Difficulty Modes Update

Gina Zerosteam_community_announcements

768d ago

Hi everyone! It's been almost three months since the release of Ereban: Shadow Legacy and we're really happy with all the support and super useful feedback that you've given us. Thank you so much! One of the most recurrent topics has been regarding the difficulty of the game. Some of you found the game too easy, while others found it too difficult. So, in order to make the game enjoyable for all playstyles, we're so excited to show you what we've been working on during the past month: new difficulty modes! The objetive of this update is to adapt the gameplay to each of your preferences and previous experience with stealth. First time trying a stealth game? The easy mode is perfect for you. You've played plenty of stealth games before? The hard mode will provide a more challenging experience for you! Besides, this update also includes a Hardcore mode for the most reckless players. This mode has the same settings as the Hard mode, BUT with permadeath and no saving options. Complete the full game in a row, the eight chapters without dying a single time, if you have the guts. The difficulty mode can be selected after you start a New Game, changed from the Options Menu at any time, or selected from the Chapters Menu if you want to replay a chapter with a different difficulty mode. The Hardcore mode gets unlocked after you complete the game for the first time. If you had already completed the game before this update, you'll see the Hardcore mode is already available for you if you start a New Game. Here are some of the parameters that change depending on the selected difficulty:

Enemy perception, reactivity and speed
Loot chances
Ability cooldowns and crafting costs
Grenades time, radious and rate, and smoke grenades stun time
Shadow Veil and Shadow Doom are less or more difficult to time to use
In Easy mode, there's no death by falling
In Hard mode, stamina only refills in shadows
New rank available in Hard mode (Golden S) and new achievement: getting a Golden S in all chapters

And here is the complete patch notes with the rest of fixes and adjustments that are included in this update:

Difficulty Update: it adds Easy, Hard and Hardcore difficulty modes. Each difficulty setting applies general tweaks to game mechanics and to the enemy perception and behavior.
Fixed a building in Chapter IV that you could go through
Fixed a bug that blocked looting enemies if the body was on a sewer
Fixed a bug where SYMs got stuck in front of an open door in Chapter V
Fixed a bug that was causing the SYMs from a sidequest in Chapter III to stay neutralized even if you died or restarted the checkpoint
Fixed a bug that was causing some minor materials to not be counted if you picked them up when replaying a chapter
We're also still working on a fix for the stuttering issue that happens in some computers. As soon as we manage to fix it, we'll update it and let you know.

To celebrate this update, and on the occasion of the Steam Summer Sale, for the first time the game has a 25% discount! This is the perfect moment to grab your copy of Ereban if you still don't have it, so don't miss out! If you encounter any problem with this update, please email us to [email protected]. We also recommend you join our Discord! We're pretty active there and it'll definitely be faster to solve any doubts you might have. Thank you all, we hope you enjoy the new update! The Baby Robot Games team

Visual fixes and adjustments.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/87bdecf099c21d114bcdbd1bd5b81d66355678e8.jpg

Hello! Baby Robot Games Pets here!

Last week we skipped our ‘Meet the Devs’ blog because we were busy at Gamescom with our Shadow Merge video featuring in the Future Games Show - but when we got back to the office we found it had gone to the dogs! And the cats! So, as a special bonus finale for the series, we’re very happy to introduce you to the Pets of the Devs of Ereban! --------------------------------------------- Bella - (Elena Gómez - Environment Artist) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/b354384c053afdd4249cfb28ea0448098f2792e1.png Bella arrived in our lives when she was seven months old. Her first family couldn't take care of her anymore so we decided to adopt her. She has always been a calm dog and she likes to spend hours on the sofa with her owners to receive love and cuddles. She gets crazy around food and she may scratch your leg in order to ask for some ham, but obviously she has her own inside the fridge. However, she has to earn it sometimes so we’ve trained her to do some little tricks. I like to call her princess because sometimes I feel like she is the owner of everything in the house, she has right of way around the whole place, she sleeps where she likes, etc… Oh, and don't you dare to give her bread only, she might not take it. In conclusion, she is one more of the family and personally it's so good to have her close to you when you need to have a quick break from your duties. Although we lost some socks and flip flops during those years, it was totally worth it. Charly - (Andrea López Tur - Producer) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/73784b61246d06da6a8e4a9b77f7ae50169144b7.png This is Charly! He's been with me for almost two years, and the truth is that he’s the result of a foster fail! Since I’ve been volunteering as a foster home for a local animal shelter, it has always been fine when the cats leave for their new home. However, with Charly it was different: he stayed with me way longer than usual due to the pandemic and I fell in love with him, so in the end… I decided to adopt him myself! He's a very good boi that scratches everywhere but never breaks anything, he plays a lot with his foster siblings, and always keeps me company! He also loves his wet food and attending our online meetings when I work from home hahaha. Ciri - (Alejandro Márquez - Game Director) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/fb5b8af2d63d6f938360681a276cb061483b56e8.png This is Ciri, a stray cat my brother rescued from the street. She was only weeks old, was missing part of her ear and had her belly wounded. However, as the character we named her after, she was tough and managed to survive, and lived with us for many wonderful years. She was really playful (was known for her bites) and smart, and whenever we had a visit, she always wanted to be in the middle of the conversation. Also, as you see in the picture, she really loved to lay down in the sun. Unfortunately, she left us during this development, but in our family we'll remember her forever <3 Cleo - (Oriol Rubiano - Animation Director) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/6aef2fa96e27637f8b1d07a0cc161f31f462d521.png This is Cleo! She's a 9 years old jack russell and she's my niece. During the day she's calm and friendly, but when night comes she transforms into a monster and starts barking at blind rollers and showing her teeth to anyone who wants to sit on the sofa too close to her. She's always the queen of wherever she is. She hates firecrackers and other dogs, and loves the beach and unpacking presents. As you can see she always poses for photos, knowing she's a beauty. She even has an Instagram account! Maya - (Jessica Adam - 3D Animator) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/e5e6409a9d8d410a984339af550313d48ab1c12b.png This is Maya! She's been with me and my family for over six years now, since we adopted her. She is like a shadow following me around wherever I am, keeping me company at all times. I adore those moments when I'm working, turn around to check on her and I can see her sleeping so peacefully, it soothes me to the soul. Sometimes we can see her, out of the blue, jumping on walls and running at lightning speed like she has been possessed or something - we need to be careful while stepping out of the room, or we might get run over by a crazy cat! Niru - (Fernando Barroso - Level Designer) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/405686132365847077674d469b93f6f1027386eb.png Adopted in Madrid after being found inside a trash can when she was just a baby, Niru started her second life by my side, and it didn’t take long until she embraced the Andalusian roots of her owner. Highly sociable, when she’s not napping, she often asks for cuddles – even to strangers! She always gives them a warm welcome. Niru also loves to play, but ironically, she rarely uses the toys I buy her, and ends up entertaining herself with the first random thing she encounters. Her personality brings peace and warmth at home, apart from lots of laughs, and she is one of those cats you always have to be ready if you want to capture her funny poses and bizarre behavior! Roma and Tyrion - (Juanlu Pinto - Art Director) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/bec91ed46057b919d06bbd4c6247ab4fb82d59a3.png This is Roma (the fluffy shar pei) and Tyrion. We adopted Roma when she was 4 months old and Tyrion was 4 years old. Sadly, just when they started getting along, Tyrion got sick and passed away. He was really funny, always outside the cage, running, jumping, eating frame doors (not that funny), sleeping in places where he could see us. He used to follow me everywhere, He was like our first dog. Rest in peace my dear friend. Roma is one of a kind. When she arrived home, we were a bit concerned because she spent around 20 hours sleeping (she has the spirit of a Koala), apparently something normal for a puppy shar pei. But now that she’s 1 year old, she is not like that anymore. Now she sleeps around 18 hours. She’s the laziest and cutest dog of the neighborhood. She loves being around other people and dogs. She’s really friendly. When she sees someone she knows, she runs to say hello moving her tail and butt. But watch out!! Sometimes she gets super excited and she starts biting (gently) your legs. She’s part of the family and part of the Baby Robot Team, coming to the office from time to time just to make our day funnier…for some of us… Shira - (Alberto Sánchez - Technical Director) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/7add7138129eaa64f2bba36843df4f26bb61edf5.png This is Shira. She's been part of my family for more than eight years. She was only a few weeks old when we found her alone, wandering the streets of my mother’s hometown. We immediately decided to adopt her and bring her back with us to Barcelona. She is very friendly and never barks, even if she doesn't know you. While I am at home, she is always around me, following me everywhere. She enjoys our company, and we enjoy hers. Although she is not a puppy anymore, she is still very playful and loves running and meeting other friends from our neighborhood to play together. --------------------------------------------- Well now you know the ENTIRE Baby Robot Games team!

Ereban's Shadow Merge Ability Explained

aterrettsteam_community_announcementsworkshop

1440d ago

Hey, Baby Robot Devs here!

We are proud to report that Ereban: Shadow Legacy was featured on last night’s Gamescom Future Games Show! In our segment, Game Director Alejandro Márquez spoke in depth on what you can expect from the Shadow Merge mechanic. In case you missed it you can watch Alex’s section just below, or read on to find out even more about the Shadow Merge ability. SHADOW MERGE: ORIGINS We’ve always been big fans of stealth games. Since we were children, we have grown up playing awesome stealth games such as Metal Gear or Splinter Cell, and this passion has continued with more recent titles like Dishonored, Aragami and A Plague Tale. Unfortunately, we've always felt there weren't enough stealth games out there, so we really wanted to contribute to this genre that has given us such good memories. However, we wanted to do it our way and add something new to it. Our first step was determining the main mechanic: traditionally, stealth games have used shadows and darkness to make you less visible, so we thought... “what if you could literally merge with the shadows?” Taking an entirely different game as reference, Splatoon, we started testing if it felt good to move through the shadows in a similar way they do with ink. That was the spark that originated Ereban and the Shadow Merge. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/16f1cda1cfa47cfe3f303e232c846a0efb3e21f8.gif But apart from this original mechanic, we felt this was an opportunity to experiment a bit with the stealth standards and incorporate some properties from other genres we also loved. Enabled by the possibilities of this mechanic, we combined stealth with platforming and puzzles, making it more dynamic than classic stealth games and appealing to any kind of playstyle. No matter if you are a cautious or impulsive player or an explorer, this game will appeal to you. SHADOW MERGE: ABILITIES Now that you know the origins of the main mechanic, the Shadow Merge, we'd like to take a deep dive into it. As we have mentioned, the Shadow Merge is the ability that allows you to literally merge with the shadows and navigate through the shaded surfaces like if you were swimming underwater. Let's take a look at the variety of possibilities this power has and why it makes you the perfect stealth agent! Stealth A big advantage of this ability is that when you’re inside the shadows, you’re totally undetectable. Imagine how useful this is to deal with your enemies discreetly! A few examples of what you can do are:

Smoothly advance under the enemies’ feet without being detected
Suddenly appear behind their backs if you choose to play lethal
Conveniently disappear right in front of their noses if you’re in danger

As long as you’re not flashed by a light or stay too much time merged in, the shadows have your back! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/2fc99bfeb950ae75d0db90ffd5f1402079bf1ab4.gif Mobility Apart from the convenient stealth possibilities, the Shadow Merge also means a big advantage in terms of mobility. Here’s some of the stuff you can to do thanks to the mechanic if there are shadows in the area:

Climb walls and reach high and otherwise inaccessible places
Use moving objects or their moving shadows to navigate from one place to the other
Go through small spaces to access restricted areas, ignoring fences, bars or gratings
Jump from high places and smoothly land in a shadow, completely safe and silent

As you see, the Shadow Merge is very versatile, so it’s up to you to discover, experience and combine all its possibilities! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/6014f07103beb36172f26fe303417adc7bdfa861.gif The communion between Ayana and the shadows is something innate to her lost race, the Ereban. As you discover more and more about your ancestors, you’ll understand how they managed to dominate the shadows and all their possibilities for generations. Find these sources of knowledge, absorb them, and you'll learn not only new upgrades for the Shadow Merge but also completely new shadow powers. Buuut that’s a new topic for another time! If you liked the game and wish to know more about the shadow powers and the many other features of the game, make sure to wishlist us and follow us on twitter to get all our updates! Thanks everyone, - Baby Robot Games Team

Hello! Baby Robot Games devs here yet again!

Last week we continued our blog series introducing you to the members of Baby Robot Games working on Ereban: Shadow Legacy - you met the whole Art Team and learned how they make Ereban look so good. This week is no different! Today we’re very happy to introduce you to the Programming and Animation teams! Meet Alberto, Oriol, Pablo, and Jessica! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Alberto Sánchez - Technical Director {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/5fb94b423583ee1d17b3d6680b44fa3d082ea911.png Hello there! I’m Alberto, one of the founders and Technical Director at Baby Robot Games. To get to my first memory I have from videogames, we have to go back to the summer of ‘99, when one of my cousins gave me one of the best presents I’ve ever received: a Sega Master system with Sonic, Ghost ‘n Goblins, Streets of Rage and many more classics... I would not leave my room for the rest of the summer. The following years were the years of Cybercafes. There, I would play for hours and hours with my friends. Games like Half Life and Counter Strike. Somehow, I managed to convince my parents to buy me a computer, so that I could also play at home. It was then that I discovered that many of these games come with modding tools that allow you to customize the gameplay and visuals of the game. I remember creating my own levels and scripts that I could publish on my server so that other people could play them. It was amazing to see how players enjoy what you create. That was when I decided that I wanted to be a game developer, but I would never have imagined what was coming. Developing Ereban: Shadow Legacy, has been the biggest technical challenge I have ever faced. The amazing Shadow Merge mechanic that we created together with cel shaded aesthetics opens a whole new world of opportunities but also challenges, in terms of shadow detection, surface collision and many more. My main job as a technical director is to work side by side with the programming team and also the artist team, in order to achieve the best results and performance for the game. We work very hard as the programming team to provide the best gameplay experience for the players and also to create the best tools for the team. Also, as a graphics programmer, I work very closely with the artist team in order to improve the visuals of the game. It’s such a pleasure to work together with this team and we are really putting our passion and efforts into Ereban to provide the best experience for the players. Oriol Rubiano - Animation Director {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/6bdc07e94e3315e1df8ed351be12d02e483f590c.png Hello people! I'm Uri, co-founder and programmer at Baby Robot Games. One of my first memories is watching my cousin playing Pokemon Red on his Game Boy. I loved what I saw. Those monsters, choosing the next attack, moving through a world full of adventures... It was love at first sight. Some time later my parents gave my sister a PS One (which I played more than she did) and to me they gave a Game Boy Advance SP, one of my favorite consoles ever that I carried with me everywhere I went. I remember those times fondly, the games had a special magic that I suppose is partly nostalgia now, but for me games such as Golden Sun, Advance Wars, Zelda: Ocarina of Times/Seasons and similar titles don't age by the passage of the years. I was 14 years old the first time I had the idea of being a Game Developer and I started channeling all my studies to it, but I never imagined that I would be creating a company with five friends and having such a great team as we have right now. Developing Ereban is one of the most intense and difficult experiences of my life. We have put so much effort in, but we’ve also had so much luck to be where we are. I work side-by-side with Jess to make the animations look good and natural for the game, not animating directly but giving her direction for the feeling and actions of each one. However, my role in Ereban is very diverse, so it's hard for me to call myself "Animation Director", as I'm also in charge of the AI, gameplay programming, cutscenes and business paperwork. I'm looking forward to watching people playing and enjoying our first game. I'm especially hyped to see how people use the Shadow Merge mechanic to create their own paths through the levels, exploring the maps freely or sneaking behind an enemy without making any noise. Pablo Gómez - Gameplay Programmer {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/0db20c669b9331e89e2e67f81acf52cd170a5a3b.png What’s up people? My name is Pablo, and I’m the gameplay programmer of the Baby Robot Games team. It’s cool, right? The truth is that when I was a child, I wanted to be a firefighter. I imagined myself saving little cats, putting out fires and rescuing people like a hero. But then video games came into my life (or rather, into my school). I was 9 or 10 years old and I remember playing Prince of Persia for the first time and freaking out with it. After hours playing this and other games (Pacman, Golden Axe, Super Pang, etc.) I went to my teacher and asked him how I could make games like those. He told me that it was very difficult, because if I wanted to make video games I needed to study a lot of mathematics, computers and go to the University. Maybe, for a normal child, these words could have been discouraging, but not for me. I went straight home and told my mother that I already knew what I wanted to be when I grew up, a “videogame creator”. And well... I’m here, mini Pablo, we did it. What I like the most about Ereban is the fluidity of Ayana’s movements, how she moves by the walls, floors or other objects while she’s merged in the shadows, dodging enemies or (my gameplay preference) killing them stealthily from behind. My work as a gameplay programmer is to make all the mechanics and elements of the game work perfectly to convey to the player our vision of this world, Ayana’s story and - of course - make them have a great time. If you’re a merciless killer of robots like me, you’ll have a great time hunting them relentlessly with all the abilities, powers and gadgets you’ll have at your disposal. I'm excited to see you play Ereban! Jessica Adam - 3D Animator {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/075944bb86a9a90792689220a8ff7b29736f5a40.png Hi! My name is Jess and I’m the animator who bestows life to the characters in Ereban: Shadow Legacy. Ever since I was little I’ve loved devouring stories. What motivated me the most to keep reading book after book, or comic after comic were the characters. I wanted to know what would happen to them at the end of the story! Then one day I discovered video games, and I got hooked to the Final Fantasy series or any RPG that I could get my hands on. I was amazed at the brand new way that allowed me to enjoy storytelling through immersing myself as the character and exploring that world at my own pace and will. I’m also a huge fan of Ghibli, I've lost count on how many times I’ve rewatched their movies, fascinated at how this animation studio brings characters to life, and how much detail and thought is put in every frame and movement. I think that’s what got me into animation. After working as a graphic designer for some years, I wanted to do something more exciting, and when I finally entered the animation world, oh boy! I felt like I had discovered a new world that would broaden my horizons by meeting so many new people, cultures and learning everyday so much thanks to them. I worked for a TV series before changing to videogames. I wanted to go back to my teenage self and have fun with interactive stories and environments, and of course, to play too! I love to have the chance to work on Ereban, so I can be part of a game that other people can play and enjoy. I hope everyone will be curious about Ayana’s journey, what her decisions will bring her, what she is capable of, and what is going on in the world she is in. I hope you can just sit and be immediately drawn by the story and the action, to feel and be moved by the characters in this world as you enter it, and let your curiosity take the best of you. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - And now you know how Ayana is able to move around so stealthily using her Shadow Merge! Stay tuned for the last entry in the Meet the Devs series - and a fun surprise :) In the meantime, please consider wishlisting Ereban: Shadow Legacy on Steam and follow us on twitter @BabyRobotGames - where we’ll be posting more content about the game! Thank you all very much and we hope you like it! - Baby Robot Games Team

Hello! Baby Robot Games devs here again!

Last week we kicked off a blog series introducing you to the members of Baby Robot Games working on Ereban: Shadow Legacy - you met the Design, Narrative and Production teams and learned how they contribute to the project and what part of the game they’re most looking forward to. Today we’re very happy to continue the series by introducing you to the Art team! Meet Juanlu, Brian, Alex, Elena, and Emma! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Juanlu Pinto - Art Director {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/f81b313408db1d8fa314a43b2dc7b2a31f9b3aab.png Hello there! I’m Juanlu, co-founder and Art Director of Baby Robot Games. Like many of you, I grew up playing the classics: Sonic, Paperboy, Alex the Kidd and Golden Axe. I don´t know how many hours I’ve spent playing Final Fantasy VII with my neighbor, evening after evening just sitting in front of the tv and having fun. Video games and art have always been part of my life, but it was only after I started studying History that I got super interested in drawing; watching youtube videos and reading books about the basics of drawing. I will never forget how valuable the oil painting lessons from my Auntie were. Finally, I made the decision of my life to pursue my dreams, changing my professional career from History teacher to video games artist. As a result, I ended up working on Assassin´s Creed Valhalla (a dream come true). Working as an Art Director on Ereban: Shadow Legacy has been an amazing experience so far. My idea behind the direction of the game was to create a world where we mix ancient structures with the sci-fi elements of the megacorporation Helios. The player will be able to explore locations from tranquil ancient ruins, to hectic industrial sci-fi settlements. Games like Destiny, Rage or Borderlands have been a huge inspiration. My main task as the art director is to ensure that the rest of the team is on the same page and following the moodboards, references and tone for every part of the game. Finding a good balance between level design (gameplay) and aesthetic is probably the most difficult challenge I have to deal with everyday. Simple shapes (as squarish as possible), hard lights and the limitations of the engine are some of the stuff we have to keep in mind when designing new structures or props. Something I love about our game is the variety in terms of maps we have: linear interior and exterior areas, tiny “open worlds”, cities… The best part is that each one of them will give you the opportunity to play in a different way, for example using the verticality of the streets and buildings of Kabnak city, choosing between the differents paths to reach your goal, or discovering hidden places (that will allow you to know the story of Ayana) while you explore the map. I can’t wait to see you all playing it! Brian Ramírez - Principal Environment Artist {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/10ebcb14f4f04d234ccfb14c4cef9d6da52cbb54.png Hello everyone! I’m Brian, one of the founders and main Environment Artist of Ereban: Shadow Legacy. I think it was in my teenage years when I decided to work on games. Watching the ‘making of’s my favorite games revealed a lot of creative energy that made me dream about being part of that process. Although I didn’t know in which field yet, so I decided to try different options until I reached the one that fits. Fun fact: at first I tried to learn coding, but I ended up in the art field. I quickly discovered that Math and I don’t hang out too well. Joining the Art field has been my best choice so far. To me, working in the environments of Ereban means to put constantly into practice the idea that the setting is just like another character of the story. Alongside the art team, I try to discern, as much as possible, the purpose of the scene, researching which textures and shapes are the best for each moment, and how they work together when we create the level. Lastly, I would like to add that I'm a graphic freak, especially on how the structures and textures are done. So I hope that anyone that loves this side as well enjoys checking out the different areas that we made for you to explore. Worth watching! Alex Alonso - Principal Character Artist {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/90cd8b45eeec25d28f2cfbc5ee8b8dae9e937ac7.png Hi! I'm Alex, one of the founders of Baby Robot Games and Character Artist for our current project, Ereban: Shadow Legacy. According to that primary school book where students write what they want to be when they grow up, little Alex wanted to be a comic book artist or a videogame developer. Well, we can say that this boy, who spent his classes drawing at his desk, has fulfilled what he wrote at such an early age (at least one out of the two options). By the way, nobody could beat that kid at Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3 either. One thing that always interested me about videogames was the fact of creating a virtual space, with its rules and limitations, where you as a player entered it and developed yourself inside. Anything could happen and you lived it as "real", your actions had consequences (even if that means punching Majin Buu in the face), in a place created and measured by someone. How satisfying to create something like that. Designing characters has always been my passion, I used to draw cute strange creatures and monsters in my school notebooks. Now my task is to create the characters for Ereban: Shadow Legacy, the whole process, from concept design to 3D modeling and texturing. For example, our main character Ayana, who descends from a special race that has the power to merge with the shadows. But many other characters will appear during the game, I can't wait to see them in action. I am eager and curious to see how people will play and enjoy our game; what actions they will perform, what paths they will choose, what situations they will discover that we as developers wouldn't even have thought of. To me, that's the point of creating something where people can create their own adventures, where everyone will play in their own way. Elena Gómez – Environment Artist {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/8a7c3d1ecfe950f3f70f9ea292df9e8660f3a0ed.png Hello world! I’m Elena, Environment Artist on Ereban: Shadow Legacy. Video Games have been part of my life for a long time and it has become one of my favorite hobbies since my parents bought me a PlayStation 2 at the age of 7. I remember exploring the colorful and exciting places from the Jak and Daxter Series, the feeling of adventure in Dragon Quest VIII and spending wonderful hours with my younger sister and friends playing Mario Party and Just Dance. However, I started to get more curious about how games were made, and thanks to attending some industry events I was able to ask questions to different indie developers. After researching the different roles in development teams I decided I wanted to focus on Art. I really like the visual impact scenes can have on people; not just in games but also in films, paintings, plays, etc. Furthermore, I think it is awesome to create a 3D piece of art, and later on see it implemented in the game. One of my main goals working on Ereban is to model interesting 3D pieces and create interesting environments which help the player get more immersed in the story. Working on Ereban has given me the opportunity to continue with my artistic career and I feel privileged to be able to learn from my friends and colleagues. I can’t wait to see what your feelings are with this adventure and your favorite places to visit in Ereban: Shadow Legacy. Emma Montserrat – Environment Artist Intern {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/ed22996f61ee9d222a647a8ceca9121ed165c9b9.png Hi there! I’m Emma, the first intern ever (what a title, huh) at Baby Robot Games, working on Ereban: Shadow Legacy. I have just finished my studies and Ereban: Shadow Legacy has given me the opportunity to take a look inside video game development and take part in it. My main job is making 3D objects to fill the rooms and scenarios. For as long as I can remember, I have always been with a pencil at my side, being told off by teachers because I spent all class time drawing in my book or on the tables. I quickly developed a love of comic books which added ‘storytelling’ to my list of passions. So when I started discovering more and more the language of video games, I just fell in love. I don't know exactly when but I decided I would become a game developer. I wasn't really sure art was my thing, but surprise! Art is not a ‘talent’, it is just hard work and practice. As soon as I realized that, nobody could take the idea of becoming an artist out of my head, even if they tried. The games I most enjoy are those where the narrative is broken and hidden in the world, so I have to search for it. I really like games that don't explain every narrative detail literally, like Dark Souls or Rime. So here we are, after a long studying path I was able to give a part of myself to Ereban. I just can't wait to hear how the players think and feel about the quality of the in-game environments. I remember my first thought when I saw Ereban: “How this can be an indie game?! This looks like AAA, these people are crazy". - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - And now you know why Ereban looks so good! Stay tuned for the next entry in the series where we’ll introduce the Programming and Animation teams, Alberto, Pablo, Uri and Jess! In the meantime, please consider wishlisting Ereban: Shadow Legacy on Steam and follow us on twitter @BabyRobotGames - where we’ll be posting more content about the game!

Hello! Baby Robot Games devs here!

We hope you’ve been having a great time since we announced Ereban: Shadow Legacy to the world. It was so exciting to see all your kind words, opinions and hype, thank you so much! Today we’re starting a small series we’ve been wanting to do for a while now: a presentation of the team members! As you know, Baby Robot Games is a young and small indie studio. Right now, we’re twelve members in the core team, who we’ll be introducing over the next few weeks! Today, we’ll be starting with the Design, Narrative and Production teams. Meet Alex, Kristen, Fernando and Andrea! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Alejandro Márquez - Game Director {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/6d997cd39be39c3809a6651b6bacc2ee2f70d020.png Hi there! I'm Alex, one of the founders of Baby Robot Games and Game Director in Ereban: Shadow Legacy. Many of my fondest memories are tied to videogames. From playing the original Prince of Persia with my dad when I was a kid, through memorable moments like defeating The Boss in Metal Gear Solid 3, traversing the sea for the first time in TLoZ: Wind Waker or surviving the Suicide Mission in Mass Effect 2, up to my long sessions playing Overwatch, Rocket League or Minecraft with my friends, I knew I wanted to give back this same joy and memories to people out there. It was a bit later that I discovered what I wanted to be had an actual name: game designer. Little I knew by then that today, after a lot of effort, struggles (and of course some luck), I'd be surrounded by such a wonderful team and making a game like Ereban, which for a stealth lover like me, it's a dream come true. As a Game Director, my role here at Baby Robot Games is to make sure everybody is on the same page and every element of the game goes in the same direction to provide players the intended experience, while adapting to constraints, changes and ensuring the well being of the team. We're all putting our hearts into Ereban and I think there's a lot of features people are going to love, but for me one of the most exciting is how one single mechanic, the Shadow Merge, can be used in any kind of playstyle and offer so many possibilities for players to experience. I really can't wait to see people experimenting and playing their own way with it! Kristen McGorry - Narrative Director {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/8ccced479eeb133360fe7e4e068af53e7b51999e.png Hello there! I’m Kristen, the Narrative Director of Ereban: Shadow Legacy. From my first experience playing Castlevania II: Simon's Quest on my NES, I knew I wanted to make games. Story is something I am deeply passionate about and always have been. So it was natural to take my love of games and stories and bring them together. My first project as a writer was Fable Legends. The Fable series has always been very close to my heart as its trademark is quintessentially silly English humour. I got to create some entertaining characters, from the swashbuckling dandy Sterling to the deliciously devilish disembodied spirit trapped in cured armour, Malice. Sadly the game was canceled just before release, but I took everything I learned and channelled it into my work on Assassin’s Creed Origins and Valhalla. I even got a fart joke in. As the Narrative Director for Ereban, it's my job to make fascinating characters, a deeply engrossing story, and fun, surprising moments. So, no pressure. I am a big sci-fi fan and wanted to create something meaningful and relevant. My inspiration comes from writers such as Ray Bradbury, character-driven series such as The Expanse, and my favourite game of all time, Knights of the Old Republic. As a player I am so much more connected when narrative and characters are seamlessly woven into the gameplay. It creates a powerful, emotive experience. I am excited for people to play Ayana, as I hope she will be a complex and interesting person. Fernando Barroso - Level Designer {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/533a3f898ce1960be0dafd4150970d90006facc4.png Hello! I’m Fernando, Level Designer on Ereban: Shadow Legacy. Either scratching labyrinths on a piece of paper or coming up with escape room ideas, creating playable spaces is something I’ve always found joy in doing. On the other hand, video games have been in my life for as long as I can remember, and the potential of the medium has never ceased to amaze me. Discovering they weren’t made with some sort of magic and the role of the level designer actually existed was a turning point for me, where I knew I had found my true passion. Over the years I've developed a special love for stealth games, getting heavily inspired by their creative use of space and the often multiple approaches to beat their levels. In that regard, designing for Ereban is being a blast of a challenge. I’m in charge of making the most out of our unique gameplay features by building playgrounds in which to explore and have fun with all their possibilities. And the truth is, from combat encounters to platforming, the shadow merge mechanic offers countless interesting situations. I'm eager to see you playing around with them and hear your thoughts about the different levels yet to be discovered! Andrea López Tur - Producer {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/9ffa47bf6cc1fc22bd51f6a444aeafb02b3e7f3f.png Hi everyone! I’m Andrea, the producer of Ereban: Shadow Legacy. I started out in the industry as the game designer and narrative designer of an indie game I was developing with a friend and a few collaborators, a satirical internet simulator about social puzzles called The Pizza Situation. As it usually happens in such small indie teams, we ended up having to wear many hats. One of mine was taking care of the production and project management tasks and... I loved it! That’s why a few years later I joined Baby Robot Games as a full time producer. My role is to organize the tasks to make sure there’s time and resources for everything, that everyone has what they need and nothing blocks anything, and to keep the project’s big picture always in mind so that the team can focus on their tasks. Still, whenever I can I help out Alex and Kristen with the game’s narrative design, as I still love it so much and I don’t think I could ever stay completely away from the creative side, especially of such a great game I think Ereban is becoming! I’m looking forward to seeing how the explorer players use the shadows to climb and sneak into all the hidden places and discover the details we are spreading out through the game! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - And those were the first four members of the Baby Robot Games team! Soon we’ll be posting a new entry introducing the artists that are making the game look so beautiful: Juanlu, Brian, Alex, Elena and Emma! In the meantime, please consider wishlisting Ereban: Shadow Legacy on Steam and follow us on twitter @BabyRobotGames - where we’ll be posting more content about the game!

Game Announce: Defy the Light in Ereban: Shadow Legacy

We here at Baby Robot Games, along with our publisher Raw Fury, could not be prouder to finally emerge from the shadows (pun intended) and reveal to you our debut game - Ereban: Shadow Legacy.

Ereban: Shadow Legacy is a fast-paced stealth platformer that combines innovative gameplay mechanics with stunning graphics in an immersive and new original sci-fi universe. This is our announce trailer, created entirely with in-game footage, that just exclusively premiered in the Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase 2022: We are Baby Robot Games, a young studio based in Spain. We started as a group of friends who have been passionate about games since we were children. At that age we already dreamt of creating games, but little did we know at that moment that this dream would become reality. Since then, more and more amazing people have joined us, sharing the same passion, to proudly form the team we are right now. Our goal is to provide the same joy and memories that playing games has given us by creating highly enjoyable experiences using original mechanics, strong visuals and compelling stories – and you will find each of these in Ereban. Besides, we have always loved stealth games, growing up with classics like Metal Gear, Splinter Cell or, most recently, Dishonored. We wanted to create something new in this genre that has given us such good memories, and this game is partly a love letter to those amazing titles but combined with original twists and other inspirations to make it what it is. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/476f77deb1e438bc00772ed0894904b2977ece30.jpg In Ereban: Shadow Legacy you’ll become Ayana, the last descendant of a long-forgotten race with the power of merging with the shadows. This unique ability, the Shadow Merge, will allow you to dive into the shadows and move freely through them to climb walls, reach inaccessible places, attack from cover or advance unseen. It opens a huge range of possibilities that, combined with Ayana’s other shadow powers, her agility and her high-tech gadgets, will allow you to play exactly the way you want. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/447ceaa39c7c8a677a08914eb4f366a8911e76d1.jpg As the last Ereban, you’ll unravel the mysterious relationship between the cryptic energy megacorporation Helios and your lost ancestors in a dying, morally grey sci-fi universe where actions go beyond good and evil. In your search for the truth, you’ll traverse ruins of lifeless cities, infiltrate sci-fi facilities carved into ancient temples and discover the remnants of your forgotten race. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/8aeeeefcf5ff4f369ea1f0e9c49af53bd58401a2.jpg And most importantly, you will have to choose to either cleverly avoid or mercilessly defeat anything at anyone that stands in your way. However, remember that nothing here is black or white, and actions have consequences. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/4d163acebd00be871659653997ad0bfb69beec89.jpg After years of hard work in the shadows (yes we do love that pun), we couldn’t be happier to have found such a great partner as Raw Fury, a team that is putting into the game the same effort and love we do. We’re sure that's visible at first sight just by looking at the amazing trailer they made for the announcement (we love you Roland!); and same goes for the rest of the team! Also, this would not be possible without all the people, devs, friends and family, that have helped us to arrive at the point we are now. Making games is fun and exciting, but also very hard and challenging, and we wouldn’t be here without all the help and love we have received from them. We still have a lot of work to do and we’re sure there will be difficult moments, but now, with this wonderful team and partner, we’ll work hard to make Ereban: Shadow Legacy a game to be proud of and that all of you can enjoy. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42518781/eea4f19b434f04825eeb98334d3c2f269f723c93.jpg And that’s not all! We are so excited to have partnered with Xbox and honoured to announce that Ereban: Shadow Legacy will be released in 2023 for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows PC - and available day one on both PC and Xbox Game Pass. If you want to learn more about Ereban: Shadow Legacy please consider wishlisting it here on Steam, checking out our website at ereban.com, and follow us on twitter @BabyRobotGames - we can’t wait to show you more content about the game, so stay tuned! Thank you all very much and we hope you like it! - Baby Robot Games Team
