The Evolution of creating a game: Lobby tech Studios

Hello internet and welcome to yet another fantastic blog post. Today's post is going to be different. You may or may not know, but I am on many forums for UDK and Unreal 4. I'll post my materials or comment someones questions. One day I revived a message from someone in the Philippines, his name was Mathew Martin. At the time I believe he had a question regarding matinees and cameras in the UDK engine. I shortly prompted my knowledge on Matthew and we were both on our way. Well a few days later I received more messages from Mathew. He needed more help, he needed more people on his team, he need audio. Now Mathew is relatively young in early 20's (if that) so he may not have had all his connections yet. Me being the nice guy I am I helped Mathew and his small team.

What we needed first was some kick ass music for the Main Menu. Well luckily me being a terrific producer, I already has someone in mind. Ryan Cawley and I have worked on a few smaller projects made in UDK and Unreal 4 in the past. Basically the dude is an audio genius. Ryan records all of his own sounds and composes sweet music and SFX out of his recordings. So I showed him a few screen shots and he then provided the audio. Take a look below.

After some great progression Lobby Tech was looking to branch out and expand. They worked from a small room with PC's and a few young guys. After the Mansion they guy decided what would be best was to take what they had from the Mansion project, and move on so they did. Sometimes creating a game can me a hard process. The theme doesn't come alive, your team members might be too small, or even financially getting the game out there can be impossible. When these problems arise my advice would be: Don't look at it as a failure. Your tired something and went for it. That is terrific. Take what you learned from the project and apply its lessons to the next project. That is exactly what Lobby Tech Studios did. From the ashes of the Mansion came heinous.

Doing work as we say in America.





So Lobby Tech has started a new project.

The concept of this game is much hilarious and scarier than the old concept. This concept will take more time for us to finish everything, we will also raise a crowdfunding site for us to be able to get funds for the project and we can support the project, we might also need sponsors and partners for the game. Also, our target date for the demo release will be this April, well, see you gamer's and conquer your fear inside THE MANSION of HEINOUS.
