A brilliant idea, in which we can see all the work of a video game creator, from the beginning to the end. Return Of The Obra Dinn is one of the most acclaimed titles of Nick Pope and has taken the trouble to record the entire construction process of the ideas I had in mind.
A total of 1649 working days from inception in 2015 to project completion in 2018. During all this time, numerous elements such as the ship, the corpses or the entire ship in which the action is located are modeled over time-lapse.
As Pope says, “this is a linear reproduction of all my editions in Maya and was generated using a set of custom tools to capture the data, process it and reproduce it in a consistent way. “
Of course, if you have not played Return Of The Obra Dinn you better stay away from this video if you want to avoid spoilers. Pope acknowledges that “if you haven’t played the game, this video will be confusing and boring. If you’ve played the game, the same problem.” At least he takes it with humor.
Return Of The Obra Dinn is available for PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. He has triumphed in various competitions, receiving awards and nominations in events as important as the BAFTAs or the Independent Festival Game Awards.
