Hi, just saw this game, have a few questions if you don't mind:
1. xbox controller support?
2. average game length?
3. any replay value? (e.g. randomisation, new game + etc)
4. are there any timed gameplay elements (i.e. you have 3 minutes to complete xyz), or can you take your time with it?
5. max resolution it runs at? windowed mode?
Thanks,
D
Hi,
1. not yet, planning to.
2. endless game, like in Monopoly. In the add-on we'll provide in a couple of months, there will be an ending to the game when you manage to bankrupt all your NPC opponents.
3. Randomisation is used in every aspect of the game (missions, tycoon elements, game props & pop ups, port life, NPC achievements, etc). You never get to play the same game again.
4. Yes. You have x minutes to complete a tourist mission.
5. Gets max resolution from windows settings. Has a windowed mode too.
Hope this helps! Cheers.
Without anything happening on the island it's not interesting to me. Dead Island without Zombies would be as boring as this.
Hello folks, I recorded a second video, which can be found here:

Thanks!
Hey folks, I just wanted to share my review and gameplay session:

A link to the demo is included in the review, for your convenience.
Thanks!
Damn, you need to pay for the good life :P
Where is the demo? The youtube video mentions it, but I can't find it. I'm really interested in this, but I need to know its going to run ok on my system first.
I'd like to see a demo as well, or at least a gameplay video. For guys like me, $20 is an investment.
Fair enough, we uploaded an older gameplay video, hope it gives an idea..
Thank you for the nice words, Carlos!
We worked on this for 2,5 years, in part-time mode though as we're both parents and also have our day-jobs. Having people like you saying nice words about the game, makes this effort really worthwhile!
