Thanks Spank-a-phone, The trailer from 0:22 to 0:46 is all gameplay, although it's a very limited slice of it - it's only the movement and basic combat within a couple of levels, with none of the Boosters, Counters or Missiles, character progression, mission selection or story. As we get closer to completion, we'll get a second trailer out that shows off as much of this stuff as possible.
WOW! This looks like it could be lots opf fun!! Sorry to jump on the bandwaggon but if you could give some indication of when this may be released that would be great ;-)
Hey redribbon, we do have dynamic lighting on weapons fire, and some destructibility. Also, I promise there will be 87.3% more particles!
Oh hey, Meat Head - missed your comment. We're still aiming for a release sometime around October-December 2011. Yellow Peril - thanks for the kind words
Things are humming along. We've just put up some new screenshots, and Andrew James (our Art dude and all-around nice guy) has written a brief bit about the world we're trying to create. You can find it all here: http://www.uppercut-games.com/2011/09/creating-the-world-of-epoch/
Touch Arcade Preview And of course, we have to plug the great preview on this very site: http://toucharcade.com/2011/11/03/epoch-preview/
Woah! Keeping my eyes on this one! Already saw an early trailer quite some time ago and was already impressed!
That's right, Brrobitix! We sent out the press release last night (Australian time). Novemmber 10 it is
Dammit, I'm working an extra shift, then there's a CAMRA meeting in my local, and now i HAVE to stay up till 12:01 am Thursday morning. Great, thats just great, Thanks Uppercut, thanks a lot. Ruin my wednesday night sleep why don't you. Woohoo!
Hey Maniacfive, we didn't even know what CAMRA was until you mentioned it - seems like a worthy organisation to us! If it's any consolation ... you'll REALLY like the game when it comes out
Hey Ed, The game looks fantastic, can't wait to play it! Silly question: How do you pronouce the name of the game? "Epic" "Epp-awk", "Epp-awch", "Ee-pawk", "Ee-pawch?" Silly I know, but it's one of those words where everyone's going to say it differently. Also, now that it's been announced for release on Nov. 10, can you tell us what the price is going to be? Thanks so much, can't wait to try it out!!
Glad to hear you guys are looking forward to it! With how you pronounce it, turns out it depends on which version of English you speak. In Australia, we say "eepok", but American appears to be more like "epik". Either way, we're psyched that the game is almost out
It totally is, and I'm not just saying that because the meetings involve pubs, free food, and beer. More importantly, it's 00:01 on the 10th and EPOCH is only £3.99 for universal. Instabuy! I am really looking forward to this. I even held back on the beer and am forgoing completing the MW3 campaign for this
I'm about five missions in. On easy. And I am loving it. I've got lasers slicing towards me, I've got grenades being thrown. I've got bullets flying, and I'm leaping and sliding and dodging all over the place. And bringing the pain with my own grenades and rockets and bullets. It's frakkin great! And the story is already more fleshed out than Infinity blade
Update: Epoch has been released. New game thread is here: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=112866 This "upcoming" thread is now closed. ====
