to secure funding for the game's development?

4. When can we expect further info about the game?

I'm happy to hear that we appear to have left you with a surprising and positive impression. Thank you!

1.

What you see in the gameplay reveal has been done by Ulrik and myself, but we appreciate that we need a bigger team in order to deliver a fully fleshed out game, that we all get to enjoy. To that end, we're currently seeking to partner with several experienced developers who can help us make the game the best it can be.

We're currently scaling up the team to around 14-16 developers.

The environment was put together by myself from modified pre-made assets from a lot of various sources. There is a ton of fantastic resources out there which we put to good use, now that it just was the two of us at the time. All the characters, however, are made by Ulrik.

3.

We are sorting funding elsewhere. While we originally wanted to crowdfund, we ultimately decided against it.

4.

We want to wait until we have something concrete to share - but hope that we have some significant news in the near future. For whatever it is worth.
