Gas Powered Games and Chris Taylor have unveiled the first gameplay footage of their upcoming RPG/RTS hybrid, Wildman. According to Taylor, this is extremely early development footage using an older version of their 3D rendering technology with the lighting removed and placeholder models and textures. For those interested in the new tech, Wildman will use deferred rendering and will look significantly better. Wildman features a fixed isometric/top-down camera like Diablo, or Dungeon Siege minus the ability to rotate the camera, and uses standard PC action-RPG controls. In addition, Wildman won’t use any kind of DRM and will support both Offline and Online modes. Enjoy! Continue reading Gas Powered Games’ Wildman Gets Its First Early Footage→
We are pretty sure that a lot of WarCraft fans cannot wait for a new strategy game, based on that universe. Well, even though Blizzard has no such plans – at least for now – a team of modders is creating an unofficial sequel to Warcraft III that will be called, Warcraft: A New Dawn. This mod is still in early stage, but the team has released a new video for it that can be viewed below. It looks cool and promising, and since it’s being developed on Blizzard’s other game, we kind of think that it won’t receive a C&D letter. Enjoy!
