Dev Post 53- Racing towards one-shot beta v0.4

We are almost ready to send out version 0.4 of our #beta and we’re looking into #kickstarter campaigns! We’re not going live just yet, as preparations are still needed. We are also thinking about switching up our social media strategy but we need some input from you all. What would you like to see from us on social media?

Dev Post 52 – Campaign and combat simulations

We’ve started our first Æther Void campaign on Victoria, our #steampunk world. After the first session the party (consisting of a Vampire, Werewolf, Clock, and Human) is now en route to Nouveau Paris.

We are also running a lot of combat simulations to see how different enemies and NPC’s compare to each other. About twenty peasants have died so far, poor sods.

Dev Post 51 – Art, art, and more art

Everyone is busy working on their respective tasks but one thing that drew a lot of ‘ooohs’ and ‘aaahhs’ was the art being drawn. We introduce you to some sketches of our newest addition to the team: Sigrid “Sietje” Stoeltje. Together with our OG artist they’ve drawn, discussed, and sketched many a thing! Check Sigrid’s art on instagram and don’t worry, we’ll be posting more of her in the future!

Calm day of working on the Victorian Starter Adventure, with a nice set of eldritch horrors and religious fanatics on our grotesque train! We’re also working on some external commisions for art to expand our repertoire of stunning scenery and thrilling characters!

Dev Post 48 Art, prequel adventures, and art

This week we’ve been working on our starter adventures (all of them part of the same overarching story) and searching for people to help our awesome artist make our corebook even more epic! Also a quick question, what technologies and cybernetics would you like to see in our Sci-Fi world?

Dev Post 47 – Collecting feedback

As we’re sifting through tons of newly received feedback (huge thank you to all who provided us with theirs), we’ve also come to a point of debate. Our combat system is called the Æquilibrium Game System and we’re divided as to abbreviate it to TÆGS (The Æquilibrium Game System) or to (the) ÆGS. If abbreviated to ÆGS, we’d like to start referring to it as the ÆGiS, but we’re curious as to what you guys think. Let us know which you prefer!

While Wietse and Mendel are at UK Games Expo (and bragging about meeting all you awesome people), the team at home has been working on the changelog and Sleeping Dragon’s various locations (plenty of interesting story hooks!).

Dev Post 45 – Preparing for Games Expo UK

With less than a week to go before we depart for Games Expo UK, all hands are on deck to process as much feedback as possible so that we can show the new and improved version 0.3 of our oneshot beta. We’re looking forward to playtest our game with tabletop enthusiasts while we’re there.

Are we going to see you there? Let us know, and drop by!

Dev Post 44 – Research through playing

Today we’ve been ‘researching’ the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying Game. We were suprised to discover a handful of similarities between Warhammer and Aether Void, though this solidified our belief in our own Aequilibruim game system. Our session ended with an imminent skaven attack. Sigmar guide us!
