Hello gaming friends,

in "Caribbean Treasure Hunt - A " you will command a crew of sailors and adventures and lead them to a glorious treasure. We are happy to show you how the crew will look like. Their appearance will differ depending on their rank and specialization.

To have enough variance we implemented a modular character system that divides the characters into their heads, torso and legs. The second image shows the torso of the middle character with the head and legs of the right character. Beside switching meshes to change their body-parts, our material also allows us to color parts of their cloth. With those two techniques, we hope to ensure that every crewmate in a play-through will look unique.

Have a great week
The Rubin-Games Team!

Hello gaming friends,

although we got silent in the last weeks we got a lot of work done. I published an article about our new random number generation solution for Treasure Hunt: https://www.rubin-games.de/random-number-generation/ on Tuesday.

We're looking forward to the next playtest on October the 21th to checkout some new gameplay-systems. Meanwhile, we're in the preparation phase for the Games Connection in Paris early November. Well, to summarize we have a big load of work. Nevertheless this week, we just started to raise the pace on the social media channels! :-)

We hope you'll like the blink behind the scenes and wish you all a great weekend.
Best wishes
Tim and Nils

Tim explains why and how a playtest lead to an overwork of the random number generation for Treasure Hunt - A Pirate's Tale.
