Team Aurora

Hey,

We have been working very hard to bring you something to look at. And today, we have done just that. The video below showcases a few cool features of the game, and essentially the building blocks for the rest of the game. I hope you enjoy it!

The title really does say it all! We at Team Aurora would like to welcome Chris and Markel, two extremely talented and awesome artists, to Team Aurora. Soon we will give you guys an awesome look at just how good these guys are! Stay tuned, and welcome aboard guys! I can say with confidence that with the addition of these two, we at Team Aurora will be able to deliver an even better indie-gaming experience to readers, players, and the rest of the game community!

Below is a brief narrative on why each of us at Team Aurora joined Team Aurora. We wanted to share our story or side of the coin with the rest of the community, friends, and fans alike! We hope you enjoy this post and feel free to comment or ask questions. We’ve got some exciting stuff coming up/out soon!

I bet none of us foresaw some of the difficulties and obstacles that lay before us, but I must congratulate my team for being focused and determined to defeat those obstacles. As a forewarning to others, I will outline some of those obstacles that we did not expect to run into below. Consider these when trying to make your game, and hopefully you can avoid some of these problems altogether through this article.
