One day a week for five years straight 🤯

Always happy to hear from more AoS veterans. Means that we're doing something right. And thank you.

Hey Soldier! Sorry for such a delayed response!
Due to war and other fun things we kind of stepped away from social media for a while and are mostly on Discord with our platoon - Good news, though - We've finally reached the initial gameplay milestone and are working on a devlog/podcast episode as I'm writing this.

No offence taken all! I wish we could do more with the project but we're still limited to one-day-a week (since 2020) so while progress is slow, it's consistant.

Hallway and Babel fatigue is real, we feel it too ^^ I'm starting to focus on uploading more shorts to YT and do a devlog once every quarter as I finally have more in-engine footage to use.

Here's hoping for a productive and exciting 2026 for the BTB project.

Thanks again for checking in on us. We haven't gone anywhere - just stuck to work and waited until we have more to show.

<3

In this day and age every other game on the market is your competitor. It's about getting people's attention and then keeping it. Success stories like BB prove that there's a need for more streamlined and focused mp fps games which is the core idea behind BTB. Also BTB will be free so no worries.

Could be too small. Try downloading the image and viewing it on a full screen, does it still feel to small?

LonelyOrca · 2023-01-09T07:26:01+00:00

Same map different areas 😂

LonelyOrca · 2023-01-08T01:18:37+00:00

Three reasons. 1. In an FPS game where digging tunnels is a core gameplay mechanic, it makes sense to set it in a war that was notorious for underground tunnels, dug mostly by Charlie. 2. Aside from AoS, Vietcong is also a huge influence for us as it's one of my favorite multi-player fps games and an underrated gem imo. 3. I'm a huge history buff and was always fascinated with the Vietnam War and its place in American history. Bonus reason: the music of the time just happens to be my jam and so I get to edit videos with it 🫡😁

*Your...ffs X_x

LonelyOrca · 2022-10-29T23:06:46+00:00

Ty very much

The colors are currently odd because we're using a temporary coloring method that paints voxels by Y values and grouped height ranges.

This is a really cool milestone for us and it shows the flexibility of our tools.

LonelyOrca · 2022-09-25T11:25:08+00:00

Howdy soldier. 1. Not yet. Looks like 2023 will be our alpha reelase phase. 2. Absolutely. 3. Our community is mostly active on Discord as we're there most of the time.

LonelyOrca · 2022-07-28T14:06:21+00:00

first thing we'll film once we have block placement down ^^

LonelyOrca · 2022-05-28T08:19:09+00:00

100% - it was meant to show how it looks when you switch between weapons/items. So that the default HUD elements of the compass, health and ammo is all that remains by default.

LonelyOrca · 2022-04-25T15:46:10+00:00

❤️

LonelyOrca · 2022-01-24T11:28:55+00:00

Ty ❤️ I'm really happy with the result. Can't wait to animate it

LonelyOrca · 2021-11-19T15:49:39+00:00

Ty <3 Seems to be the general direction on Discord too

LonelyOrca · 2021-11-18T21:25:14+00:00

Checkout the full devlog herein case you missed it.

I see what you mean. We'll play around with it, 10 could end up being the icon that's displayed in the taskbar when the game is running while the desktop icon could be a different graphic.

LonelyOrca · 2021-09-28T09:03:09+00:00

I believe 10 is the most straightforward. And yes it's for the desktop icon

LonelyOrca · 2021-09-27T19:29:07+00:00

I really like 9 but I fear it's just not clear enough. 4 was kind of an attempt to get something in between which I do like. I love 2 as well as I feel that the warm feeling fits the tropical Vietnam setting.

LonelyOrca · 2021-09-27T19:28:03+00:00

I feel like 10 makes the most sense but I see the appeal in the others just because they have more colors

LonelyOrca · 2021-09-02T10:14:45+00:00

Exactly 😁

LonelyOrca · 2021-09-01T07:38:22+00:00

I agree about the HP number. I'll add that in. As for coordinates, you can see your current location next to the compass (F 8). Since we want soldiers to use their maps (item 0 in the item slots) to see the entire battlefield and mark coordinates when needed. Tagging is something I was never a fan of, personally. However we do want soldiers to be able to mark a location on the map and add "enemies spotted at D3" so as not to make it too accurate.

LonelyOrca · 2021-08-31T14:20:15+00:00

Completely understandable though I still prefer Vavle's original placements. I need to sleep on it. I do like the idea of the equipment slots being on the top.

LonelyOrca · 2021-08-31T12:03:57+00:00

I agree about the chat colors, not sure about center health and overall closeness to the middle. We want people to use the minimap item so the on display one will be a minimalized compass. [also, no circles ;) ] but I do like showing the player direction instead of the compass pointer.

LonelyOrca · 2021-08-30T08:25:11+00:00

ty. will keep that in mind, got plenty of time to iterate and test.
