This is just an update on what I am up to right now, and the state of Disturbed and Disturbed 2.
Disturbed
So a couple weeks back I tried to get a DLC for trading cards lined up for Disturbed, and it got approved - but after a chat with steam, it would be an inefficient way of getting trading cards to those interested (charging a $1 or so for the DLC). This being said, I'm not sure trading cards will ever be available for Disturbed, unless there is 3 or so DLC for it that people would buy, then trading cards would be a more realistic feature to add.
So, I'm not sure if I should just leave Disturbed alone and work on a 2nd one (which I will talk about below), or if I should work on small individual adventures and release them as DLC? I have created a new forum for game design. Yes, I can read the reviews for the game, and I have been doing that. This can be an opportunity for people to be more involved.
Disturbed 2
I have been spending a lot of time developing a storyboard and the direction for this game. Right away, this project is more ambitious with a clear story, characters, and minor combat system. Deaths are more logical consequences, and the game will be more focused on a story rather than living through the metaphor Disturbed was based on. The art style will be similar however, and if you are looking for death, you will surely find it haha. In short, it will be a much longer and involved game. (At least, that is the idea)
More details will be on the Distubed forum under game design.
iBlackPen
For those who know me a bit, I am attending college and am hoping to wrap up a web design major hopefully within the next year. It has been keeping me busy, but I'm trying to devote a fair amount of time to the development of Disturbed. Also, the iblackpen website has plans for revisions.
For those of you celebrating Thanksgiving, be safe while traveling/etc.ːwarhorseː
Thanks for reading.
