2050: The Last Island Demo Homebrew Is Mad Fun
Everyone has to at least check out this excellent piece of underground code, circulating under the title 2050: The Last Island. It’s only a demo right now, and functionality is limited, but fans of games like GTA and other 3D atmospheric shooters and action questers will immediately recognize the proficiency with which this game is implemented.
The game is based on the Quake engine and looks pretty good, even this early in development. Functionality is instantly familiar, and you’ll be running around and doing stuff immediately with no reservations. There’s lots of stuff to do, like go shopping, fight things, make money, and drive around in various fun polygonal vehicles.
A mission is already implemented, so you can explore some of the activities and sequences which will likely fill the game as it expands in development. The creators have been quoted as wanting to build a hybrid of GTA and The Sims, which sounds like an exciting, invigorating idea. So far, the project looks great, and we give its developers a lot of props for taking on such a thorough project. Stay tuned on this one.
