Dear friends of the omins, I have some fantastic news for you for this month of May! Steam page Finally the game has its page on Steam! After producing many screenshots, gifs and a video (that is not yet a trailer) it's finally online. You can see it by clicking the button below.
Someone on reddit explained to me that the algorithm of Steam rewards the projects that get high numbers of wishlists. So, have a look at the page and wishlist it to make the omins happy 😀 Official website The official webpage has been also revamped and has now a new fresh look with a press kit page! I invite you to visit it by clicking the following button:
Music composer I would also like to announce the collaboration with the composer Pieter Van Vliet! When I listened to his music I fell in love with the melodies and the exotic sound. So I absolutely wanted similar music for The Omins. Pieter already composed 4 tracks for the game. I am planning to upload them on Soundcloud so that you can listen to them ;) Kickstarter and first demo I do not have yet a precise date for the launch of the Kickstarter campaign, but I can say with 95% certainty that it will be in October 2023 coincidently with the Steam Next Fest. On that occasion, I'm going to publish the first demo on Steam and hopefully this event will give a certain amount of visibility to the game and to the crowdfunding campaign. Development Obviously, I made important progresses also in the development of the game. The most important are:
The construction of walls and gates.
Implemented the player for the music tracks.
Improvement of the animations of the omins.
Introduced different new sound effects.
The sea has a new aspect with effects and animations.
Improved controls and the command menu to give orders to the omins.
That's all folks! Remember that sharing the project with your friends and on social media will help a lot to ensure the success of the project 😀
In conclusion, I'd like to thank all the new people that subscribed to this newsletter. Don't hesitate to contact me at the address below or on Discord to share your thoughts or ask questions about the project.
