This does sound cool... but the play button brings up both options to buy the game for $20, as well as download links? I think $20 is too much for an early alpha. And while I get that many MMOs are downloadable native code, you wrote it using a stack that could be web-based, so that is probably the way to go. Asking people to download and run an .exe is a non-starter for many of us. Too high-risk.
- bschmidt1 2y agoYes, like most MMOs the game client can be downloaded for free so you can play on multiple devices. It's the account that you pay for. Unlike conventional MMOs it's a one-time fee and not a monthly subscription. > you wrote it using a stack that could be web-based Not really because of the memory usage. This has nothing to do with the stack but the file size of the 3D assets used, which directly translates to memory used at run-time. As a desktop app you can fully take advantage of your gaming PC's available RAM and VRAM. > Asking people to download and run an .exe Understandable. Because of this, and that the download size is so large I should probably use a downloader/installer so it doesn't feel like just downloading an exe. Thanks for your feedback!
