IN
DEVELOPMENT
Ascendancy
II will take the same fundamental principles of galactic exploration
and encounter that Logic Factory pursued with the original, and
modernize and translate them to work in a persistent online multiplayer
universe.
Unique
species with back histories, large ability trees that provide the
player with a wide array of complementary abilities, massive unexplored
galaxies, and more original Logic Factory music will remain as essential
components of the sequel.
However,
utilizing our new in-house development engine, Hydra, as well as
building upon these last years of experience and customer feedback
the gameplay, 3d effects, artwork, and sound and music will all
be enhanced beyond what was possible in the past.

Fire
Fire
(working title) will utilize the 3d world creation capabilities
of our Hydra development engine to create a game that all of us
here have wanted to play, but have been unable to find: a fire fighting
simulation that is simple to use, but hard to master.
One
will be able to zoom directly up to the blaze fighting action, or
pan out for a better view of the overall threat. If the wind picks
up from the South you may have to send some crews to cut a fire
trail. And if your planes are backing up the front line, you may
not be able to use them where a small fire has started to spread
in the next county.
Because
of Hydra we will be able to create Fire with Triple-A quality, but
in a time frame that is dramatically compressed from most big games.

Hydra
Hydra
is Logic Factory's new, in-house 3D game engine. After more than
a year of effort and with more than $2 million invested Logic Factory
has now created a portable, discreet package of developer resources
that we are calling Hydra because of it's multiple applications
for inputting interactive music, full 3d worlds and the objects
and actions that are incorporated into them, and because of its
cross platform portability.
The
feature list is immense, so suffice it to say that most of our people
here believe that the investment placed in Hydra is now paying off
in ways that are justifying our highest goals in the computer gaming
industry.
