Age of the Beast
Right, Senile Team's new game will be a swords & sorcery game called Age of the Beast. It's still in an early developmental phase, but we can already tell you this:
- It will be based on an adaptation of the BoR engine
- It will not be backwards compatible with BoR
- It will support running, and many other new moves
- It will support animated backgrounds
- It will support 16-bit, 44100 KHz stereo sound (MP3)
- It will feature an all-new, original soundtrack
- It will feature all-new, original characters
- It will support 4 players
So what we can't tell you is when it'll be finished, but it will take a long time. The good news is that it will be worth the wait.
Goals
With Beats of Rage (BOR) Senile Team created one of the best, perhaps the best, homebrew game. Now we've taken on an even bigger challenge; making the best swords & sorcery game we can!
Only time will tell if we can manage to implement all our ideas. But whatever the exact outcome, it will be pretty cool indeed.
Platforms
BOR was released for pc, Dreamcast, PS2, xbox, and GP32 (and is currently being ported to Linux). We're aiming for a similarly universal release for Age of the Beast. When the game is close to release we will contact the porters, so everyone can enjoy Age of the Beast :)
