More videos are on the way but just want to get some interaction on what you guys think of this idea for a video.
I am thinking of doing review/introspective of the game which will cover the history, mechanics and more about the game, which I think will be a good way to advertise the game and also explain
what the game is and if you should play it or not, this would be a long project that would take an extended period of time in which I would research, script and make a review that could be up to an hour long as a one off.
Just on the planning table atm just want to get the forums opinions and especially people who are interested in aurora and if it would be useful to have a review to give to someone not sure about if they should play aurora or not.
I love the concept of a pitch video specifically targeting prospective new players--those who have heard of the game, are intrigued, and want to know a bit more before diving in.
I don't think an hour-long video is needed.
You should make it no longer than five minutes, and you don't need to go into the history of the project.
Essentially, you should just briefly discuss the major aspects of Aurora gameplay, while showing clips of the UI.
Go fast.
Prospective players don't need an explanation of mechanics, or any discussion (or even mention) of quirks, edge cases, or the gameplay balance beneath the mechanics.
Just show the meat of the game: the depth and breadth of decisions available to the player, and the tools that are used to implement those decisions.
