Development Blog for Project Vega

What is Project Vega?

Project Vega is the codename for a brand new first-person shooter being developed by several members of this site. The engine is being developed from scratch and is using DirectX 9 for the renderer.

Why are we making it?

Basically, it comes down to the fact that modern games aren’t cutting it for us. It seems these days that the majority of shooters coming out are photorealistic, war-based, and drab looking. How boring! We here don’t buy into the whole “realism = good” idea. Doing your taxes sure is realistic, but it’s not a lot of fun! We want to make something that’s vibrant and colorful and a lot of fun to play, even if it doesn’t necessarily play by the rules of reality! After all, no one complains that Tetris is unrealistic, right?

So, when it comes to modern games, we want to do something different – something fresh and new. After all, the last thing the world needs is yet another photorealistic warfare-based shooter.
