Serious developments
If Determinance were a weather-system, it would be an anticyclone approaching fast from the west.
Whilst this obviously doesn’t make any sense, we would like you to take this as meaning that we have a pretty major announcement about our game to come shortly.
In the meantime, here’s a fantastic behind-the-scenes look at the fervent activity which characterises the world’s hottest independent games company:
Here’s Ian, our lead designer, doing hard coding graft…actually testing something…
Ok look, here’s the problem we’re going to have – I’m just going to outline it right away: games development doesn’t really look particularly exciting. But don’t worry, there’s an obvious solution…
Oh yes, that’s right, images of a porcelain chicken. You cannot cope with this…
There is nothing you can do about the chicken now: it has reached a point of proximity.
The hellchicken is distractable only with a copy of PC Gamer, much like that dog thing in the first Harry Potter or something. Shut up.
This week, we discovered that through some subtle lighting tweaks, we were able to make our levels look significantly more dramatic. It’s nice to be able to add some things which can genuinely be considered “finishing touches” and plough merrily onwards towards.
We have continually promised new screenshots in our forums, only to wantonly disregard our assertions in favour of actual development. You will certainly be able to take a look at everything, new lighting and all, in due course, but we ask for your patience while we continue to actually make our game.

Jesus Christ, where did that thing come from? Is this the latest piece of scary and apparently random clutter to be acquired by Ian’s mom, or is there some more sinister explanation?

Wow this was doubtlessly one of the best blurbs I have read on the topic so far. I do not understand where you gather up all of your info but I am impressed! I’m gunna send some individuals over here to take a look at this post. Fantastic, just plain fantastic. I’m just getting into crafting articles myself, nothing remotely close to your writing potential (lol) but I’d love for you to take my articles sometime! here
