Arx - End Of Sun is a new free and fan made game that is based on the first person dungeon RPG : Arx Fatalis developed by Arkane Studios. In our game world you will play out the events ( with a liberal dose of poetic licence ) that precede the original story of Arx Fatalis. You will no longer require a copy of Doom3 to play Arx - End Of Sun. We are now running on a custom version of the engine code and we use no assets from any commercial titles in our game.
Finally we are proud to present to you all the first demonstration video of “rx - End of Sun”
This video is intended as a technical demonstration more than actual game/story contents. The map is exclusively built to demonstrate what we have achieved so far regarding game-play and game mechanics.
The assets created for this demonstration, such as textures and props models will be used further on in development for the game itself, but expect to see a vast array of extra materials in the full release.
Here a little summary on what you are going to see in our first demo:
- Inventory system, Journal system, Magic runes, Store quick magic and magic mode system.
- New interactions such as opening doors/chests or manual drop pickup world items.
- Water physics with underwater blur effects and water drip visuals when raising from the water.
- Readable game objects system, such books, area/shop signs or secret notes.
- Poison damage effects and invisibility effects.
Can't get out the water ? ;)
Very nice work, guys. It seems to be working well. The HUD is simple but understandable.
Yeah lol, sorry about the water, the physics isn't perfect and works well only on straight walls for raise up, we forgot to put an invisible brush there.
Gotta say, looks brilliant, can't wait :D
you guys are awesome!!! i loved arx fatalis...and i think i am gonna love this
wow you hit that FIREBALL in that ZOMBIES BALLS . . . . LOL, he was holding it even after he died . . .
AWESOME gameplay, you guy keep it up !
is looking good!
Looks very good. Bit empty enviorments, but still amazing work.
I like how the sounds of the first Arx have been kept. This is really looking good. Keep up the good work.
Hi
Thank you for watching the video, glad you like it.
Seems we may have to remove the original sounds unfortunately (http://arxendofsun.solarsplace.com/?p=188) - but don't worry, we can pretty much do the same things, just has to be media created by us.
Cheers
Yes. I heard about that. That sucks completely. Companies are always ruined when a bigger company buys them. I don't like Bethesda either. At least the mod can continue. Shame about the sounds though.
Some people are going to miss that exit from the caves (just after he cured himself from poison and jumped up on that little thing). Just thought you might want to know that.
