Game environment in a student made game engine

Slapunas

Hi Polycount! I just finished working on my Honours project which was a Steampunk styled game environment assembled in custom engine made by another Student.

At the moment I am working on my evaluation and would appreciate any type of feedback or criticism.

Thanks for your input! For those who want to be SUPER helpful, you can leave me more feedback here http://goo.gl/forms/dv9DfyifvM so I could use it directly in my dissertation Thanks a lot!!!

You have some good stuff going on.

Probably the engine's limitation, it has no material definition, like all color map. Making everything looking out-dated. Your individual shots do show some definition tho so that's good.

The weathering of your pieces don't quite make sense to me. Take the Steam Engine for example. What you have looks like an oily grimes. However that specific engine doesn't seem to need oil since it has no moving parts. I'd take a look at something like this as reference instead. Dust, wear, tear and rust are probably what I would be expecting from it.

I like this man, has a nice bioshick feel to it.

The individual stuff is awesome, all together it feels dull. Probably an engine limitation like direwolf said.

Great stuff man

Good texturing and modelling skills, but yea, best to compose them into something else like Unreal 4, Unity or CryENGINE.

Super thanks for the feedback guys! I agree with the necessity to transfer this scene into the UE4 to make a portfolio piece. Using a student made engine was a part of my honours as the other guy was working on the engine as his honours and we sort of collaborated in that sense.

@Direwolf - Thanks for your input man, just about the texturing example, I am pretty sure you linked the same steam engine in the reference you wanted to show :}.
