A World in the Making

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

The development of the Eco-Rangers MMOG is now at its turning point: that crucial point where you start seeing the real stuff come to life.

We have just developed the (almost) final form of the game’s Avatars, core Vehicles and brought to life the first game environment, the magical Ocean Blue. Also, the Alpha versions of 3 more minigames are ready, for a total of 5.

The combination of painted backdrops (for the game spaces) and 3D models (avatars and vehicles) so far has brought very interesting results and a rich and colorful look & feel. We’re especially proud of the avatars, which maintain a core of originality and uniqueness in a market full of manga or WOW clones.

All the mini-games so far, also, are fully integrated with the virtual world game play and look & feel. They belong to the world, a great source of joy for a Development Team which has worked hard to preserve this balance.

See for yourself… and get ready to see more soon.

Here is few brand new environment shots from Eco-Rangers to give you an idea of the look & feel of the game we are building. It looks better and better every day. Thanks goes out for the hard working Eco-rangers team!

"My god, its a polar bear..."

"My god, it's a polar bear..."

We just launched our second teaser game: Jet Pack Rescue. The teaser games are aimed at building interest around Eco-Rangers online, a massively multiplayer online game targeted to launch in in the US in August.

The second game is set in the Arctic, where the player’s mission is to save polar bears from melting icebergs. Compared to the first teaser game, Deep Sea Xpedition, this second game has more refined game play and graphics.

You can try both games at: www.eco-rangers.com. Again, thanks goes to the whole team for burning the midnight oil to keep up with tight deadlines:))

In game graphics from Deep Sea Xploration

In game graphics from Deep Sea Xpedition

Just minutes ago we launched the first teaser game for Eco-Rangers online. The game is called ‘Deep Sea Xpedition’.

Deep Sea Xpedition is the first public sample of the Eco-Rangers online (an MOG we’re building) indicating the direction we’ve taken in terms of visual style and game play. Even though single player, DSX gives you a good idea of what Flash 10 can do in terms of graphic performance.

You can try Deep Sea Xpedition at: www.eco-rangers.com. Congratulations team, you rock!
