I think the number of trees was the cause of it. The cameras draw distance was too small so hills and buildings appeared into view from nowhere. Talking was working for me. The aesthetic reminded me of elder scrolls 2. Are the maps randomly generated because everytime I started the game there was a different map? It is really impressive that you have managed to create a game from scratch because it had: random map generation, character controller, mouselook, AI, dialog, spell particles and many more that I probably missed.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Artur Hawkwing","author_uid":1035989,"time":"2017-08-02T05:15:11Z","epoch":1501650911,"modified":1501650911,"text":"Thanks!!! I'm very happy you seem to like it!\n\nThe maps are indeed randomly generated. However, since we entered this into the jam we were allowed to use a pre-existing code base, which is why we had that. I should also note that the generation algorithm, while procuding nice results, is expensive on the CPU and RAM, and I think it has caused some of the start-up errors people have been reporting.\n\nAlso, I have noticed the trees issue before, and that is actually part of the reason I shortened the range of vision. Yet Im sure there is a better way via LOD \/ poly count control","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Lamm","author_uid":1031016,"time":"2017-08-03T02:46:31Z","epoch":1501728391,"modified":1501728391,"text":"i have a mini issues but the game is great, you are a good team never give up, and keep make videogames, if my english is a kind of weird sorry about that ","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Artur Hawkwing","author_uid":1035989,"time":"2017-08-03T15:38:02Z","epoch":1501774682,"modified":1501774682,"text":"Thank you very much @lamm!

Could be polished in a few sectors, but overall I liked it. There was a little bit of lag, I think because of the randomly generated terrain?
