Alpha – Page 2 – MMO Fallout

Mad World is still alive and kicking, and this week the developers over at Jandi Soft broke a small stretch of silence to announce that release is still on schedule for 2020. The full post goes into all sorts of details on coming features including the renovation of chapter one, your companion character Dawn, pets, travel, facial expressions, and more!

“Lunar New Year-year of the rat-has come and we want to take this opportunity to shed some light on our current progress, giving you a sneak-peek of what we’ve been working on. We plan to post this sort of dev letter more often so stay around!”

More information as well as new years messages from the team can be found at the link below.

Demonstrably: Citywars Savage Is A Cute Little Demo

This week I played the demo for an upcoming MMO called Citywars Savage.

Citywars Savage is a quaint little upcoming MMORPG with a pretty cool premise. On the surface the game promises hack and slash combat coupled with crafting and resource management. Dig a little deeper and on the list of planned features you’ll find the ability to build and claim your own territory to battle against other players and their cities.

The demo itself took me roughly 45 minutes to play through, it takes you through a mostly linear pathway where you’ll learn how to make money, how to buy and equip better gear, and battle it out against the monsters dotting the small landscape. If Citywars showcases any idea well, it’s how good you can make a game look with some filters, lighting, and fog effects. It runs great, and ends with you killing the Death Knight.

Of course the big feature that’s being advertised with Citywars is the ability to hire and program your own NPCs. Looking at the store page, Citywars will have a graphical interface to streamline the process of coding your own NPCs to do stuff like gather resources and handle crafting while you’re out doing better things. I’ll be fully satisfied if I can program my NPCs to chatter while they are going about their business. It’ll be like having my own RuneScape bot farm.

I’m pretty sure I also encountered a dev while playing, as the game has voice chat and immediately zipped over to me and started chatting about how to access various interfaces. Now that’s customer service.

I can’t wait for more of Citywars to come out and I recommend checking out the short alpha that is available on Steam.

Hunter’s Arena: Legends Coming Next Month

Hunter’s Arena: Legends is an upcoming title from Mantisco, and the developers are looking for some people to take part in the upcoming alpha test. Billing itself as a mashup of battle royale, MOBA, and action RPG, Hunter’s Arena promises quote “Monster hunting, leveling, dungeon raiding, party play, PvP and more! In Hunter’s Arena, you can expereince all the content you’ve enjoyed in MMORPGs within a 30 minute match. Choose one of over 10 characters and survive other players, 20 bosses and 10,000 monsters.”

Interested? Cool. Living in North America? Even better. The alpha sign up sheet is linked below and alpha tests are scheduled to run on October 5 and 6 from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. PDT and EDT. Yes that’s the same time for each time zone as it looks like there will be separate east coast and west coast server tests. Overall two thousand testers will be chosen and receive a Steam key on October 4. If you don’t get an email, well you’re out of luck for now. Thankfully alpha tests are just a step in launching the actual product, so you’ll have a chance to play somewhere down the line.
