Rituals of the old

Greetings Gamejolt!


Can you believe it?

I just learned about this site a few minutes ago and I was like “OMG, I have to add our project here - there are so many cool people here. “

I’m currently not sure what would be the best web platform to publish my thoughts and news about our game project. We already have a devblog on tumblr, but I have really mixed feelings about that site.

If this thing catches on like a wildfire (nobody gives us any comments on tumblr, boo!) I might end up moving us here.

But in the mean time you can find my almost weekly ramblings on tumblr: http://starandserpent.tumblr.com/

The project introduction is a bit short at the moment and our web page (https://www.ritualsoftheold.com/) is a bit confusing (in my opinion). I’m currently in the process of trying to find the best and shortest way possible to describe “what Rituals of the old is”, but the actual game development work is taking a lot of my time, so… I’ll try to find a couple of days in the near future to sit down and jot it all down.

Hello!

I’m Poika Pilvimaa, better know by my nick Pilvinen. I’m the founder and project leader of our small indie game studio Star and serpent. We’re currently working on our first game Rituals of the old which is going to be a multiplayer voxel/bloxel/low poly+freestyle sandbox game where you build stuff, live your life, experience adventure, RPG elements and explore the mysteries.

Rituals of the old has extensive groundwork laid out during the last 4 years and currently the game has been in active development for 6 months. We work on the game basically on a zero budget at the moment and on our spare time, but we aim for an eventual commercial release. The first early access version is scheduled around 2019-2020. But I can’t make any promises about the timetable. At this point it’s just an educated guess - it takes as long as it takes.

If you’re interested in Rituals of the old I would love to answer all of your questions - and if I don’t know the answer to something I’ll make stuff up and lie :-)

Please ask me your questions either here on Gamejolt, on our forums (https://www.ritualsoftheold.com/community/) or you can join our Discord text chat (https://discord.gg/jCQW4uC) and try to catch us there (most of us live in the GMT+2 time zone).

Cheers!
