- Пародия на олдскул: Обзор Phantom Fury - 29 April 2024
Тренд на олдскульные шутеры для бумеров не утихает. С момента выхода DUSK , вернувшего интерес к жанру, восставшая из пепла студия 3D Realms активно осваивает данную нишу, параллельно выпуская ремастеры классики. Вот только результат оказался несколько неоднозначным.
- Phantom Fury review: a retro shooter obsessed with inconsequential do-hickeys - 26 April 2024
Hurtling along on top of a train full of goons in Phantom Fury you will see another rushing train pulling up at matching speed, inviting you to hop from one to the other. A helicopter will soon join the fray. Many things will soon explode, and you will take a short break from the minigunning to calmly physics some boxes into a set of steps with a crane. This FPS is not so much writing a love letter to a bygone era of noughties shooters, as it is standing underneath the window of its respected elders earnestly serenading them with a busted old keytar from the attic. There are bum notes and the singing voice is not exactly boy-band beautiful, but the love is unmistakably there. And, hey, singing is hard. Read more

- Phantom Fury - Dev Blog #6: "Designing the Minigun" by Gustaw Mackay - 26 December 2023
Hey there! I'm Gustaw Mackay, a 3D artist working on Phantom Fury. My focus on Phantom Fury is creating weapons and vehicles in the game, I've also had the chance to work on larger environmental elements and smaller props. In this dev blog, I'll take you through the journey of creating the in-game Minigun model, including all the different design iterations it went through. So, let's dive in and explore the exciting process behind bringing this powerful weapon to life! Step 1: Concept Art Creating concept art is the first step in developing an important asset like the minigun. In our team, concept artists collaborate with everyone and gather feedback from all team members. They usually sketch multiple ideas, and one is chosen and refined through several iterations before the modeling process starts. The concept artist created four different variations of the Minigun, and the team discus…

- Phantom Fury - Dev Blog #5: "City in a Garden" by Jacob and Willem - 23 August 2023
SHRINKING A METROPOLIS Hello and welcome to the 5th Dev Blog of Phantom Fury! My name is Jacob Østergaard and I’m a Senior Level Designer at Slipgate Ironworks in Aalborg, Denmark. Today we will focus on the creation of our hero level Chicago, which we have set ablaze! Chicago on fire. While we will go over select elements of the level in this dev blog, we won’t be revealing it all as we would like to save some for later and for you all to experience yourselves. We wanted it to retain certain hallmarks of the real Chicago city while also being heavily modified to fit our visual style and flow. Said hallmarks would be elements like: The Chicago River and the many bridges The Navy Pier The Marina City towers Iconic parts of Wacker Drive And other recognizable buildings from Chicago Downtown Chicago. But, like mentioned before, we wouldn’t want to make a copy of those hallmarks but rather…

- Phantom Fury - Dev Blog #3: "Making the World Come Alive" by Sam - 28 April 2023
Greetings, My name is Samuel ‘Samuel2213’ Bryan. My role on the Phantom Fury team is 3D Lead and overall 3D Generalist. I handle environment art, scripting, lighting, characters, props and a bit of level design, which is about as ‘Generalist’ as you can get. I’ve worked on a number of projects: primarily ULTRAKILL, Graven, and Wrath. I’ve also worked in all kinds of various art styles, usually in AA, indie and mod projects, but Phantom Fury is by far the project I’m currently the most deeply involved in. Phantom Fury is a project that everyone on the team is extremely passionate about, and not only on the raw gameplay front. Having a fun shooter is incredibly important, but you can not underestimate the importance of providing the player plenty to do and look at outside of combat. In this regard, all the various teams within the project work closely together to focus on immersing the pl…
- Phantom Fury - Dev Blog #2: "The Music" by Aleks Kmiec - 24 March 2023
Hello everyone! My name is Aleksander Kmiec, and I have had the tremendous privilege of composing the official soundtrack to Phantom Fury. I was brought onto the project by my good friend and fellow composer Michael Markie back in early 2021, and it was he who envisioned the distinct identity of the OST. The goal was to aim for a unique blend of synth and symphonic - the bold and bombastic energy of an action film with a healthy dose of saturated electronic tones and pulses. A lot of you will probably pick up on the influences of Alexander Brandon, Michael McCann, and Sascha Dikiciyan, as their work on the Deus Ex OSTs were a big part of my listening rotation for several months. However, it was Ludwig Göransson and his work on the film Tenet that inspired us most. There is a cold, dour, and bitter tone to his music that really spoke to me - I wanted to try and strike a balance between t…
