The Dark Triad: Dragon’s Death now live on Kickstarter

Autoloot Games Ltd. launches its Kickstarter campaing to fund its 3D-isometric, turn-based, story-driven CRPG

Barcelona, Spain. (March 20, 2013) – Autoloot Games Ltd., a new video game company formed by former employees of Ubisoft, Gameloft and Funcom,  launches a Kickstarter campaign in order to fund its upcoming 3D-isometric, turn-based, story-driven RPG.

The Dark Triad: Dragon’s Death has been in development for 11 months, and  Autoloot is asking $100K  to complete the latest 10 months of development.

KICKSTARTER link:

The following excerpts can be read on their Kickstarter page:

“We’ve surpassed a risky stage of development where  we didn’t have any tools to create game content.  Now, we already have our own proprietary tools and can focus our efforts on implementing and tuning up the combat systems, dialogues,  environments, stats and skills, character advancement and equipment, etc. We are also implementing dynamic and shadow lightning. “

We ask you, dear backer, for the minimum amount necessary to sustain ourselves over the next 10 months as we complete the development of the game. Some of us of have been working for many years in the mainstream games industry, and, as gamers first and foremost, we don't like what we see and the direction the games industry is taking. It completely prevents developers from using any spark of creativity and numbs the passion that has always been the driving force that made us, in the first place, wish to become professional game makers. We don't like copycat social games aimed to steal money from the players, where gameplay is at a distant second or even third place, and we don't like the abusive practices of some big companies towards their employees . This (and many other reasons) is what made us decide to join efforts and go indie.” 

“We want you,  our supporters and fans, to be our most critical, but at the same time loyal, investors. We are community guys and we consider each opinion important. We will listen and try to answer all of the questions you might have, and we also would like to share our views with you. We believe this synergy is very healthy, allows us to have a broader view of the development process itself, and helps us challenge ourselves to deliver the best possible games for you to enjoy.”

“If we can make it with your help, take for granted that you'll have an steady income of good CRPGs to enjoy during the time to come. Let us tell you that we'll be losing a lot of sleep over achieving this goal. This is both a personal and collective promise from Autoloot Games.”
