|
 |
| Quote: | | Wayward Tide is a co-operative top-down action adventure game, taking place in a treacherous archipelago during the golden age of piracy. You and up to three other friends will find yourselves in a bustling sea-town, ready to swash-buckle your way through five mysterious islands, of ever increasing riches (and difficulty). You’ll battle dangerous enemies, hoard treasures, solve fiendish puzzles and avoid deadly traps… or maybe you’ll backstab your crew to get ahead! |
 Spoiler: | |
| Quote: | One of the key features we’re focusing on is the nature of the puzzles and traps, which will introduce a competitive edge to the co-op experience. For instance, you and your friends might find yourself dealing with a pressure plate trap.
The solution would involve everyone stepping off at the same time. Stepping off too early will unhelpfully drop a boulder on your friend. We’re currently planning on a way to resurrect co-op players from time to time, so it’s not game over if a few of you get killed along the way.
Be warned, however – Death comes at a price. If all players die, they’ll find themselves washed up at the starting town. The treasure will carry over, allowing them to upgrade in the town stores, but the next attempt at the island will be a different experience thanks to the randomly generated levels. |
Planned Features:
- 1-4 Player Support (Local and Online Co-op)
- Competitive Co-op Experience
- Randomly Generated levels
- Five distinct islands with their own theme, enemies, puzzles and traps
- Modding Support

It's Chucklefish, they never finish what they started first. Starbound has been in alpha/beta for nearly a goddamn YEAR and they've only just now announced that they "see 1.0 on the horizon" -- it was the same for Terraria too, that was in beta (or at least "not feature complete") for an ungodly amount of time.
Well I've learned my lesson, that's for sure. This looks fun but I'm going nowhere near it until it's completely finished.

Yeah but even if Starbound isnt finished, I dont see what's wrong in creating a new team for a new game.
There are only so many people that can work on a small game without walking on each others head.

I'd understand if Chucklefish were a large studio but they're not.. and so my opinion still stands; starting work on an entirely new game whilst the existing one isn't finished is ridiculous.

The game really does fun, honest! I hope it works out for the best, I'm just not going to get involved until it's completely finished
