I am definitely interested. Hope there will be a demo.
Hi guys, thanks for all the support (and moneys!).
We don't have yet.
We are still fine tuning difficulty levels and since all your troops and money carry over from one level to another it's a tricky thing to get a nice balance.
The only thing we know we don't want is for a level to take over 1 hour and then you die just to restart everything again. Expect levels to go from 5 to 20 minutes.
We are a small team, putting up a demo means we won't be working on finishing our awesome game
Eurogamer.pt was at our offices last week and will put this week an Under Siege hands-on in Portuguese + Some gameplay videos. Don't know if it will carry over to Eurogamer.net in English.

It's with us since we posted the update in September saying we were supporting it.
It wouldn't make much since otherwise.
Oh, by the way, these screenshots were taken using the "Screenshot" option in the XMB. The next gameplay videos that will pop up in Eurogamer were taking using the "Youtube record video" option at 720p.
Thought you'd all like to know
Curious about the motion control support too. Can you talk about it? How it is in terms of accuracy etc? Do you guys have a preference for one control scheme over the other now?
There've been pretty admirable attempts at doing rts with console controllers but I was never able to really adapt to them.

$14.99? Wipeout HD wasn't even that low when it came out. i don't expect this game to be that price either.
Man said:Interface is nice and clean:
Looks pointer friendly.
wow... that looks pretty amazing... i am looking forward to how usefully will pointer controls be and more info on what devs think about them (will they preffer to play the game with motion controller or standard controller).

Yes, you can video chat during multiplayer games.
HP is now working at Crytek. He did a lot of props and level work here at Seed Studios. Great guy btw
We can't talk about it right now. NDAs and stuff like that, but we're really happy with it.
Right now the game takes around 900MB, with all levels and characters in, but that can change closer to release.

I've had my eye on this one for a while. What engine does the game use? I remember hearing that it uses Phyre.
It'll be interesting to see how the motion controls affect the gameplay. I'll get the game when it launches, but I'll definitely come back and try it with the motion controller to see if it makes anything smoother.
If you are reading this HP, how has your experience with the motion controller been?

The game uses Sony's PhyreEngine as a foundation for low level stuff and then we built our own terrain system, deferred renderer, editor, etc on top of it.

Awesome stuff. So, this game looks like it'll be in the 'Trine' price range. Looks lovely, motion controller support, sleek interface, in depth editor. It has to be. I've no objections to that, as it looks like it'll be worth the money.

New preview on the game. For those who understand Portuguese, it's a pretty good chance to know more about this new psn game. I don't have many time now to translate the main ideas but if I have a bit more time later, I'll write it

Are there any game's right now on ps3 that even have that feature?
Hi guys.
The Eurogamer hands-on was posted today.
Here you have the Portuguese version
And the Google Translate one to English
It seems they liked it! (thanks Jorge!)
And for those who wanted the original pic of our Heroes that we supplied Eurogamer for the front page, here you go:

720p version as well. I haven't finished yet but there has been two gameplay segments so far (looks cool!) and background production as well. Video is 7minutes:34seconds long.

Well you've sold me.
F-Pina said:We are a small team, putting up a demo means we won't be working on finishing our awesome game
Maybe working on one after the game is completed would be a good idea. Couldn't you release a stripped down version that just had a few maps/campaign levels selectable, and maybe a 1v1 Multiplayer?
Just saying, a demo could help.
I'll be buying it day 1 though. :lol

First time learning about this game, looks really interesting and has me sold. A lot of these DD games are surely paving the way for great visuals more so than most $6 retail games.
Zen said:
Yes, that is possible.
OR... You can ask a friend to share it on PSN
And yes we are chatty! I think we have been reading Gaf since 2004 or 2005 (only managed to register in 2006 though
), it only made sense to talk about our game where we normally read and discuss games. Regarding the Mouse and keyboard and why we don't support it (again).
This was discussed intensely at the offices when we were designing the thing and got cut right at the beginning.
This was not easy since we are big fans of RTSs like "Company of Heroes", "Rise of Legends" and "Generals" (Generals doesn't get the love it deserved) and we can't wait to play Starcraft2, but having a Keyboard and Mouse with you on your sofa or asking everyone to plug in this devices just to play our game doesn't make any sense.
Supporting the Playstation Move was an easy... er... "move"
It makes sense.
Well, if a small game like ours manages to incorporate the Move correctly and make it a fact that RTSs on consoles make sense now, maybe we can expect our favorite developers getting they're games on console.

well if you guys can implement the Move and feel like the game is made for it i'll definitely have to pick the controller up
F-Pina, with the PlayStation Move now announced, which type of pointing method are you using? There is laser pointing (a ray cast from the 3D object that is the Move) or 'draw pointing' (X&Y position of sphere) ?
I'm also assuming the camera is moved with the subcontroller/DS3 while the cursor moves freely within the screen space.

When you're using the motion controller will the game be using just the move controller on it's own or will you be doing Endwar-style voice commands through the PS Eye in addition to the pointer? Or can you not speak about this stuff because of the NDA?
When can we expect to see more from the game- E3 or sooner?
