Worked on Starbound, PVKII, and now Voxelnauts on Kickstarter. Critique me 3D?

Thank you Polycount has been my home, since I first started 3D modelling when I was about 11 years old. I believe I joined soon after, while I was working on the Mastersword Half Life mod. Good memories here, it's so nostalgic anymore that even the layout of Polycount is still the same

I really like the feeling this has to it, somewhat reminds me of a retro jrpg meeting something minecraft-ish. Lovely.

Thank you! Totally the inspiration for it. I looked over literally every sprite database I could find, and studied all the tiles art that fit into a Minecraft space. I learned much in patterns and their variations, along with the best ways to shade and account for light in the realtime raytracing engine.

*bows* Being in VR is truly somewhere else

Most definitely. The engine is capable of rendering voxels at any resolution (on a per-object basis), and the worldblocks also (as a whole for the planet).

Our prototype world is using 16x16x16 matrices.

Zephir62: I think it was worth the effort!

Sorry if this was answered already but will this be only playable with an VR-Headset? Feels like a game my sister would LOVE to play and a "minecraft-ish" that I'd also like to play!

The game is VR-enabled, but never a necessity!

Thank you!
