Looks very stunning. Good Job so far.

I read about it last week in the German Gamestar Magazine and they mentioned Ogre too. Sadly they think Ogre is Ogre and Ogre is an "old" Engine. No new Name... sadly they can't decide the versionnumbers ;-).

Just want to add a "wow" as well as a "thank you" for putting so much polish into this game!

It can be so depressing sometimes, you'll play some new game on the xbox 360 or whatever, and you can just see how little polish was spared in it's production... then you see a game with art like this and its a breath of fresh air - great work!

This looks fantastic. Defiantly up there as one of the nicest looking games I've seen developed in Ogre.

Today we released the 2nd Teaser-Trailer for BouT. Checking youtube we noticed that someone has made a subbed version of the first trailer and the punchline of the 2nd is pretty much independed of the narrator-text. So I thought I'd update the thread with some youtube links...

1st Trailer (subbed): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3DPQHQw3NQ
2nd Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_W3RoQXk_Y

Enoy! ;)

(hopefully Blizz isn't banning our wow acounts for that... :P)

Hehe, I saw your trailer one day before at gamestar.de. :D
Very nice! Maybe the talkers voice could be a bit louder.
How did you call this purple thing in the game?
:wink:

The "purple thing" is called "Vieh" in the German version of the game. The UK Localisation probably will translate it "critter", iirc.

Would like to have a "Vieh" himself: Raketenmann

Amazing.

Not only because of the extremely high quality visuals, but even more so that this is done by such a small team!
An inspiration that is bound to motivate me for some time to come.
I like adventure games aswell, and if the story and 'done-ness' is close to the quality of these screenshots and trailers, I definitly want to BUY it.

So please, PLEASE don't release this when it isn't done yet like so many games these days.

Our intern-boy is frapsing right now, so I guess we'll have some high quality video footage to show off for everyone interested in how the final product looks like. A Playable demo is incoming too... for now only available in german language though.
