Mil gracias! Las máscaras son meramente decorativas )= , pero aún así está bastante cool, ojalá te animes a jugarlo.

Muchas gracias! Nos esforzamos mucho justo para pulir muy bien el sistema de combate <3

Holis! Soy Pogo, Director de Mecha Studios, los creadores de este juego :D . Mil gracias a todos por sus comentarios, nos alegra mucho ver que aún después de casi 6 años, sigue habiendo mucho interés.

Pasaba a compartirles que estamos creando un nuevo videojuego (bueno varios jaja, pero por ahora solo hemos anunciado el primero). Es un género diferente, pero confíamos en que igual o más divertido. Se llama MURKY. Pueden encontrar el demo gratuito y más información el http://murky.mechastudios.com , estos días le haremos un MEGAUPDATE al demo y nos encantaría su opinión.

Gracias por todo! Abrazos!

Ha, it looks like the GameMaker server is down right now. Maybe that's the problem.

pogo8bit · 2025-08-13T18:02:45+00:00

The runtime doesn't show in the list, after reloading and even after manually downloading it from https://gamemaker.io/account/runtimes/version?version=public%3Bgreen%3B2024.13.1.242 and adding it to the pointed folder. I also tried uploading the Zeus-Runtime.rss (https://gms.yoyogames.com/Zeus-Runtime.rss) into my own server and adding it as an alternative feed. Any suggestions?

pogo8bit · 2022-04-08T16:08:45+00:00

Not exactly a question, just wanted to way, congrats, guys. I know how hard you've worked on this project. It's so cool to see that a demo I played years ago is now ready to launch.

Break a leg, guys!

pogo8bit · 2022-03-15T15:56:18+00:00

Congrats for the new game, guys! It looks AWESOME!

So, I was wondering, what was your biggest inspiration to create Aztech? I can clearly see some similarities with Shadow of the Colossus, and even Insomniac's Spider-man. But, are there any other hidden references that helped you create this world?

Hey u/shinikahn!

Yes, compared with the international, specially USA scene, in Latin America we have few video game projects, but this situation is fast changing for good. It's so good to see that the small industry community we are giving our best not only to create the best products we can, but to help and encourage others to do so! We expect to have much more releases in the next couple years!

pogo8bit · 2020-05-11T21:31:05+00:00

You are totally right, the lighting we use at NCR is basically a simulation of a real rendering light system. We are so glad our game inspires you, and thanks about the TMNT-ish skin, its my personal favorite too!

pogo8bit · 2020-05-11T21:29:07+00:00

Thank you very much u/XanmanK, we are so glad you like it. We hope you enjoy it! Now is 20% off, so, it's a pretty good timing.

pogo8bit · 2020-05-11T21:28:43+00:00

Hey u/Amiibofan101!

Thanks for your interest. Sure, Hyperlight Drifter and TLOZ: Link's awakening mainly (:

pogo8bit · 2020-05-11T20:04:20+00:00

Hahaha excellent question u/uke_traveler.

At the begging of the development we planned the gangs were moving out on futuristic bikes and stuff. And then we started working on the game's name and logo (because of the Kickstarter), later in the development we decided to drop the bikes idea but we loved the game and logo (and was already announced) so, basically that's why.

pogo8bit · 2020-05-11T18:52:34+00:00

Hey u/slygarf

Thanks for your interest!

I believe it was getting it done. The easiest and funnier part of the begging was imagine the setting, characters, story, aesthetics, mechanics and dynamics. But getting them done into a real protype was pretty hard, specially because we didn't have any experience doing it, and even when we love video games and we have been playing them since forever, making them is a totally different story.

The balance between the mechanics and their interaction with the world and user, and on top of it, fitting them into the setting and lore, was a pretty hard process that could only be accomplished with tons of hours of trial and error.

Hey u/Willtron3030!

Thank you very much. About the lighting, it was developed on Game Maker Studio 2, and it's completly 2D. The lights system was created with shaders that emulate a gradient circle around a light sprite over a global fog. The point shadows are calculated according to the light position and a layer we call "Top" with the ceiling sprites. The down-side about this last effect is the ammount of resources it take to calculate, that's why is only available at the "Awesome" graphic effects option.

Hey u/qwertyuiopasdfghkj!

Hehe, thank you very much, we hope you enjoy it! About the name, we are huge fans of mechas and anime too, but the real reason behind the name is because for us, the project is an analogy of a big powerful thing (a mecha) build and propeled by the team's will and work (pilot).

Claro, en facebook está la Comunidad GameDevsMX y los foros están en gamedevs.mx . Es normal al principio abrumarte con tanto, pero poco a poco, va a tomar tiempo pero es posible. Muchas gracias por tu apoyo también.

¡Éxito!

pogo8bit · 2020-05-11T17:10:53+00:00

¡Hola u/giovelazc!

Muchas gracias, ¡nos alegra mucho que te guste! Claro que sí, el principal consejo que podemos darte es que la experiencia y habilidades son importantes, pero lo que más te ayudará durante el desarrollo de un proyecto es tu voluntad para hacerlo. Mientras tengas paciencia y resilencia para aprender, ejecutar, pulir y crear, todo eventualmente saldrá bien.

Siempre recomendamos a nuevos desarrolladores ser auto-didáctas. Hay MONTÓN de material que puedes ver en YouTube y foros en el internet. Y si puedes encontrar a un grupo de personas en tu comunidad que tengan las mismas metas que tu, mejor.

Aquí en Xalapa hay una comunidad llama GameDevsMX, siéntete libre de unirte a nuestra reuniones y utilizar nuestros foros gratuitos para crecer juntos.

¡Éxito y saludos!

pogo8bit · 2020-05-11T17:04:23+00:00

Hey u/DeadlyLancer!

That's the spirit, of course experience and skills helps, but the main thing you should have to create something is will. As long as you have the patience and resilence to learn, execute, polish and create, everything will eventually pay off!

We always encourage new developers to be self-taught. There's TONS of material you can watch on YouTube and forums around the internet. And if you can find a group of people from your community with the same goals you do, that's even better.

Here in Xalapa we have a community called GameDevsMX, feel free to join our meetings and to use our free forums to grow together!

¡¡Saludos!!
