The graphics style is very similar to that of Psychonauts which is one of my favorite games :)

I dont need a complex video showing things off. I just want to see a video like the first video.
Creator SirSilica on April 18, 2012
They've already said that an update video is coming soon. They're in the middle of moving, so try to cut them a little slack.
Creator Avandris on April 18, 2012
People demanding that we get more videos and so forth need to calm down a little bit. I imagine a lot of work is going into the production of the game. These things take time! They have given us images and I'm sure that as soon as they are able to give us a video they will.
There does seem to be a good amount of response on these comments at least, it is far superior to the response rate you would get from larger companies! Plus this is still early days, give them time to get themselves organised!
Keep up the good work Yogscast! We love you guys!
Creator Crippleicious on April 18, 2012
Nice lighting effects =)
Creator Gareth on April 18, 2012
I am sorry Kris but the lack of communication from the yogcast is concerning to say the least.... it is showing at the moment that all the hype about communicating with the player base to create a game together is just a spin off. They have released a SoI but still no update? Not even a post on the forums?
Can you poke them to at least release a statement about their intentions on backing this?
Creator Sam Schechter on April 17, 2012
first the graphics just look better and better, although that might be due to the fact that explosions tend to make everything that much more amazing.
Creator Brayden Copelin on April 17, 2012
What about blocks how different will mining look from mine craft? Just curious. Like will it be a hole or a square hole????
Creator Winterkewl Games LLC on April 17, 2012
@Arctrooper98 do you know how long those developers had and how much money they spent on that technology??? MILLLIONS heheh we'll have charcter customization but it won't be near as complicated as spore. Sorry! :)
Creator Arctrooper98 on April 17, 2012
U know, Character customization akin to spore wouldn't be such a bad idea... Make spore like mechanics for pre made body parts. (beard, body, etc.) p.s. sry for repeating myself.
Creator Winterkewl Games LLC on April 17, 2012
@YoungGamer7Thst but CALM is the opposite of what we need, people need to be FIRED UP! Sorry, we don't have a plan for a demo at this time. Pre-alpha will be the earliest access. Thanks!
Creator xYoungGamer on April 17, 2012
Also make a brief game demo, everyone is overfilled and high with spoilers for this game! I cant concentrate without thinking about it, if a demo is given, that will calm things down, people will get a little playthrough until the full game!
Creator xYoungGamer on April 17, 2012
82228Brilliant Idea ! Daniel Yount soundtrack !!!! He is amazing!!!! Please he is soo good ! :) This will be on the fourm too when it comes !!!!!
Creator Reuben Joseph on April 17, 2012
will they be a sound-track to this game? If so any chance of it being done by Daniel Yount? I really like the stuff he's done for the Yogscast.
Creator Winterkewl Games LLC on April 17, 2012
@JeffmarlyParky Sorry we don't have an eta yet.
