Agency of Fear - Making Of + What is next?

  Agency of Fear is Futuresoft's biggest project since it was founded in 2020. Unreal Engine was a new engine for us and we learned it throughout the development of Agency of Fear, and we are working on many other Unreal Engine 4/5 projects, but as usual, we're not sure all of them will release, some are concrete ideas and others are simple prototypes. Normally, during a game's development, each thing you add takes time and it isn't easy, but we would like to say a couple of things. The easiest thing to develop in Agency of Fear was the map , but it took 80% of the whole game's development. Good maps, bad maps, removed parts, added parts, concepts, ideas, etc. It took the most time as for maybe every videogame ever with multiple maps. So in conclusion, the maps weren't hard to make, but it took very long, considering we didn't want a short game. The hardest thing to develop in Agency of Fear is related to scripting, and it was the save system , there were

Agency of Fear is delayed

 I know you guys waited 2 years for Agency of Fear and probably expected to play it yesterday. Unfortunately, we are delaying the release until August 30th. We are dealing with some packaging issues, but we promise we will fix this until August 30th. https://futuresoft.itch.io/agency-of-fear

New batch game announcement

 For our 3rd anniversary on December 27, we will be releasing a text-adventure game, to honor that we started with text-adventure games. We will not reveal any information regarding the game, but it is not Survivor or Savage Blast. It's something new, but extremely similar. It's a completely new and long lore that will be used in other upcoming games which might also have different games, but it's a sequel to all games with Ken Newman a.k.a the Survivor Universe.

Redoing Survivor 3D

 We've thought of this idea for a while. We're gonna be redoing Survivor 3D. To be clear, we're not gonna be making an ultra HD 4K remake of it in Unreal Engine 5. We're gonna stick to the same engine, but we'll add a lot more detail. This will include extra decals, extra props, voicelines, etc. See you soon.

Bad news regarding the fees of Unity

 For those of you who don't know, although I bet most game developers know, Unity will start charging each Unity developer 0.20$ for each install of one of their games. Basically, if someone installs Music Address, we would get charged 0.20$. That's why, to prevent any charges, we have unfortunately removed all our Unity games from itch.io. These include Far Sky Alpha 1, Far Sky Alpha 2, Music Address, and Man Fear: Vientor.  I'm glad Unreal is my main option for making games.

One Year of Agency of Fear 🎉

One year ago today, the demo for Agency of Fear was published. It's hard to believe that the game is a year old. To celebrate this, we're gonna give you a sneak peek of what you didn't know the game has. Agency of Fear has puzzles, like rotating circles on a wall to match a pattern and open a door. The chapters already reached the point where you realize the game is open world. The chapter we're currently working on is called Sewers. The game won't contain saving, all chapters will be unlocked at the start (unconfirmed). The start of the game has a cutscene with a mysterious man giving you a document related to your trip to the office.
