First screenshots from new strategy MMOG

(02.06.2007, 02:25:14) Call of the Kings - The Mirror Black The first screenshots are now available at the game site. After quite a few years the small independent game developer Gamalocus is finally getting ready to launch the beta of their online hybrid strategy and role-playing game, Call of the Kings - The Mirror Black.

“The game caters to both casual gamers with the tick based concept found in many browser strategy games. And at the same time it has the frontier battlefields where the players can spend hours fighting it out in strategy PvP. It runs in real-time, but the RTS element has been applied to armies, diplomacy, espionage and civilization improvement instead of the classic tactical troop management and resource gathering of the RTS genre,” says programmer Emanuel Greisen.


“We tried to bribe some cinematics experts from a well known company into leaving their well paid jobs,” says covert ops director Lars Nielsen, “but for some reason they didn’t like the homemade pan cakes that we could offer. So for now we’ll have to stick with our cheesy yet heartfelt motto: Gamalocus, Gameplay in focus.”

Background
The Danish Game Developer Gamalocus was founded in 2001 during the production of the graphical strategy browser game Call of the Warlords. The last three years a small team of no more than 5 dedicated geeks has been working hard to create this new strategy MMOG - a genre that has been left mostly unexplored due to the gargantuan and single-minded focus by the industry on the popular roleplaying MMOGs.

Call of the Kings is programmed in java using the 3D engine jmonkey. The game will be available for PC including the operating systems of Windows, Linux and Macintosh.
