[p][/p][p]What got you started in game development?[/p][p]What got me into making games is that I can mix several of my passions into one project (especially music, which is my favorite).[/p][p]How did you find Fusion?[/p][p]I discovered Fusion (or The Games Factory at the time) pretty much by chance while walking around a shopping mall. I didn’t even know that this kind of software existed, so I didn’t hesitate to buy it.[/p][p]What inspirations drove you in the creation of Demon Quest?[/p][p]I think my inspirations come from great classics like Metroid, Zelda, and Resident Evil. With Demon Quest, I wanted to try to combine what I love about each of these games.[/p][p][/p][p]What is one thing you love about Fusion?[/p][p]What I’ve always loved about Fusion is how easy and fast it is to bring ideas to life. Since coding isn’t really my favorite, it’s the perfect software for me.[/p][p]What is one thing you would change about Fusion?[/p][p]What I’d like to see in Fusion is a simpler way to work with sound (a mixing table and built-in effects would be awesome). It’s also a shame there’s no console export. Maybe in Fusion 3? ;) (Author here, I let him know that we do infact have a console export)[/p][p]What will you work on next?[/p][p]For now, I don’t really know yet. Demon Quest has already taken me a lot of time (5 years), and it’s not finished yet. So maybe a smaller project with an original concept next.[/p][p][/p][p]Get it on Steam now!: [/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]Developed and Published by: Pattern Games[/p]

Deep customization, branching paths, and tons of unlockables offer endless replayability![/p][p][/p][p]The best part of the game is the deep level of customization you do on the fly during combat making sure you pick the right upgrades to fit your intended playstyle and defeat the seemingly endless enemies thrown at you, to say nothing of the difficult bosses you face as well. To give you a taste of the game in the video above I played through the tutorial mode up to the first boss where I jussssttt couldn't defeat em![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]What's New in the Sequel?[/h3]

[p]A new Fusion3 Blog entry is live! https://www.patreon.com/posts/fusion3-blog-141766803[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Today’s blog post is about an architectural change we made during Fusion 3’s development.  It is a bit more technical and "under-the-hood" than usual, but we thought the topic might be interesting for our readers. [/p][p]In essence, it is about certain assumptions we had during development that turned out to be detrimental to the stability and future development of Fusion 3 and how we are solving it. [/p]
