I was a designer on Dune 2. Virgin gave the license to both Cryo and Westwood at the same time. They did not tell either company at the time. Cryo ended up getting the original Dune title because they were going to release first and it was based on the book. Dune 2 was built on a game engine developed by Joe Bostic. It was originally going to be a game much more like C&C called, Army Men. Everyone at Westwood was a big fan of Herzog's Zwei. Originally there were supposed to be six houses in Dune 2. All of the additional houses came from the Dune Encyclopedia. The book, The Dune Encyclopedia was provided by a guy named Wesley Kelso who was friends with many of the Westwood employees. As a reward for donating the book, Wesley "Wently" Kelso is a fictional NPC in Eye of the Behold 1 & 2. The artist for Dune 2 was Rick Parks who was a legend in the CG world of Amiga and PC. The game was developed on an Amiga system and the 3D graphics were done in Lightwave.
Oh wow! Thanks for watching and sharing the info!!!
Was the team happy with the decision to go with a licensed IP when it came down?
@@DrUrsa88 Yea .. we were thrilled. We were all Dune fans.
That is great! Thank you and the team for your effort!!!
I absolutely loved Dune and Dune II. As a young teenager it was really mind-blowing at that time.
There is a new Dune game coming up?
Yes, please!
Cheers for the heads up, friend.
It actually looks like it could be fun as well! I need to dig a bit deeper, but I am slightly excited.
Thanks for watching!!!
I’m cautiously optimistic about Dune Awakening. Not sure it’ll capture exactly what I’m looking for in a Dune experience. I want fluid melee combat, the ability to ride sandworms, and the use of either the voice or prescience.
Dune 2000 was awesome, I played the shit out of it on the ps1
Dune: Spice Wars. Just go to the review section and you will find out why there won't be any real Dune games. The fanbase is too spectrum to evaluate anything rationally. It's essentially the 40k audience but even further down the spectrum.
