A brief background of the birth of “Projects Showcase” Section

Kronnect’s “Projects Showcase” section is a curated collection of top projects created by indie game developers who have used Kronnect’s assets in their game development. This section is a valuable resource for game developers who want to see how Kronnect’s assets can be used to create stunning visual effects and frameworks, and gain inspiration for their own projects. They represent some of the best examples of what can be achieved with our tools and serve as a testament to the quality and versatility that they have. Gigaya, Praey for the Gods, Falling Frontier, Death Carnival, and Arctic Awakening are some of the top projects featured in this section.

Game development is a complex and time-consuming process, and for indie developers who may have limited resources, it can be even more challenging. That’s where pre-made assets come in. Using pre-made assets can help reduce development time and costs, while still providing access to high-quality assets that would otherwise be difficult or expensive to create from scratch.

Overview of Indie Game Development

Indie game development refers to the process of creating video games by independent developers or small game development studios without the backing of a major publisher. Indie game development has become increasingly popular in recent years, thanks to the proliferation of game development tools, digital distribution platforms, and the rise of crowdfunding and other alternative funding models.

This process can be challenging and time-consuming, especially for developers working independently or with a small team. One of the main challenges of indie game development is the need for more resources, including funding, equipment, and access to specialized talent. Indie developers often have to wear multiple hats and take on various roles to complete their projects, which can be overwhelming and lead to burnout.

Another challenge is the competitive nature of the video game industry. With so many games being released every day, it can take time for indie developers to get noticed and attract a large audience. Marketing and promotion are critical for indie game developers, but these activities can be time-consuming and require additional resources.

Importance of Useful Assets in Indie Game Development

One way that indie developers can reduce the challenges of game development is by utilizing valuable assets, such as those offered by Kronnect. Assets like lighting and shadowing systems, terrain tools, particle effects, and more can help indie developers save time and resources while still creating high-quality visuals and functionality. These assets can also be customized to fit the specific needs of a game, allowing indie developers to create unique and engaging gameplay experiences without the need for specialized talent or equipment.

The Top Projects

Here are the top projects featured in the Projects Showcase:

Among the tools used to bring this excellent sample project to life, Volumetric Fog & Mist 2 has played an essential part in the immersive aspect of the projects, not only giving depth and realism to the overall world but also to specific details of the project, thanks to the volume system.
