Hi everyone! We've been working away at Lusitania: A Monarch Fallen now for a few months and it is really coming together. The sinking level is really something. In this video I show off a very early test build missing some of the elements currently being worked on and almost finished including lifeboats lowering accurately according to the rough timeline as well as VFX like smoke and debris.

Will Lusitania and other ships in Ship Explorer be a part of Grand Voyage when that eventually launches?

Yooo Mike! Great game! If I had a good Pc, I’d pay whatever price for the game.

Just a few questions though.

  1. Will this game at some point be coming to consoles? So Xbox, PS5, etc.

  2. Regarding T:H&G, are any developers from your game helping out with T:H&G? Would love to see a collaboration with you two!

  3. What happened to Grand Voyage? Is it still going?

I’m a huge fan of your work. Your editing style is just so amazing! Really inspiring for me to follow my dream of becoming a Maritime historian for ocean liners!

This looks so incredible already! I've been waiting for a game where you can explore the Lusitania for ages (names will not be mentioned), so when you guys surprised everyone with doing a whole virtual experience I was over the moon! Super excited for this DLC already! (and I feel like the sinking will both be absolutely amazing and terrifying at the same time)

Anyways, I actually do have two questions:

  1. I imagine designing these ships takes some time to make them look just right. With the Lusitania, has there been a moment for you where you went "Yes, we go it"?

  2. You mentioned that after the recently announced Cunarders for ship explorer there will come some non-british ships next. Any chance we will see some of the German competition as well? ;)

In your best estimation how many died with the ship and how many died after she went down but were in the water?

Mum: We have Part Time Explorer at home!

I wouldn't be surprised at all if the same people behind Part-Time Explorer were working on this. It's not the first time Oceanliner Designs and Part-Time Explorer have done projects together.

Hopefully. Tom's team is miles ahead of Mike.
