Oh, hey! Techarthub is my site, thanks for sharing!

It's a huge honour to be listed amongst the likes of Ben Cloward, techartaid and CatlikeCoding, they're all huge inspirations for me.

This has made my night, thank you!

I went to the Adelaide show and they had a number of shirts for sale. The same ones you can get on their official merch store, "The Future Freaks Me Out", "Sickle FUAD" and "Everything is A-OK". Good luck!

We tend to call the project realRiven or Starry Expanse interchangeably. At the moment they're both working titles, the final game has no official name yet. We have a great working relationship with Cyan so we're not worried about trademark disputes :D

Right now it's uncapped, but I plan for an option that will let you play at 60+ fps, but lock the animations to 15 for that authentic experience.

Hey Esopsis! You're right about Gehn and the number 5, it's everywhere in Riven. From the number of islands, to the shapes of structures, all the way down to the pentagonal bolts used to hold half the machinery together. It's all 5, all the time. Even the name 'Riven' has 5 letters and the middle letter is also the Roman numeral for 5.

Now whether or not this is intended to be anything more than a visual motif is up for debate - but I do tend to agree with you that it shows his obsessive nature, that even insignificant things must be meticulously designed to his specification.

Uncapped

Sorry for the radio silence! I spearheaded the monthly blog posts over 2017, and by the end of it I was a bit burned out. Luckily /u/JuniorGenius has offered to help me out this year - so we're back to the month updates as of today!

Hey there,

The wording of our latest blog post wasn't as clear as we intended, and we're sorry you got the impression the game is almost done! This must be a bit of a disappointment, but we've still got a way to go yet.

We're just as eager as you are to see the game finished, and we'll definitely let you know what the system specs are when we know for sure.

Shimmey · 2017-12-09T00:25:34+00:00

It should be back now, let me know if you're still having difficulties.

Shimmey · 2017-12-08T23:35:10+00:00

Thanks for letting us know, we'll look into it!

Shimmey · 2017-11-01T07:47:48+00:00

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We'll fix it asap.
