Looking forward to Titanic Honor and Glory when it releases. Would be cool if they opted for this instead of 3d models of people.

The very first, and very last time I ever donated to a kickstarter was Titanic: Honor and Glory. I think I donated when I was 19 years old, and I'm almost 28 now and the game still isn't close to being done to what was advertised of it.

I bought a first class cabin on the manifesto for me, my dad and husband thinking it would be a nice gesture. If the manifesto was set in 1912, since then, my husband and I have split up and my dad has dumped me for his new girlfriend. Now, if I ever see that manifesto, I'm pretty sure it will look like my dad and his wife (I never changed my last name) and their Arab Muslim servant. Immortalised forever. It better be a nice room representing my life as a sinking ship.

Part of me has given up hope of it releasing, they've been working on it for over 11 years now

What are you hoping for release?

A full game with characters and a story? You’re right, they officially gave ambition up years ago after never finalizing a deal for funding.

Or are you waiting for a full ship, empty but completely explorable? Because Demo 401 has been out for a year, and it features almost the entire ship. Version 2.0 will be coming out in a few days with even more spaces to explore and will be released in Unreal Engine 5:

The team is currently remaking most of the ship for an entirely different future release. Not sure why or if the difference will be be that noticeable.

It’s funny how visually the best looking “game” coming out this spring is a tech demo from an indy studio. Stoked for getting a chance to explore it in UE5. Just wish a larger company could pick up what they did, and turn out a full-fledged narrative for it.

Imagine an LA Noir style detective game, where you are a detective travelling back to the US, then the crew approaches you to let you know a murder has occurred. They are keeping it quiet, but you have to find out who did it before the ship gets to New York, you unlock a big conspiracy, then shit hits the fan when the iceberg hits.

I'm downloading the demo as we speak. It's been years since I've checked up on them.
