Christ based games for GAMERS!?

[Noroom]

Long story short, I'm a gamer. I'm a Christian. I'd like to play a GOOD Christian video game. That doesn't really exist. So, I'm making one. It's an old school RPG (I think you DQ grinders will like it). Here's the link to the game website www.reelise.com. It has trailers, screenshots, music, and most importantly a playable demo! Check it out. We're going to be starting a kickstarter campaign this month, (aug). I'll keep you posted. Till then, spread the word. This can pave the way to a new era in gaming. Christ-based games for gamers.

I like both your grit and your gumption.

Good stuff. ^_^ Like the graphical direction too.

[ccgr]

Awesome and welcome! When you have the final version ready I'll be happy to review it.

[ScotchRobbins]

The premise of this did have me curious. Most developers don't see that spreading the message about Christianity and developing a fun and well crafted title can be done both equally and simultaneously. I hope your attempt is a success in both regards, and I am quite excited.

Hey, glad to see another christian game developer.
If your interested, check out www.christiandevs.com as well. A lot of christian developers and christian game developers, there. Great place to get involved if you want to build up the christian game industry. It's a good community.

Sir I'm looking at it right now! I KNEW I couldn't be the only one attempting something like this. Googled quite a bit and I couldn't find anything. Another guy at another forum said the same thing. I'll be signing up now

[ArchAngel]

Haha, way cool. Out of curiosity, what forum was it and is he on CDN?

[JOJ650s]

Lots of awesome!
I will be sure to try out your game.

[Noroom]

Arch, the person that suggested it.... is... ummmmm, DANG, forgot his name

Will somebody please tell Mr. ChristGamer that PC is not the only computer that exists?

Well, at least the music is good. Sounds like something you would hear in an anime episode. That's saying something considering I use GarageBand sometimes. Haven't been using it lately.

[Chozon1]

PC may not be the only computer that exists, but it's almost certainly the most widely used. Just because Mac's in recent years have been getting moar games, doesn't necessarily mean that it'd be a good move to dev for them. At least, not solely. For a new developer.

In my thinkings, and I've actually heard this before from several people, PC is the smartest platform for a small game dev to use, since it's used worldwide, relatively cheap to build with, and getting your game out there into the mainstream is that much easier.

Just my two scents. I very well could be wrong. I know the app market, both iOS and Android, is a pretty good place too. Arch or Deep would probably know more.

[ArchAngel]

DMR, I'm not sure how much you know about the process of developing games, but it notoriously hard just to get a game published on a console and it is ridiculously easy to do so for the PC.

As for the Mac, which it just occurred to me what you're probably talking about, there isn't as much of a market like the PC (but it is growing, and the number of mac games is growing too. you can always check out the mac games on Steam). However, the tools available for development don't always facilitate Mac development and I believe the one noroom's using doesn't.

Besides, if you really want to run a windows game or app, use bootcamp or some windows emulator.

[Drewsov]

I use bootcamp, and I've never looked back.

...Of course, now I have so much music that I need an external, BUT literally all you need is a copy of Windows and you can download the Boot Camp Utility and install Windows.

Also awesome?

Not complaining about the number of Mac games that are out in a thread that has nothing to do with that, specifically when we've had this discussion before.

better yet? Sell your mac and get a PC.
