DreamGames and Titas
by Erik Madison · 03/26/2007 (3:54 pm) · 4 comments
As many of you know, the 'kits' will no longer be available after April 6th. I'd like to make a last call for those of you considering getting one (especially Titas!).
First off, I'm very pleased to say I've been asked to officially join DreamGames. This gives me lots of incentive to work even harder and faster on Titas, giving you a much better product. One of the first milestones is a restructuring of the Titas codebase, to get you a simplified and working base to begin with, much the same as Gryphon offers now.
Second, I'd like to explain a little about future development on Titas. We're getting noticed more and more, and as such, our name is being mentioned many times in the same breath as other major players in our 'little' industry. So...
The Titas team has been given 2 small projects to begin with. These are basically complete games, and have an excellent likelihood of being picked up and sold through commercial channels. Even better, the projects are simply further progressions of the Titas vision. Those who jump in and purchase now, will have full access to these projects as they develop, including the source! If you have the talent, take it a step further and join the team as a coder, artist, tester, or documentation specialist! You will gain priceless insight into TGEA development strategies. You'll fairly quickly make back your investment, and probably more as well. Or, just buy into the product as an owner and watch things happen. The Titas team is already beginning to grow, and will continue to do so. Things will only get better and faster from now on.
After all this, another minor project or two may appear, or we may just continue with the 'main' project. At some point, the primary Titas project will be closed source (except to those who've joined the team), but all other owners will continue to receive core updates for as long as possible.
Ashtara has made a special offering for those who don't yet own TGEA. Buy before the deadline, and your place in history will be reserved until you have the time and means to meet the pre-requisites. Great things are planned for the road to completion, and only owners will have any input/output on what the trip is like.

I'm buying it in 3 days, just waiting for a check to clear. I'm really exited about getting to start development on our MMO. We have been making models and such for a while, I'm anxious to put them to use.
