Building Your Own .hack Game!

Post by Erroneous »

In the past we saw many attempts of a fan .hack game with 2D and 3D games, most were online, but more importantly trying to capture that feeling of The World en masse. Unfortunately time, upkeep, and drama dwindled down those projects and games and all we have are memories. But anyone with motivation, time, and a goal can make their own .hack game in many formats from: text adventure, visual novels, 2D game, 2D online game, 3D game, and 3D online game.

I'm leaving this topic open for the discussion for people interested in attempting at a .hack game, to show off their progress on either a standalone or game/server client based on The World. If you have a game in the works, let us know your progress. If you need help, seek peer-to-peer support here, or if you need a team, pitch your idea here to find your team.

And should you have concerns about CyberConnect2 coming after your project, hear this statement from the CEO himself regarding fan projects.



Basically, go for it!, but don't tell us. ;)

And BandaiNamco's statement.

Basically non-profits are good, better if you don't copy/paste textures, models, or art directly from them.

Go forth and good luck!
