I have much to say, so bear with me. You'll be enlightened.

There is much confusion as to how the work is divided up between ZolarKeth and I when it comes to working on Apocalypse Rising.

A lot of people assume that I am the sole creator of Apocalypse Rising. Some people assume that ZolarKeth merely assists me. Then there are those few who understand how dire ZolarKeth's work is to the advancement of Apocalypse Rising.

Contrary to popular belief, ZolarKeth is the sole scripter of Apocalypse Rising. He is the one behind every single line of code that makes Apocalypse Rising as great as it is. You should most certainly thank him for his work, as it is his optimizations that have allowed many players to set foot into the game without lagging and crashing. ZolarKeth is not only credited for the code behind Apocalypse Rising, but nearly every decal or thumbnail within the game as well. He has proven to be as effective at designing graphics as he is scripting. In case you didn't know, ZolarKeth is also the mastermind behind the gorgeous thumbnails for the game.

As for my role in the development of the game, I call myself the "Designer" of Apocalypse Rising because I'm the one managing the additions and updates that have brought Apocalypse Rising so far. Any new content that is injected into Apocalypse Rising is overseen by me. Apocalypse Rising is balanced to be fair and engaging, and my management skills allow me to keep it that way. I am also responsible for all of the models within Apocalypse Rising. I wish I could exert my true potential in this area, but the performance of the game would suffer if I put such work into the architecture of Apocalypse Rising. Perhaps in the future, the models of Apocalypse Rising will shine much more than they do now.

Though my eyes, ZolarKeth's skills in programming and graphics design are far more important than my eye for balancing or my skill in modeling. But perhaps I shouldn't sell myself short?



Apocalypse Rising is a great game because both of us are developing it. This isn't a question of "Who does the most work," or "Who has more skill". Apocalypse Rising would never, ever, be the way it is today if one of us didn't put our heart into it. The simple fact that both of us are working to achieve a common goal is what makes the content in Apocalypse Rising so flawless.

Having someone to discuss ideas with, balance systems, show off progress, or to just talk to, improves the quality of one's work incredibly. I guarantee that both ZolarKeth or I wouldn't have accomplished half of what we have on our own. But with eachother's support, we can achieve great things.

With the Featherweight update approaching, Keth's revolutionary vehicle system and my sleek vehicle models will soon be scattered across Apocalypse Rising ready for the [repairing, and then] taking.

Thanks for reading.

The featherweight update is an optimization to the rendering of bricks. Theoretically this Roblox update will increase performance ten times on some games.

I would like to say thank you for putting your hearts and souls into the game, your both extraordinary people that turned a game from DayZ into the best Roblox game there is. Also with this topic brought up, why not make a Apocalypse Rising Group, a group that helps with some of the buildings/scriptings to help take the load off of what we the players want off of your back and hopefully let some other people do the editing. (Pretty much like a working corporation)

Again Thank you for putting both of your hard works into this game and I'm glad it turned out the way it did.

You and Zolarketh are both important to Apocalypse Rising. I understood that Zolarketh scripted your games but not the designing so good to know his now.

I have ideas for the game but you are both probably busy getting your own idea's finished.

Add group chats, so if you are in the group you may just talk to them.
Add places which can be captured by certain group like Flags. These will be for bases that people want to control with there group.

I really like your GUS and they impress me alot. Keep it up Gusmanak & Zolarketh!

They said the group update need to be first or people would just drive and avoid people. I'm sure there will be vehicles soon.

Hey Gus, about the vehicles. Would it be possible to add damage for running people over? Like a bit of damage to the vehicle and maybe death for the unlucky individual.
