Hello Friends!
So I am working now on a big project and I want to share some things with you guys.
But before that some other words I have to mention...
First ...this post is written here on Hive ...because in part I do not like or support the current way steemit blog is heading .
I actually stopped for a while now writing my small articles...but that was not the whole story.
I had a long year ...and that is the second part . Well I can say 2020 it is a long year for many people.
For the moment I chose not to tell my stories for this year about what I experienced so far...I will chose a time close to the end of the year or 2021 ...hoping that maybe it will be a better year for us.
And with all that out of the way lets start this story about my game!
So the game will be called Story Of Blood and I made a small video talking about it here:
I started in the year f 2012 a small story witch in time it became a book...Since that time life happened and after some years I came back to this book called
Story Of Blood
As the years passed I wrote and ....deleted and wrote again few lines until I reached a discussion with my friends about it....well they loved a lot the story but that was not the point of it....somehow I realized the this idea...this story remained in my head ...all these years...it was with me in my baddest moments...and even the time I was happy.
That meant the story had weight and I decided to do more....I decided to make a game out of it.
Now ...there are some downsides to this:
- I am from Romania witch means I cannot use mostly anything from other countries to fund my project.(I will explain more )
2.I do not know how to program yet.
3.The book is not published yet.
OK so ...I tried to use -Kickstarted, Indiegogo, Gofundme, Razzo, Causevox etc.... well most of them work with some countries outside US , but not Romania. So right from the start I cannot use these platforms.
After many, many days I finally came back to Patreon and started a small page witch is still in progress...
https://www.patreon.com/cynetyc
So basically I will try to fund this project using Patreon. Like this I made a small page on Patreon trying to raise some funds for the game and publishing of the first book.
The page is still in progress and I try to implement some rewards for different tiers....here I do not have experience I will try to look online maybe I find some suggestions. about this.
The first game will be inspired by the book and I want to use it to try to attract a game publisher ....somehow I hope to show the idea, the concept of the game and of course the book and future books (story is already there) to the publisher.
It will be a long road but I want to make it ...as much as I can...and even with all of these roadblocks that I am facing...as a foreigner I still believe ....that I can tell my story to all of you...no matter the country no matter the person...no matter the age.. stories are stories we as humans we live and breathe stories.
I started to learn how to make a game in Unreal Engine 4 and of course I am thinking to English proof my book.
Well I believe that I can write good in English ....but let us be honest here Romanian is my first language so of course I have to check and double check my book for any errors in English.
I already wrote a part of the book in English and send it to my editor in Romania...he was surprised and we laughed a lot because he was expecting a book in Romanian...I told him everything about my project.
And this is short presentation of the game:
I will post updates about the game on Patreon first and them of course I will post here and on Youtube as well.
