Some screen shots and video clips about our game:








Video clips are ready now


Coolsailors is a scalable Muti-Zone Online Game that combines RPG, FPS, and RTS elements.

Players choose a woody character, join one of the three nations: WM, LM, MM and battle each
other for control of this imperfect, dark, low-visibility virtual world.

Another "battle" game, well, players will have more other stuff to do than just "battle" each
other,such as building their own facilities, harvesting resources , trading items and etc.

This game world is divided into zones. Head-quarter zone and team-base zone are dedicated
to one nation. While resource zones, war zones and sports zones are shared with other nations.
Each team will have its own "Team Base" where they build their own facilities.

key words: Zone, Player and Event(plot?).

Here are some details about this game:

Looks interesting but the screenshots are extremly dark. I tried viewing the videos but got a codec error. Are they divx?

Sounds like a cool game... 2 things:
1. "---30 mins break between game playing:" your putting a limit on how long people can play for?
That sounds like a good reason not to buy the game.

2. The image above and the ones on your site are way to dark (can't really make them out)
and I can't get the videos to play (they seem to cause a problem with my PC)

nice, shots are a bit dark, but that's ok

as to the 30 minute thing, i think a lot of asian countries particularly are having to deal with overly excessive MMORPG players. So if you're selling to / coming from that market, then it is totally understandable (and smart too)

Nice shots, but I think you exported in the wrong PNG format -- the one that comes with Photoshop CS exports far too dark.

nice I like the underlighting graphic style, not too dark for my setup.

Thanks all, and sorry about the videos, i'll check them again, and disable it for now. ( it was made using Fraps video capture tool )

About dark images, it is the game style, very dark and very low-visibility (38-68 feets) game world.
Players may need carrying a flash light or lighted weapons all the time.

The 30-mins thing, we believe players need that break physically, and will do good for player, after
break they can play better than they do without for sure. (Josiah Wang is right, i learnt this from
Asian market )

wow sounds interessting.. though I think the 30 minute break idea isn't such a good one.. I've played lineage 2 wich was made in Korea (asia :P)..

In that game you'd only get a message that you've been playing for several hours and that you're advised to take a break..
I'd suggest going with a system like that.. I'd hate being thrown out of a game in the middle of an intense battle..
