Attractive enough not to actively detract form the experience.You'll understand what happens in the first YouTube video you watch. Super clear what's going on, even when zoomed out.It's actually a really hard problem, because the art has to fulfil some very tight design constraints.

These are okay but the answer is almost always the same: I don't plan that far ahead. I like bacon (thick cut) and prefer Picard to Kirk.Ĥ:15 - It seems a lot of questions are of the 'will you add X feature' variety. I worked on maps for Tactical Ops and did a bunch of UT maps myself. Long ago I was a modder on Unreal Tournament, UT2003 for years. I've also written a book on game design called Designing Games. Currently I'm working on the game with Ison, Polish coding prodigy.īefore going indie, I worked at Irrational Games for almost four years, mostly on combat and level design for BioShock Infinite. I started my indie studio Ludeon Studios by myself in 2012 and have gotten help from a number of excellent musicians, artists, and programmers. The game has a bumpin' subreddit at /r/RimWorld. It sold about 120,000 copies off Steam and hit Steam last Friday and took the #1 sales spot (now around #3 with 97% positive reviews)! So I'm pretty stoked about that.
