Articles - Avolition

Avolition is a 3D, arcade style, H&S, dungeon-crawling game for Windows, Linux and Mac. It's designed to run not only on modern, high-end hardware, but also (or even mainly) on computers that are a few years old. It uses only the most important, basic techniques to render visually pleasing scenes without overstraining the hardware. These include: Dynamic, per-pixel lighting Gloss, glow and normal mapping Dynamic soft shadows Fullscreen bloom/glow filter Antialiasing (multisample) The player can select a character class and customize it using just 3 sliders. For example when selecting a spell-caster class, the player can balance between dealing high damage to a single target or lower damage but to multiple enemies at once. Each class has only 2 active skills, but each skill is unique - this is not just a mix of ranged and melee attacks with different visual effects that one might see in other games.
