With rumors popping up as early as 2007 and then being widespread at 2008, Mechscape had a lot of attention but not a lot of success. The project was dropped just months before the date of its release. Costing Jagex a heavy sum of bills. “Sadly the game was not as complete as we wanted” Said Mark Gerhard. And with that Mechscape was paved over to make room for Stellar Dawn.

This is a show of dedication by Jagex, that money really isn’t what is most important. They wanted to make a game that was fun for its players. “It would be better to go back to the founding principles and build the game we always wanted.” Andrew himself is now working closely with the Stellar Dawn team on this new project.

“Not all was lost as we naturally have developed the game engine substantially over the last few years and the new designs benefits massively from this as well as a ton of experience within the team as to what works and what doesn’t.” Said Mark Gerhard. Clarifying to his players that Stellar Dawn will be the game that was promised.
