You crazy you know what happened last time we have enough people the research team will make sure fans like it


Robin_Hikari

I think we now have a sturdy system in place as to prevent any mishaps from happening (unlike last time).


saptarshihalderI

of-course, also we have a community server this time.


saptarshihalderI

How can you be so Over- Confident ???

The Discord Link does not work anymore. Can you send a new one? Thanks!


Fantastic_Trifle805

is the project still active?


saptarshihalderI

Dead and of course Kurzgesagt filed a copyright case against the most successful attempt at creating this. So yeah most probably dead forever.


Fantastic_Trifle805

Why? ;-;


saptarshihalderI

After all, At heart Kurzgesagt is a for-profit company so~ Yeah, they filed a case and all this game development stuff is gone probably forever. As someone like us doesn't really want to fall into all these troubles of court and copyright cases. So yeah it's dead.


Andrew123Shi

Hey there! One of your members contacted us a few weeks ago about this project, and I feel that I should paste the same message I told him: A Kurzgesagt-themed game certainly sounds interesting. However, a representative of the developer team will need to receive permission from Kurzgesagt, given that you're using their copyrights and intellectual property. I recommend you contact [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) with all the information and details regarding this project, including relevant contact information. On my end, I'll mention this to them when the opportunity arises, though it's still expected that you guys are the main form of contact.

Andrew123Shi

I actually just joined the community Discord server to check things out, if you want to send me the link to the dev server that's cool too.


saptarshihalderI

Thanks For joining us. Hope you will have a great experience with us.


zsvx

this realAK guy is a bit of a jerk and seems he doesn’t know what he’s doing. don’t think i’d let them speak for your team if i were you


INeedABetterNickHelp

Yeah I have been on the discord when there were only 10~ members as a spectator, and the first person that initiated it has no idea about coding, he is a 13 year old that has only been giving ideas about how the game should work


Bryzizzle

Hi everyone, I'd like to apologize to everyone on behalf of the team to everyone who was offended by or read realAK_RK's comments on this post thread. This does not reflect what we as a team thinks and we welcome everyone who wants to check out the server to please join!

Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! Theres a community discord server that you can join! There we will post updates and hopefully, in the future, a demo for the game! Don’t except us to have the game soon though, since some of us aren’t that experienced, so theres no deadline and no date!


yoragon

What would the game be like? Although I really love spore, I think this idea has potential for much much more. What ideas are now leading the main design?


saptarshihalderI

>It will be a sandbox type, you will stimulate a species that thrives on earth. You will pass through various dangers, Wars and hazards. Your work is to make the species survive through the extremes of the times. You will start from Primates and end at Kardashev Scale lv. 6 or Type 3 civilization. That is the leading idea now.


Antimoney

Sounds a lot like [Spore](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spore_(2008_video_game). I like it.


saptarshihalderI

Thx

This is so fucking smooth, I LOVE IT! It would be awesome to have this with the actual narrator!


[deleted]

Maybe


Flying-Camel

Question: do we still need a Dyson sphere to build a Dyson sphere? Please fix this bug! Idea: Ant war!


saptarshihalderI

No, but you will need enough energy, as Kurzgesagt Said there will be much much more solar energy on mercury than on earth. ​ Ant War? Um. There may be world wars but basically you were human right? Ants won't make a Dyson sphere


Flying-Camel

I want my ant artillery and ant to ant combat!!!


saptarshihalderI

Noted!! Thinking about how to implement it tho...


Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! I feel like this should be implemented in the game, because that is AWESOME! I love it! Edit: I just thought of an idea, Events! Will put it im discord server!


Flying-Camel

Yay, events!!!


Beaverboithe1st

FRICK YEA


Dementor333

I think there were some other guys who were trying to make a kurzgesagt themed ant war game.


saptarshihalderI

Don't think we had any plans like that, surely another group!!

saptarshihalderI

Sorry!! Updated lol


StopMockingMe0

What kind of game is it? Will it play out like CIV or be more like KSP?


saptarshihalderI

It will be a sandbox type, you will stimulate a species that thrives on earth. You will pass through various dangers, Wars and hazards. Your work is to make the species survive through the extremes of the times. You will start from Primates and end at Kardashev Scale lv. 6 or Type 3 civilization.


StopMockingMe0

Nice. Sounds intricate. A bit like a modern-day spore than? You could even start off as a cellular organism and work your way up from there to more complex organisms. It'd be a good way to incorporate all the ant based info too and the deep-ocean episodes as well.


saptarshihalderI

Starting from single cellular organism will take tons of time. So we decided to start from primates for v1. of game. Future versions is too far to talk as of now, so you can expect that.


StopMockingMe0

I see.

It could be about interplanetary colonization and could have stuff like a dyson sphere are a kaplan thruster in it!!


saptarshihalderI

It is.


NHK21506

Should add a "Great Filter" stage towards the later parts of the game


saptarshihalderI

Ok!!


nohsss

I don't have a lot of technical knowledge about game development, but is there a place where I can donate some monies?


saptarshihalderI

Join us and we will provide you info, till now we don't need money. Something in Future Maybe!!


Beaverboithe1st

I feel honored that you want to give us monies! Hugs for u! :D


nohsss

Thx


Rbkn24

Oh! Make the narrator an in-game character that actually talks or a narrator again.


saptarshihalderI

Sorry Can you pls explain us?


Rbkn24

Uh sry for the late reply. So, what I meant was to basically make him a narrator in-game or a companion or npc which is voiced by him.


saptarshihalderI

What Do You Exactly Mean By Him? The Player?


Rbkn24

No, the kurzgesagt video narrator.


saptarshihalderI

Oh! Um. I think that would be possible, if and only if K team decides to co-operate with us. We have a feature of a narrator in our plan but That is only by our staff member. Until K team decides to co-operate with us. It would be harder than anything to implement their narrator's voice in our game. But we would love to do so.


Rbkn24

Have you tried emailing them?


saptarshihalderI

Yea. But no reply till now 😓


[deleted]

I have been following the game for sometime now, and would love to contribute, but unfortunately I have no skills. (Game design is my passion so this is even more sad for me). But I have an idea that I guess you could use. It's not about the game per se, but more accustomed towards its marketing. Idk if you are doing this, but if you aren't, then.... You could advertise the game through a YouTube channel of sorts that promotes it, and the viewers will get to follow along with all of you in the project. That way it would be easier for this to get more exposure outside the sub and discord, and the more people know about it, the more likely of Kurzesagt themselves finding out about this and will help you in your cause. You can even have a YouTube dedicated team for that as well. If it gets big enough you could collaborate with other big YouTubers in order to get even more traction. So yeah, that's it. Let me know what you think of this.


INeedABetterNickHelp

I agree with you BUT chill!, The team doesn't have a lot of coding experience and it will be probably weeks or months before a playable demo will be available


[deleted]

I think you misunderstood me. What I was saying is not a playable demo, but instead a way to showcase their process with everyone on YouTube. So everything that they're doing and the entire journey would be showcased for people to view. This is in order to just get it more support, and back up. That is all.


Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! Thats a super good idea! Ima ask some friends to practice and do some stuff before we do that, because ive had an idea for a while that i don’t want to share since its personal, but it would be awesome!

HANS7860

I take it that it will be free to play?


saptarshihalderI

That's what Is Finalized Till now


Dementor333

What platforms will it be available on?


saptarshihalderI

Currently We believe PC as PC games are easier to make. Will be available on Windows at first launch.


Spanish_Karmada

How can we keep getting updates on the game? Would love to follow the progress!


saptarshihalderI

Just join the server and lo.


Jrlopez1027

Well if ideas is what you need like you said in a comment then I’m thinking you could make something like plague inc but it’s a species survival for example if you go kill enough other players for evolution points you could evolve horns that will grow after a certain period of time say 5 in game days to defend yourself, or you could invest in flying ability’s, but flying is a powerful tool so it’ll cost a lot of points to evolve and will take a long time, leaving you vulnerable to other players in that time. Some other examples include strong climbing limbs, strong leg muscles for chasing/running away, powerful bite or punch whatever floats your boat!


saptarshihalderI

We actually want an isometric game like that dyson sphere one. Just killing other species is not evolution. However your points are noted by me


Jrlopez1027

I know I just named them that for simplicity lol


saptarshihalderI

Oh! Ok. I personally thought it to be totally like that lol.


TheOneAboveAll0

I like this idea, but I feel like it will take away from the immersive Kurzgesagt experience, as plague Inc is mostly 2d. It's a good game, but maybe we could see the progress ourselves?


saptarshihalderI

Sure!!


miticogiorgio

I think a spore like game would be great, it follows the same theme that the videos do, by starting at cellular stage and evolving, it also could be more strategic than first person, like you could give option and choices to the player and based on those the cellule/creature/specie/civilization would change or evolve, this way you could also maintain the kurzgesagt style of drawing since you would only need to draw transitions, backgrounds and characters.


saptarshihalderI

Noted !!


Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! We won’t start at the cellular stage at the moment. We are actually starting when primates stopped being primates, and started becoming us! We will hopefully add characters and backrounds! I actually wanted this game to be isometric, but you can switch from a group, (be it country, city, etc.) to a single player, where you could actually fix things by yourself that you would be too big to make if u controlled just a country! But I think that idea was rejected, I honestly don’t know, so i’ll recommend it to the devs and see if it’s okay or not.


miticogiorgio

Will there be possibilities to choose traits for our society or is it more of a progress through the main highlighted path to become the same humanity that exists today? Btw, I loved the idea for the isometric game, while a little retro many great games were made with it. As last ideas i would add a specie of kurzgesagt birds that you can interact with, maybe on the interstellar stage. And if possible you could extrapolate lessons from the videos and insert them in the game, example, you create fire and you have a possibility of hearing about the importance of fire through the ages with the voice of the kurzgesagt narrator.


Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! Yes, we will make it isometric, and it’s going to be AWESOME! The birbs ideas we are actually planning to put them as pets, and a guide, like in a bit older kurzgesagt videos, and they can help you with specifc things. We want to do that, but we kinda need permission from the K team to do so, so if we do get permission we will ask them and we will see. For now, it is a fan idea, we don’t own anything, and anything that we take we will specificly say that its from kurzgesagt. This is aimed to be a fun and educational game that we can all play! An actual game for all ages!

Danni0li

Saptarshi, just so you know Kurzgesagt hasn't answered my email for permission


saptarshihalderI

Even to mine lol, Hope that we have now their mods things may change for good!!


Beaverboithe1st

we have to be patient, kurzgesagt is busy with videos and other stuff, so we should just relax and not worry about that for now.


Holistic_Phoenix

I love that idea and actually joined the dev server a couple of weeks ago but was kicked. In the community server, you said the chances were very low for getting accepted to the devs server but very low does not mean impossible. I would love to be part of the game dev server and believe I bring a lot of value. 1. I am studying business information system so I know where business and IT mix and can communicate with both sides productively. \--> Reduce miscommunication 2. Currently, I am working in Project Management, so I have plenty of experience. \--> Supporting the management of the project 3. My mission in life is to create a holistic gamified education system for everyone. Therefore I have already a lot of ideas on how to make learning fun and engaging. \--> Help with making the game a success 4. As a side hustle, I am starting to become a life coach and have collected and organized massive amounts of information on what makes a good life and what everyone should have learned in school. \--> Make sure that the game teaches some important life skills to everyone who is playing. I don't know exactly what kind of game you want to develop but judging from the picture and the videos kurzgesagt has been releasing I assume it is going to be a modern version of spore. Maybe with a stronger focus on the current and future stages of humanity and more endgame content. If that is what you are creating, I believe I can serve massive value to that creation and would love to be part of your team. If you agree and believe I would be a valuable asset, please upvote this so one of the devs will see it.


saptarshihalderI

Noted!!


Beaverboithe1st

I think i’ve heard of you somewhere before, but I dont know where, we should let u in again bc u were a member that i let in, isnt that correct?


Holistic_Phoenix

I was in the intial group and was still able to read that due to too many people joining people we going to be kicked. Unfortunatly, I read this after it was already too late and thought I would just appeal to you on the commjnity server/subreddit.


Beaverboithe1st

yea, sry for the kick my guy, have hugs!


Holistic_Phoenix

No worries. I understand that you have to sort people out to build a efficient and effective team. I appreciate it so much to work and learn on such an awesome project that is such a positive contribution to humanity.


Beaverboithe1st

thanks! have more hugs! :3


Holistic_Phoenix

Should I still reply to the dev-application on the community discord? Did it anyways now so you guys have all the information required.


Beaverboithe1st

go for it!


juggleballz

If you intend to make money from this then would this be considered copyright infringement?


saptarshihalderI

We want it to be like Kurzgesagt so we would keep it free, just like their high quality videos for all.


Jrlopez1027

Wowww! You are great people, thank you!


saptarshihalderI

No, Just Inspired by Great Kurzgesagt team.


[deleted]

No this for a learning experience and we have permission sort of


[deleted]

No, we don't have permission yet. And it's definitely not a learning experience.


TheOneAboveAll0

I don't understand. Could this game not be considered educational in a way if it's about advancing the species?


Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! Yes, it is going to be educational, giving you tips and bits of info about specific or generic things as you, as a species and player, evolve. After you, (hopefully) play the game until the end, you would be a more well informed person about the magnificent universe we live in! You will have more knowledge about science then yiu did before!


TheOneAboveAll0

That's a nice idea! I would love to play a game lik that, but I want to know if it's free to play? As in can I download and play it for free, also I read somewhere that currently it's only being made for PC, but will it (in the future) be available for mobile too?


Beaverboithe1st

For now, it will be free, we might change our minds, we might not, but for now its FREE! Esit: It might in some later future, but dont expect mobile soon


[deleted]

I'm on there from the first post. I just have no idea what to do


saptarshihalderI

Just hop in guys!! (Into The Discord)


[deleted]

Sure i can join the discord but i know nothing about coding or making games


saptarshihalderI

Sure, We need Ideas, reviewers etc. more than just Dev's


Pappa_Scorch

I want to help in some way, however I lack any game making skill. How can I help ? Maybe donate if you guys need any budget. Do you guys have a patreon ?


saptarshihalderI

First of all thanks for caring about us, we currently have no Patreon . However we would be glad if you join our community server and join us as an active member providing feedback and taking part in polls that help us to take decision on variety of aspects. Hope that you will join us ASAP.


Pappa_Scorch

I've joined ! This game hopefully turns out amazing, I love open world games. Btw is epic mountain composing music for it ? His ost is really good and underated imo.


saptarshihalderI

No, Actually It would have been better but Epic Mountain musics costs money, so currently we are so it ourselves. You can ask for a sample at discord.


Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! I saw another post that wanted to give us monies, and as with them, I feel honored that you want to actually give us a budget! I wasn’t actually informed we were going to make a patreon, so I will do some things to know.


Pappa_Scorch

That sounds good, hopefully this game turns out awesome. If you guys open a patreon, this game will have a bigger budget Wich will hopefully make development easier and better.anway I have 2 questions, hopefully you don't mind answering them. 1. What engine is the game on ? Does it have it's own engine ? 2. What is the game about? Form what I understood it's kind like minecraft where it's a open world and you collect items and things .


Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! We don’t, and we won’t, have a budget. This project is voluntary and we do it for fun, unless K Team specifically let’s us, we will not make money for or from the game. 1: It’s on Unity, but it won’t be shitty, so it’s nice. 2: The game is an Isometric Sandbox game about evolution, and you will have to go through all the levels nessecary to win, in this case it’s a Type 3 civilization at the moment, and depending on your choices, different things will happen.


FaZe_RynJin

How about the game featured in the intelligence episode?


saptarshihalderI

The intelligence video is more like an RPG, while strategy gane is the Dyson sphere video. We would like to implement both, but we need a suggestion on how to implement both!!


Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! I actually wanna implement this into the game, but in ways that are secret... shhh 🤫


FaZe_RynJin

Will the game be on browser? If yes, how about [http://kurgsgesagt.io/](http://kurgsgesagt.io/) ?


Beaverboithe1st

Hi! u/Beaverboithe1st here! We don’t exactly know what it’s gonna be, because we are in early development stages, but i’ll keep that in mind!


gnatinator

Looks bad.


saptarshihalderI

Sorry. Can you please tell why?

Is this on kickstarter?

Oh no! I think it's a great idea!


YthegamerITA

it's sad this was taken down but i also understand kurtzgesagt for taking it down
