Hi All,
I'm currently working on my first game, In Exilium. It's at just over 2 years in the making at this point. In Exilium is a Hack & Slash RPG that focusses on minimalism and discovery. The general premise is you play as a king who was banished from his kingdom to a strange, hostile world. There are no other characters and no other quests in the game. Your goal is to explore this new world and figure out why you were banished and how to get back. There are puzzles, hidden secret things, and lots of diablo style hack & slash combat. The story is rather minimal as well, instead I put a lot of design effort into trying to get the gameplay and game progression to reflect a more abstract theme.
I wrote a rather in depth article explaining my design goals and mentality with this game here: Confluxgames.com . If you have an interest in game design, take a look and let me know what you think.
I also post dev progress updates on my youtube channel: www.youtube.com/ConfluxGames
here is the latest progress video:
