What he (and Dinobot) knew it contained was information on how to alter the timeline, to ensure the Great War never ended with Autobot victory.

The Agenda (Part 1) While the Maximals and Predacons held an uneasy peace, the Autobots' victory in the Great War meant that Predacon leadership was subordinate to that of the Maximals Megatron, in particular, saw the Maximals as ruling over the Predacons, treating them as "slaves". The Predacons were the descendants of the Decepticons, led by Tripredacus Council and represented in some sense by the Predacon Alliance.

Whilst softwood decking is the best low-cost choice if you’re on a tight budget, high-quality hardwood decking from a sustainable source can cost around the same as composite decking. Moss makes wood decking slippery and dangerous, and will also contribute to rot. You’ll be fighting a losing battle if you lay timber decking under large trees or in damp areas of the garden, because moss will take hold. Not to mention the time and ability it requires to keep wood decking looking good, If you’re not a natural DIYer and want to spent time enjoying your outdoor space rather than maintaining it, perhaps wood decking isn’t the first choice for you. ![]() Although it’s a cheaper initial outlay, the cost of preservative treatments can add up. This is the main drawback with wood decking. (Image credit: Future PLC ) Wood decking - The Cons 1. So if your outdoor space is south facing, and you experience intense summer temperatures, wood decking might be the sensible choice. Wood decking feels comfortable even on the hottest days, whilst composite decking can become too warm to walk on comfortably, for humans and pets. Scratches on composite decking, in comparison, are difficult to deal with as you can’t sand down a composite deck to deal with superficial damage. If damage occurs to wood decking, it’s easily to repair a patch, or replace a board. ![]() ![]() 'Wood decking tends to offer a more natural look as it offers the warmth which composite decking potentially lacks,' says Nick Whiley, project director at decking company Trekker Global 'Wood decking can also be sanded and stained in a variety of colours and finishes.' 3. It’s easier to lay too, says Leigh Barnes, retail sales manager at Jacksons Fencing, so will cost less in time and money to fit: 'Cuts can be made easily and smoothed to make perfect edges, which means you are able to fit the deck to the garden and be more flexible with the installation, and any hurdles it may bring.' 2. Wood decking costs less than composite, so if you decide to re-landscape your garden you won’t feel as guilty ripping it up and starting again. ![]() ![]() ![]() The channel is known for promoting falsehoods and conspiracy theories.

Well, in the beginning, the game was supposed to look like Quake 3. I very often try to approach many problems analytically – and try to solve art as a problem – maybe sometimes this isn’t a good approach, but that’s my approach. I feel closer to this than creating something. Thank you! First of all, I don’t consider myself an artist. Could you talk about the influences you’ve taken in developing the game? Artistic influences as well as gameplay? It was on the new and trending steam charts. However, Kornel had already started work on the game.Ĭongratulations by the way on the success of Jupiter Hell and its release recently. We started development officially in 2015. He had the idea that why not create something similar and make money with it – he wasn’t able to sell it as Doom wasn’t his IP.Īfter quitting his previous company, he contacted me and asked me to join his team to develop Jupiter Hell. DoomRL is the earlier project of Kornel Kisielewicz, he was working on it part-time just for fun, and it took off! People liked it and start working on it for years. Just to let our readers know, DoomRL is the precursor to Jupiter Hell, right? None of the games really became famous, but one very fortunate thing that came out of working there was at some point Kornel (Kornel Kisielewicz, founder of ChaosForge) was hired behind DoomRL, and basically the idea-man behind Jupiter Hell. The company then transitioned into 3D games. Slowly throughout the years, I kept going up the ranks. The place I worked at developed primarily in mobile games. I went there, took a test, and they hired me as a graphic artist. Eventually, I was contacted by an employer letting me know if I was interested in working. One of my works became art of the day – which gave me validation to continue. In Poland, we have our own version of Deviant Art, where I posted my demoscene 2d art and other work that I was creating. I was creating art for the demoscene, and I was getting better and better from taking harsh criticism at that time, I discovered that this isn’t the only avenue and the demoscene isn’t the only place to share art. How did you transition from putting up your work on the internet to landing a job in the gaming industry? To be able to rotate models and see all angles was quite interesting for me. Well, you kind of have to invest a gigantic amount of time into drawing to be exceptionally good and I was never that good – thankfully I discovered 3D (modelling), which I gravitated towards. That’s around the time I stopped doing digital paintings too. So, after joining the Polish Demoscene, I started submitting my digital paintings there and took part in some world-wide competitions. During the 80s and the 90s, it was a very popular sub-culture where people would create art on computers, from full-fledged game demo to concept and pixel art. Eventually, I started posting my art on forums.Īround that time, a friend of mine had introduced me to something called the Demoscene. I got better and better, from paint to photoshop. At some point, I got a computer and started creating digital art instead of just drawing on a paper. Well, I’ve always been interested in and have created “art” since I was a child. First of all, can you tell us how you got into the games industry? What is your journey like? Hi Lukasz! Thank you for taking out the time to talk with us. We caught up with the lead artist of Jupiter Hell Lukasz Śliwiński to talk about how he got into games development, his influences, Jupiter Hell and its key art and gameplay inspirations, as well as what’s next for Lukasz and the team at ChaosForge. The game has garnered quite the following, recently reaching the Steam New and Trending chart. Ever wonder what would the love-child of Doom and XCOM be? The answer is Jupiter Hell – a turn-based top-down strategy game developed by ChaosForge, an indie developer based in Poland. ![]() ![]() Though weird and wacky marketing creations such as these can quickly go viral, they’re met with mixed reactions from consumers and social media managers alike.
