PAX West is over…



[h2]Gamers![/h2]

Do you know what's the worst part of any trip? Packing! It’s always very stressful and just irritating (argh, you always forget something…). So I decided to take a short break and write some words to you.

The last few days have been wonderful! PAX West, which was held in Seattle, has come to an end. The event turned out to be intense, and each day was full of many conversations with gamers.

What’s more - I had an opportunity to present the game to completely new players. I am very happy that I was able to exchange a few words with many of you and thank you so much for the feedback!



Let me tell you something more… Even if sometimes I feel tired of what I do, such events and each high five give me a powerful kick to act. An extra shot of motivation and the best proof that it’s all worth the effort. Seeing you smile when playing my game means the world to me. Thanks!

Meanwhile, I have to go back to packing (damn…), then catch my flight to Poland and I’ll be back home. Thanks to you I have some fresh ideas, so Flooded might surprise you again!

See ya!

I'm currently in Seattle, USA (at PAX West, of course), but couldn't leave you empty-handed! Throughout the event, you will be able to watch a special video of me playing Flooded!

Psst… I prepared some tips, fun facts, and interesting information, so just enjoy it!

See ya,
Tymek

Flooded is heading to China!



[h2]Gamers![/h2]

Although recently I've been focused mainly on PAX West and my trip to Seattle (can’t wait to meet you there), that's not the only good news I can share with you this week. The plane can wait because...

I can proudly announce that I have signed a deal with Surefire.Games - a company that will publish and promote Flooded in China! This means many new players will come to face a dangerous flood and other adversities. As if that was not enough, support for the Chinese language will be added to the game soon! 最后!

Surefire.Games is a team that worked on titles such as Cursed Treasure 2, Oaken, War Mongrels, and even on Lumencraft published by befriended Star Drifters. I am looking forward to the fruits of my cooperation with Surefire - I’m convinced that they will be fresh, juicy and very tasty.

Stay tuned for more info while I'm backpacking! I will have some surprises for you in the USA!

Progress abhors a vacuum



[h2]What’s up?[/h2]

Recently, I’ve been quite busy, which is related to the upcoming PAX West 2022 in Seattle. As I said a few weeks ago, I’ll be there with Flooded (more information and booth number HERE). Yet - sometimes you have to slow down and remind yourself that even small steps bring us closer to our goal. It’s called progress.

The simplest facilitators of it are: clear rules, a vision of the finish line, and a reward system. All three are in Flooded. How? Inspired by strategy games with which I fell in love as a kid - by adding the eras system.

[h2]Up the ladder...[/h2]

In Flooded, the gameplay can be divided into four stages - the Era of Mining (highlighting the extraction of ores and search for new deposits), the Era of Electricity (adding electricity production), the Era of Expansion (focusing on placing the buildings that can be placed on the ocean), and the New Era (allowing to complete remaining tasks).



Each of them increases the number of possibilities that we have and provides tasks to structure the level and help the player. For example - entering the Era of Electricity allows us to construct buildings related to... Yes, you guessed - electricity.

[h2]Closer to the end[/h2]

As I mentioned, the main factor behind this shape of the game is the desire to engage the player. We all love when our efforts are rewarded (just remember the satisfaction of a D- at school)! What’s more, many games introduce intermediate points in larger missions - no one wants to keep players without gratification for too long, as it may negatively affect their enthusiasm.

Luckily, the genre and form of Flooded make it possible to weave such a system in a very natural way. While playing, we feel that we have a tangible influence on how the world is created, a world that seems to be heading towards a wet end.

Thanks for coming and see you soon!

Flooded is going to PAX WEST 2022!



[h2]Dear gamers! [/h2]

This year's PAX East in Boston was an amazing experience. For the first time, I could personally present to you Flooded on such a scale. We had some friendly talks, exchanged thoughts and I saw at least a piece of the United States.

Well, it’s not a surprise that the best adventures are worth repeating. Nathan Drake has already proven how difficult it is to break away from them. That’s why this year I will once again travel overseas - this time as a participant of PAX West 2022 in Seattle! 🎉

You will find me at: Indie Games Poland - booth: 811.

I’ll give you more information soon and I must admit that I am looking forward to seeing you live. See ya!
