The goal of this game will be to have a single player game (although multiplayer could be an option in the future) with a strong story and the focus on puzzle solving. Shooting will be there but it should not be the most important thing. <p> The game will use the Crystal Space 3D engine (<a href="http://crystal.linuxgames.com">http://crystal.linuxgames.com</a>) and will be Open Source. There will also be free levels but the option is kept open for commercial levels in the future. <p> The game plays in the dream world. To have a summary on the storyline visit the Dreams Eternal home page at <a href="http://dreams.sourceforge.net">http://dreams.sourceforge.net/</a>. <p> I'm looking for artists and programmers to help me with this game. </blockquote> | New Crystal Space project | default | |
