Right now there is no better time to test your gaming survival instinct. Do you think you can climb a mountain with a congregation of adorable crashed scouts? there is braidOr, say you want to build a wooden log at a time? Well, Velheim There may be a game for you.
Nevertheless, with so much competition, it can be difficult to stand out. enter Chronos: The New DawnA time-traveling horror game from the Block team, which attracts its world to frame its world from real-world history. This year in gamescom, we are the lead author of the project, Grzegorz, like Grzegorz, to discuss the motivations behind the latest forest of the studio, in the horror with the complex past of Poland, sitting on the back of the latest forest of the studio, sitting in the back of the studio, Neon origin evezelianAnd 1982 talk,
“At some points of the Ballobe team, we realized that we are really good to put Poland in sports,” as we explain. “We did so ReviewerWe did so mediumBut we have never done it on such a large scale. ,
In ChronosThe players step into a mysterious’ traveler’s metallic stomppers, whose job is to survive in a desolate barren land version in Poland in view of an incident called The Change. As the player discovers the souls of the remaining people and gives crops, they have to navigate between changes in time, manage rare resources and close the mutated figures. The world is terrible and uncomfortable, reminding you with every strange floor or wind whistle of how isolated you are.
Chronos However, a fictional field is not set, and the game is based on the real -world district of Nova Huta, located outside the Central Cracko (Home Base of the Studio). “The entire district is a communist district that was built immediately after the war, when Poland was under the influence of the Soviet Union – the Dark Times,” like.
“But due to the darkness, we really thought that it works well to tie it well that we continued with the subjects that we wanted to deal with the whole game”. ,Chronos Is there a little bit about solidarity and humanity – but the question is what will happen when people meet together and something bad happens? ,
The ‘bad’ under consideration is the above ‘change’, a virus that allows ‘humans’ to merge into violent, muscular demons. “(In Chronos) Being together is not really a good thing, “Like notes.” In real life in Poland, we stand against the Soviet Union, and we have originally destroyed the government with solidarity. We asked ourselves, if no martial law was introduced due to illness? “In the context of the Panth Anime Series Neon Genesis Evengelian, it is called ‘hedgehog dilemma’,” basically, (people) hurt each other when they are getting closer, keeping in mind a psychological metaphor. “
Man -wise
Despite its heavy undertakings, as it was clarified that the team was not trying to make any broad political statement and was just drawing with their own experience, such as growing up in the area. “We knew that (which we had) was good, but when telling the story we needed to be very soft and aware,” as told. “This is good when you are telling such a story that has a background, and the communist background was really rich.” Like said. “And we don’t need to do research,” they jokingly.
to give Chronos A personal feeling, the team did not rely on the new imagery to create cruelist settings. Instead of creating images for the location, however, they reached family members from their childhood in search of memories of the region. “Because we wanted to reproduce the vibe of the city, we decided that they do not make pictures or take pictures.” As it says. “I showed my mother the trailer, because she is still living there in Nova Huta, and she was so, what did you do? He joked.
It is easy to understand his response, especially given how left Chronos Looks at speed. Walls are frescoes, furniture overturned, and all signs of regular life seem to be shed. Like how the model came together to visit the art team often. “This was really a pain for all 3D artists,” he jokingly said. “(They will say) This is a game. It’s not a museum,” they continued. “This is for me.”
At the beginning of our demo, we faced a bulletin board flowing with the flying people of the missing persons, a quick reminder that was once related to the regular people of the city. The solid world building, such as explained, also ended as the faces of the missing persons who assisted the team’s photographs. “(Family members) all needed to sign the papers and all that, and they are now in the game.
Shadow
Nevertheless, despite these personal touches, such as it is not innocent to the fact Chronos Compared to other horror games like dead Space And resident Evil, “Chronos Do we have a love letter for all those games, “like.” (But) When creating a new IP, we decided to treat ourselves and create a (game) that would scratch all our itching. ,
Hot with high heels of studio success Silent Hill 2 RemakeThe Block team was eager to push in a different direction Chronos“We knew that we need to do something else again except James Sundarland,” like. “He was a very psychological … we also wanted Chronos To be deep, but in a different direction, so we thought about different styles and sub-style, and we decided not only on some science-fi, but also body horror. ,
During the research phase, such as the team found inspiration in John Carpenter’s 1982 science-fi thriller, talk“The design of the demons was taken from that one,” as it explains. “But, we needed it to work as an opponent in a game, so we decided to create this merge system to make it unique for the players.”
Like players investigate ChronosThey will find the remains of the society, which the game refers to as orphans, is included in asymmetrical figures. If you fail to remove each enemy cleverly, they can add forces, a much more dangerous enemy swelling – a unique system that forces you to act with intentions.
“It is always good for being an opponent that does a funny work on its own, and you don’t have to know the script of the entire fight – (luggage) just,” like notes. “Very soon in the game, you can fight a boss, and it’s not scripted; it’s there because you did not play well.”
Chronos: The New Dawn Paying tribute to the earlier horror games, which affects the effort and true functioning with a complicated enemy system and a boat of personal knowledge. While we would not know how it would be launched by next week, such as left us with some knowledge on how to survive. “Stay prepared and load your guns again, manage your inventory correctly, and you will recover – every battle is a puzzle – and of course, read all notes.”
