Latest News: Goblins!
4 comments by frit on May 13th, 2013
NEWS FLASH: Check out our feature on Nintendo Life for some juicy inside information!
Like any other character design we want our goblins to feel original and we want the story to back up their existence.
I started collecting tons of references for goblins and similar mythical humanoids - a good way to know what to avoid and what to keep. In the end the most important thing in a good character design is personality. I wanted FoM's goblins to have plenty of personality ranging from goofy to sinister.
Here's few sketches I did.
We decided to go with a couple of the designs and started doing some more eloborate b/w concepts.
A goblin warrior riding a green lama like creature (a lima maybe?).
So what's your favorite goblins of all time?

This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
We have the first 4 episodes planned out.
As for length, if we can afford to make longer episodes at the same quality we will pack as much as time allows.
Wow looks awesome, i really like the visual style.
Gonna track this.
Also what are your distribution plans? Retail/Steam/Desura/DRM Free ?
Thanks,
We intend to distribute this through Steam, OUYA Appstore, iOS Appstore, Android Appstore, Mac Appstore and Windows Appstore. We are also approaching Nintendo in the hopes that we can get it out on Nintendo Wii U. (For Steam we need to be green lit first)
We don't really need DRM on this game because of the online play and the cross device play, so I don't think there will be any DRM. That said, I don't know how it works on Wii U. Steam is also a kind of DRM and we will have to abide the terms given on each platform.
Just to add, we don't have a platform release schedule yet, but I think we most likely will start with OUYA and iPad3+. (Not decided)
OK one last batch of questions
1. im curois what was the dissison to have the gamne split into episodes rather than haveintg it in all one game?
2.Will you be able to chose your class at the begning or will you have a defult chartor thaty will devlop over time?
3.hOW MANY CHQARTORS CLASSES WILL YOU HAVE in the first episode?
4.I dont understand the episode thing can you explain more?Like will some of the overworld map areas be restgricted to certin episodes or like willcertinsiode quests be in certin episodes or cxertin trown will be in certin e pisodes? iu dont udnerstand can you explain it more and how itl all work?
4.Willl the overworld be in episode 1?
5.Will you have collectbles?
6.Will each episode be releasdhed over time?
7.Will you eventully bundle the episodes inmto one package for a single price so people will not have to dowlaod each one seprately?
9.will the overworld pasrt be seprate to the narritive parts
8.Will each Class have a seprate skill tree?
9.Will you have wside quests?
10.Will there be alolut of people to talk to in town? if so will there be shops?
11.Will there be diloge options?

13.Will you ever release a box copyh?

Sorry for all the questions but im really looking forwoird to the game il be trackikng it offten wish you al lthe best of luck!!!
1. Financing. We simply don't have $10M to make everything we want, so we divide it into episodes.
2. No class choices in the first episode. Later you might swap people in your party. (much like NWN)
3. There are 4-6 unique characters in the first episode. Each character is much like a separate class.
4. Yes
5. You may collect several things. (Monsters?)
6. Yes, we plan 4-8 months between each episode. We will try to keep the wait short.
7. Of course.
8.1 The overworld will be part of the story. (This is a Narrative driven RPG - not a dungeon crawler)
8.2 Yes, separate skill tree - some skills might be shared though.
9. Yes, there will be sidequests. We will place them where they fit.
10. You shall be able to talk to all NPCs - some more than others of course. And there will be shops.
11. Dialogue options: Yes, we intend to have some of those. (To some degree)
12. Free beta for everyone!!
13. I wish - but I don't think so.
14. No, again this is about the budget! We will rather give you 5 hours of high quality than 20 hours of reduced quality.
15. No DRM - The game will have online save features so you can play on your PC and continue on your mobile device while on the bus. (You shall also be able to play offline on a single device, but it will then never be able to sync with other devices.)
16. Towns: We have one city, The Desert City (unnamed), in episode 1. There is a Capital City in Episode 2....
( I cleaned up (Deleted) your other questions above after answering them)
Thank you for trying to keep your questions in one post! :-)
