Evolution of Among Ripples 2 Prototypes




Hello everyone! To celebrate that we've been working on Among Ripples 2 for around a year (in secret) I want to share this short clip of the three prototypes we've made since April, 2018.

As you can see the first prototype resembled the first game with "2d side-scroll view" but having tried it we felt it was limiting and went for a more classic tycoon approach with a 3d world. In the second prototype we achieved this and in the third we refined the game concepts and really tried to emulate the watercolour look we've always pushed for.

As usual, feel free to join the discussion on our Discord: https://discordapp.com/invite/ecs


Have a nice weekend!

Latest Update on Among Ripples 2

Hello everyone,

Here's some news about the game. We're still in talks with several publishers and hope to sign something soon, this would bring a lot of stability the team has never seen before and we can develop the game in (relative) peace and quiet.


We did a mockup for the interface, it's a bit crowded, it will change a lot.






The base game would take place in Sweden but we wan't to add more campaigns set in other parts of the world. Here's new concept art for the Hebrides in Scotland.




Previously we also did concept art for the Red Sea and China.





We have begun early development on the proper game, so all of the actual content looks very unfinished. Within 8-10 months we hope to be at the same level as the prototype. Usually you build prototypes with duct tape and glue and it's not something you want to build a complete game on, so you basically start from scratch and use what you've learned.

Lastly I want to show you the life of pikes. the team added a first person camera to the animals before we wrapped up development on the prototype, you can't control it, but it looks very interesting imo!



We will be posting more of these on our social media, won't spam you here. And currently we have a poll on Twitter for which animal to do next.


The best place to follow development and interact with us right now is Discord, feel free to join.

News - Possible Publisher In 2019





Hello everyone! We're back from Game Developer's Conference in San Francisco, USA. Things are looking good for us, it's very likely we will sign with a publisher within the year, hopefully this summer.

We also wanted to share this mockup render of how we want the final game to look like, what do you think? Also, if you missed our latest trailer here it is again!
