# When will the game be out ?
1st of April 2024 !
Here's a fun fact: I started the project on the 1st of April 2022 and for the first month, it was just a some text on a black background with 3 grey boxes listing the choices. What a long way!
# What is the monetization of the game ?
It's a free game! There is no cash shop, no micro transactions. But the chests in-game are filled with gold coins !
# Did you really do everything ?
I put in my best effort.
Almost all the 3D objects are my creations, with 95% of the textures meticulously hand-painted.
Being a data engineer, I crafted all the code myself, including a complete Django backend to seamlessly integrate everything into the game.
Another fun fact: the voice you hear in French? That's me, too!
However, the awe-inspiring music that fills the game was expertly composed by the talented Rivblazing.
# Why ancient egypt ?
I love the mystery and the art surrounding ancient cultures especially egyptian myths. And I also feel like it's a great setting to have some magic involved.
# Will the game be released on console ?
I would have dearly loved to, but it demands both time and money. It's not in the plans for now, but perhaps someday in the future.
# What were your inspirations ?
Many of them! Almost every game I've played has inspired me in some way. I even keep a notebook to write down all the fantastic ideas some games have. However, the very first game was "This War Of Mine." It's a great game, but I felt frustrated because I couldn't understand why there weren't more events popping up.
# What was the hardest part ?
Definitely adding more content to the game, such as new events. Even though there are already TONs of events, creating a very diverse range of experiences for players requires at least two TONs more events. But I'm getting there!
