TRI takes a nap

Tri sleeps a while

Hey Rat fans and TRIer,

after so many months of developing and prototyping we unfortunately have to let our little TRI take a longer nap. The reason is quite simple: money. The purses need to get refilled, which means we do some contract work for now. We are very sorry for this delay, and have to confess that we were always a bit naive about the release date. TRI was growing, but too much into a direction we couldn't handle anymore. This also means that we will adjust the design and scope of the game to be a better fit for a two-headed team.

But we will continue working on TRI - by the beginning of next year!

And you will hear from us soon enough. There is still the voting going on for the Ludum Dare #24; the Indie Buskers will be back with special guests for a second jam; and Friedrich is going to host the Mini Ludum Dare #37 at the end of September. TRI may be asleep now, but the Rat King isn't!

Stay tuned!

Update your TRI now to version 0.1.6

Tri_eyebugsCrawling

If you got TRI from Desura - download the new version with your Desura client. Or did you purchase it directly from our website? Just re-download the game via the link at the bottom of your receipt. (Send us a message in case of problems with the download.)

What did change in version 0.1.6 ?

First the sad part: your old savegames will be useless. We rewrote the save format, which was neccessary because of added functionality. The rest is good news:

  • performance improvements (occlusion culling, normal maps size)
  • hardware cursor implemented
  • saving issues on Mac fixed
  • dragging (crates and crystals) improved
  • climbing works better on chamfered edges
  • added option "Camera smoothness", makes camera rotation less direct and choppy
  • online version check
  • new shader for the TRIs - added glow to important objects
  • We also added some bugs ;) EYEBUGS walking around
  • FPS counter for testing performance, activate it with the F10 key
  • a small section of the tutorial level was changed (many people had problems there)
  • fixed (hopefully) the problem with quicksave/load resulting in gray screens

What are our next steps?

  • At the moment Jana is changing the whole look of the textures to a more individual and hand-painted style.
  • Moreover, we finished the story. This means rooms, atmosphere and motivation will finally make more sense.
  • Bug fixes and tweaks, of course.
  • Perhaps more levels.

Still unsure if you should buy TRI? Just try our demo. Download it directly from us.
