Title: Limit Theory
Post by: Luis Dias on October 01, 2013, 05:59:38 am

So I find it amazing that no thread about Limit Theory has been brought up yet.

A one man show with a very successful kickstarter campaign and an extremely interesting approach on development, albeit not entirely original. The idea falls in the "procedural generation game design" trope, but I'd say the results so far have been nothing short of awesome.

I really like his approach and I'm extremely interested in the end result. Here's his latest development video (end of september):

I've been following this keenly. I'm bummed I missed the Kickstarter, but I'll definitely be grabbing a copy upon release.

This seems really awesome, I like how he is giving us updates every few weeks. Thanks for posting about this, LD.

Not the amazing update one should hope for at this point, but given how this is a modders forum, I think you all should really like this video.

I love how this all evolved from "There probably won't be any modding" to "Turns out, all the tools I need to make this game would make modding actually fun and workable, so look forward to that".

ahah you're so right. Well at least we know that's 100% moddable. And oh so easy at that, I'm quite fascinated by the easeness of this. It's like FSO Lua scripting on superhero pills.
