It reaches the quality you expect from a AAA experience while adhering to some of the aesthetic technical limits of older hardware. Prodeus is the first person shooter of old, reimagined using modern rendering techniques. Then both games can be improved even more (as Pre-Alpha the second one need a lot of improvments), but of one thing i am always sure, unfortunately nice graphics does not guarantee a nice game. Instead, i had no chance to try Prodeus, but taking in consideration that it is in pre-alpha, it does not look that bad to me that HUD is pretty big (useless the player is almost blind :lol:) enemies are a bit too slow, sounds and animations can surely be improved (i thought that those animations are less than 30 frames honestly lol). I think that " De gustibus non est disputandum", both the games are not completed yet and is too early to let out free considerationss (bad or good ones).Thx to a friend of mine, i had a nice taste of Ion Maiden 1 year ago or so, on his PC, as i remember it was in Beta and for me it was already quite completed and amazing as it was, fast paced, hard to play on the higest difficulty (sorry, i can't remember the name right now) and the Bombs were so damn funny to use and, imho it does not need modern graphics, look at Cuphead, it had a lot of success. I am going to hard core pass the word around as much as I can, the proj deserves massive respect. Man, the quality is off the chain you guys should be really God damn proud of what you accomplished. Prodeus looks freaking incredible, you can totally tell you guys are not just Devs but are also hard core gamers for real / legit \m/ it show in the game. Holy Shit!!! OMG, this makes Ion Maiden look like garbage, I wish I could refund it and give you the money I spent on it. I really like that they are going for what they want instead of abiding by the so-called rules. Not everything has to be 100% retro, as you've already pointed out that would get old real fast. The level design is old school with hints of Doom 2016 (mainly the way they seem to handle enemy spawns and monster closets), the shooting is a mix of the "point-and-click" mechanics of old FPS and the ADS focused modern stuff etc., that sort of duality is what the graphics are going for too. The aim here is not to make a retro shooter but to make a nice indie FPS that mixes the old with the new. It has multiple purposes though: you will be able to choose between the 2D sprite aesthetic and the original 3D models in the final game as shown here:Īnd if you really look at it without being biased towards authentic retro graphics / a retro engine (that happens a lot around here to nobody's surprise :lol:) I think what you'll find is that the visuals make sense in the context of the game. Take on the campaign in 4-player co-op, and dive into the fray in 16-player Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, CTF, and more-then take things to the next level by creating and sharing custom game modes.īurst blood vessels listening to a supercharged metal soundtrack by retro FPS composer Andrew Hulshult that dynamically changes gears to accompany your actions.I think the tech is neat the way it portrays models as low-res low-framerate sprite animations, but to actually use it in the game to evoke "retro" is weird, yes.
