JaqFrost: Unwritten has an update on its gameplay.

The game gets this write-up at RPS:

Unwritten: That Which Happened – Roxlou Games

Goal: $75,000
Now: $17,667
Days: 23

File this one under A in your filing cabinet. ‘A’ is for ‘Awesome’, or maybe ‘Adam’s Favourite Concepts’. Former Dishonored dev Joe Houston, who wrote these excellent and thought-provoking words for us, is now working on Unwritten:

Permanent decisions and infinite variety. Create a nomadic tribe and guide them across a randomly generated tundra to meet its God.

Marvellous. If I could convey that many exciting ideas in two short sentences, I’d be a happy man. I’m going to make the obligatory reference to King of Dragon Pass, which is one of the few games that is quite as determinedly about the act of making a story as Unwritten appears to be. Aside from the placeholder graphics currently atop the hexes, there’s not a lot about Unwritten that I don’t approve of.

JaqFrost: There's quite a number of people here who really like King of Dragon Pass if I'm not mistaken, so check it out. Pledge if you're inclined.
You've peaked my interest in kickstarter games again :) Also, I might play King of Dragon Pass which I got in my stash of Christmas loot which I haven't even played half yet there's so much (Thanks generous people of GOG).

I wonder if the writers are native level speakers of English, since there are grammatical issues in both the video and on the KS page. I'd like to back it because the environmental art looks beautiful and that hairmo creature looks like the Cheshire Cat.

Hm, good question, maybe I should offer to write for them. :3

I liked the look of this one, so I hope it makes it this time.

EDIT: Hm, their site doesn't actually list a dedicated writer.

Here is another: Cryamore, an action RPG that is along the lines of Zelda. Has an anime aesthetic, and looks promising in my opinion.

I sent the developer a PM and apparently it's the lead guy doing the writing. He said they'll have a team of ninja editors fixing up the issues before release. It does seem like they'll make their target this time around.

I'm sad to see that Unwritten seems to have pretty much stalled, though. =(
A great, extremely honest (and rambling) interview with Chris Taylor about GPG, Wildman, the game publishing industry, why he feels uneasy with people pledging for his Kickstarter and would rather they donated to good causes, and many other things.
