please , talk about the game itself , i want some opinions

Joao Sapiro

what about not linking to another forum man ? just post images etc here directly and people can comment on them more easily

EarthQuake

its really hard to comment on anything there because its poorly presented, and post-processed to hell and back. What am i looking at, the character? If so just post some clean screenshots of him in the bindpose or whatever in your 3d app, with wireframe and texture flats.

J Randall

this is what hes talking about.
3dguru you might want to put some fire retardant clothes on.

not bad from what i can see...the images are too dark/blurry. Get some different renders. Try rendering the character/environments from max with some better lighting to show off your characters, because i cant really crit the character and his creation from what i can see here.(wireframes...texture layouts...concepts...whatever)

ElysiumGX

There needs to be some sort of context to this.

The character looks generic and horrible, and the animation is even worse. The textures are dark, bland, colorless, and uninspired. The lighting is...missing. The logo is nice, but a simple and obvious rip off. The gun appears unfinished and held incorrectly. There appears to be no clear direction, or unique angle to the project.

I'd expect better from Blender.

But if it was for a weekly school assignment, good work.

Right let's add some saturated fire and flaming red text on all titles and logos now...

Besides the obvious needed fixes in the presentation and animation...you should seriously finish building the surroundings so we can get a better idea.

The character itself is missing adequate loops on the joints where it should in order to deform properly (Prolly why looks like he's crippling)...it also almost looks like you just threw in something generated striaght off from Max's teapot button. Finish off the guy first.


I'd definitely get those immediate fixes out of the way before asking for more critiques, obviously there's a lot to touch up.
