We're in the final stretch of Symphony of the Serpent and things are getting... crunchy. It's a sprint to the finish... or should I say a sprint to the start of something new! As of last week we've been testing the first build of the game (the first 10 minutes of play) and ironing out the kinks. Animation polish is underway and our new animator is hard at work enhancing the lip sync and acting of all the shots. The engine is mostly complete however the backend systems are still in the works. Starting next month, PC users will downl...

Symphony of the Serpent is coming together! Only a couple more systems need to be implemented before the engine is officially completed. All the scenes for chapter 1 have been animated and rendered.... wait... Let's back up a second. I have a huge announcement! All of the completed scenes for SotS are now being punched up by a new animator! Who is this animator you might ask? A Disney animator! That's not a joke. To meet the quality demands of this new game I've determined that the character acting and lip sync needs some high-end, ...

Check out the new movement and map style in Symphony of the Serpent! Here you can see the isometric view in full display. Escovia is an arid place, but you can still expect sand storms! Better not venture too far out in the desert when one of these storms is on the way. Pictured above is the red light district of Escovia. We're testing some new methods of displaying areas on the screen and these new maps are not short on cool weather, lighting, shadow, and focus effects that make it pop in a way that the previous titles haven't.

Here's a small preview of the fighting system that's coming in Symphony of the Serpent. It's still far from complete, but you can get an idea of what it'll look like.As I've stated in the past, this fighting system will not be skill based or turn based. That was important to me going into it. What we have here is something of real-time chess. It's all about choosing your movement, upgrading your abilities and health, finding items, and using special moves. There will be lots of enemy types with different movement pattern...

What the hell? Looks like someone's in over his head. Symphony of the Serpents development has been all about post processing the finished shots to add all that extra bit of polish that makes everything pop... and also the tedious task of lip-sync as we continue to get more and more finalized voicework for the scenes. In Symphony's first chapter, coming this July, there's a lot riding on some solid acting. Thankfully our talent hiring process has been above even that of TGO and ToN. We've got a stellar cast of actors putting i...

With all the voiced dialog coming in Symphony of the Serpent's first chapter comes a lot of lip syncing that needs done. Any guesses as to what's being said in the above animation? It's been a bit of a gear shift going back to the animation portion, but with all the new voiced lines it's been exciting to see them come to life. Most of this week will be spent getting the final edits in place and much of the lip syncing done. Time is ticking and the launch date is approaching! Exciting times!The Genesis Order will also get another...

You've heard about the new systems in Symphony of the Serpent but perhaps this mockup draft of the menu interface can shed some more light on these changes.

Symphony of the Serpent's chapter 1 scenes have been animated! We're now moving full-steam ahead with editing the massive amount of voicework that will be needed from the general dialog scripts and voiced scenes.

Getting lost in the desert is a death sentence, but it beats getting caught by a gang of thieves.

Symphony of the Serpent has a release date! After lots of planning, scheduling, and making the decision to not cut any scene ideas from chapter 1, the release date is now set. The scenes in this first chapter are much more ambitious than the previous titles both in length and in quality. By my calculations the game could be ready as early as June 15th, but instead of setting up a disappointing delay I will stake my reputation of never being late on the day of July 2nd.There are roughly 130 animated shots in the script with lots of voice lines t...
