Many video games have been a source of inspiration

For more information about Jagex's publishing of RuneScape gold This Means Warp, we asked Outlier Games' founders Paul Froggatt and Matt Rathbun, and Lead Product Director for Jagex Robert Fox-Galassi about their thoughts about the new partnership.

Much like many indie developers our beginnings in the games industry began by experimenting with game concepts and programming over many years before finally creating something playable!

I've had 10 years of experience at Google before I decided to move into gaming full-time. Matt's experience spans the creation of Hollywood computer systems on movie sets, a stint with South Korean esports and mobile game development. We're so excited to share what we've created with This Means Warp.

Many video games have been a source of inspiration for aspiring developers to develop their own. But it's rare to have an original piece of work taken over by the company that made the original title.

This, however, was not the case with Brendan Malcolm, the one-man team at Australian developer Games By Malcs, whose idle RPG Melvor Idle has been published by Jagex which is the developer of RuneScape -- a game that was at the core of Malcolm's motive behind his own venture.

Melvor Idle strips away Buy OSRS gold the visuals and 3D environments of RuneScape and other similar MMOs and reduces it into a simple idle-type game in which players can manage their skills, inventory , and quests. Activating combat encounters and winning earns XP and loot, which can be placed into the upgrade tree players prefer, and repeating activities such as crafting or cutting wood has their own rewards.
