[GrayFace]

It's last and final images from project. Next release will be demo.

These look fantastic!

[MMXAlamar]

Damn, this looks so much better than MMX loL!

[nublard]

These graphics do look fantastic.

Really looking forward to this and MM10 both.

But I must confess, graphics was never the reason M&M was great. Its the gameplay I think most of us are looking for.

[DeTHiCa]

The game was planned in a modified setting of Might & Magic 6-8. Events occur prior to the collision of two blades which led to the death of the planet. Action game should have happened on the island Vori . We have revised the story suggesting that the climate has changed on the island after Kilgor cleared so-called "the Sword of Frost" ( events Heroes Chronicles).

During the development was done:
- Graphics engine
- The level editor , dialogues and objects. Loading the remaining data derived from tables.
- Skeletal animation
- Batch Management - moving , melee, ranged , interaction with NPC, the choice of objects in the scene (eg opening boxes ) , stealth mode
- game system - slightly modified system of Might & Magic 6th and 7th part
- Many different art : textures, models , characters, sounds and music
- A huge number of 2D images of items for game inventory
- Interface : main window , statistics , inventory, dialog windows, alchemy, map of the area , the start menu
- 7 open locations
- 5 dungeons
- A few quests
- About 20 spells (almost everything is in demo version)

Nice to see this project is still alive and to play demo.

However I have one questin - how to skip character turn during combat?

It's dead, Jim.

However I have one questin - how to skip character turn during combat?

No way, I suppose.

[Avonu]

Who's Jim?

And just one Resurrection spell and it should be allright.

'P' key
Also when you see "running man" pic, it's mean you can move in Turn Based combat.


Aaaand, well, project is dead... actually.

[tolich]

Who's Jim?

Jim is the guy who receives bad news.

Thanks
As for second part, I figured it out - demo and control is very easy to play, if you ever played MM6-8, so language is not a big barrier.

so, is it dead and this demo release was the last gasp or is it alive?

clarification pl0x

[orzie]

Too bad to know it's dead.
Perhaps releasing the source code could help the project to see the logical end sometimes.
Looks much more promising than classic mm9 and MMT, although projects like MMT should be also top rated.

[DeTHiCa]

Damn it guys, I was so looking forward to this. Oh well, at least we have a demo of what could have been... And the upcoming MMX.
