HPP: Supernatural horror title Ghost Theory makes the jump to a more powerful engine, but developer Dreadlocks needs fans’ help.
VRFocus spoke with developer Dreadlock Inc on their title that lets you experience real life haunted locations.
Word of Dreadlocks’ investigative horror title Ghost Theory has been few and far between for some time now, but today, the developer shared a large update on the game and its progress to its Kickstarter backers.
I hope this turns out better than the latest Homefront game, cause that ran like garbage on cry-engine
Seems to me like switching to CryEngine at this time is a bad move. Crytek is in a weird financial situation and the future of the engine is uncertain. And UE4 is just a better choice if they're looking for a graphics powerhouse. It's a much more feature-rich engine
Plus.... Unity games can look way better than that demo. Both Unity and UE4 are great choices
Ehh they should've stayed with Unity, it's alot more diverse and open than CryEngine. Also, Unity has alot of developers support. By that i mean add-ons, plugins, it's open source. I think this was a bad move. Actually I think most devs should give Unity a try. It's astounding.
edit then they switch to cry engine and not even use it for the graphics, i don't see why they should've switched especially with crytek damn near going bankrupt.
edit 2: and on top of everything Unity supports VR easier to port your game to VR using Unity. I don't even think Crytek has a VR element in the Engine, i'll look into it when I get home.
Surprised they didn't use Lumberyard as it's the same thing but surely Amazon offer more long term stability than Crytek.

Nice, I enjoyed Dex. Can't wait to see what these guys can do with the horror genre.
