Im curious as to what happens to a games licence per se, when their developer goes bust? Im guessing the title and names and such are not burned and left in the dirt and someone cant just come along and pick the title up then remake it. For instance, an old game I have lying about is martian gothic, now its developer was…

I used to play DayZ back when it was an Arma 2 mod and it surprises me to see how such an unfinished game can remain listed as a "Top Seller" every week since the game's initial release into Early Access, it seems like no other game on Steam has ever been a "Top Seller" for this length of time. If I had to make a guess,…

Unfortunately the model that got swapped in was a rough in model i made of…

Hey I've been thinking of making a game now for a while, and I'm gonna give it a try. I'm not a random guy who likes playing games and now wants to make some, even though this is going to be my first post take it serious. About the game: The game wont have any narrative design which would prevent lots of works in documents…
Hi everyone, :) I’m starting a new project: a sci-fi Scout Hover Bike set within a small urban perimeter checkpoint bay. The scene will have an overcast, damp, slightly neglected atmosphere, but the location should still feel operational and believable. For this project, I want to explore mechanical sci-fi and hard-surface…
How'd everyone go? Our weird social/tabletop game thing Toil and Trouble (One of 5 games with the same name in this years jam) seemed to go down quite well. http://globalgamejam.org/2016/games/toil-trouble-0 If you want people to playtest your game, I can recommend drawing an enormous pentagram in a public area and handing…
its got nothing to do with the time it was made, and its probably got nothing to do with the skill of the people involved. Much more likely, it's all about the game getting canned about 2 months into development but someone thinking a can would look bad for investors, and just putting it out as it was. Ninty and sony and…
