Hello everyone, in this thread you can introduce yourself to the community, Let us know who you are, what you like to do, where/how you found this project, etc...
So, I'll go first...
My name is Dylan, I live in The Netherlands. I love to play games, especially RPG's and Horror games. Favorite Console Serie is Assassin's Creed. Favorite PC game, don't really have one. Favorite Movie has to be The Godfather trilogy.
How I found out about, The Grail;
I found out about The Grail after searching for "Indie games" on YouTube. I've been following this project for a while now and I really think this game is going to get far. I'm also a really competitive gamer and football player, always trying to win and a Web Developer so if you have any questions about that feel free to "Private Message" me
That's all I have to say about myself, feel free to introduce yourself aswell if you like to. Have a great day everyone!
Greetings, Dylan.

Hello Dylan and everyone else who are reading this! First of all, I'm happy to see your activity here and also that you like this game I supose it would be appropriate to introduce myself as well. So my name is Jan, I live in Czech Republic. I'm 23 years old and right now I'm studying Computer Science and Technology at VŠB - Technical University of Ostrava. I like cycling, running and drinking beer with friends And how I ended up developing this game? It's a long story but here it is I am quite a passionate gamer since I was a kid ( I've played a lot of games - all genres, but mainly RPGs ) and I've always wanted to make my own game too. Also I'm quite curios person and always want to figure out how things works I've started to develop games using Peter software (it's something like game maker). And .. well.. I was bad at it at start But it didn't keep me away from it. On the contrary, I love challenges and I've started to improve myself and later on, I've decided to study programming at high school. I made some simple games like this ones: And after high school I've decided to continue studying programming at university. Well, first two years I was just enjoying students life And third year - I had to make a Bachelor's thesis. So I've decided to make a 3D tower defense game. And thanks to this game I've learned a lot. I've written it in C++ and OGRE3D engine (which is in my opinion more difficult than developing in Unity), and also I've started to learn how to model and animate 3D models. It had a great success and after that I've recieved an offer from small indie team to become a member. I've accepted it and started to help them with their MMORPG game. And that was the moment when I started to use Unity. At first I was thinking that Unity is really simple engine, I've made some simple tetris game for them and after that I've started to work on this game. I've worked on it alone and I took it as my personal project, but also I had time to help my team and made some animations or scripts for them. After 4 months, I've left the team with a lot of other collegues (dont want to specify why we left). And I've continued in development of this game. Why? Because I like it, I enjoy to see some progress and I hope that this game would have success one day... So that's about it If anyone's interested, here's video from early version of this game (now it looks better I hope ) :
So have a great day everyone, and sorry for this long spam of text Greetings XeRi

Hi guys! I'm Dragan, from Spain, a huge fan from this project and videogames in general! I'm 18 and this year i will start design and development of video games at my university, looking forward to create/participate in projects like this one, an incredible work for only 1 person! I'm a gamer of PC and PS3 and my favourite games at the moment are GTA saga, League of Legends and The witcher 3.... and The Grail I play video games since 10 y.o. i think, back then i started with gameboy advance, moving to psp, and later pc, ps3 etc... I've always wanted to create my own game, and this summer i'm trying to learn some of c++ programming (very basic). About The Grail: I found the game via youtube, while searching on how to create a unity 3d game I love that the game is in the medieval scene, because there aren' t a lot of games about it and with many possibilities to develop it. I think this game has alot of potential and excited to see more features coming out soon! Sry for bad english :S Dragan

Hello Dragan, thank you for your interest in this game! It's also always nice to see fellow developer, even when you are just starting to learn how to code. I hope everything will go well with your game!! And stay tuned for new updates! I have already made a good progress since last video and I'm planning to record it very soon. Thanks again and have a good day!

Hello Dragan! Glad to see you on the forums.
Like XeRi said, it's nice to see another developer joining the forums, I wish you the best of luck learning C++ don't give up on it, it will be worth it eventually! The community is still relatively small, more people should join as the game is being developed. If you have any questions regarding the game or something else, don't hesitate to ask for questions.
Best Regards, Dylan
