Hey guys, check out the adventure game I'm working on for Billygoat!
polycounter lvl 9
Hey guys, for the past 2 years or so, I've been working for a local Northern Irish studio called Billygoat, working mostly on a game called "Her Majesty's Spiffing."
The game is a fully 3d unity based point and click adventure game with a silly british humour vibe. Think monty python/red drawf/sci fi spoof nonsense and you should get the gist! it's got a stylised art style with a sort of wallace and grommit feel to the characters.
I'd personally love to know what you guys think of the art, because I'm basically the sole 3D person working on it, and it's sometimes hard to know if something looks good or fits in well with the other art, especially as previous to working for these guys, I hadn't really done any stylised, hand painted characters before. You can see some of the characters on my website here and there's way more in the demo.
Basically we're trying to get a kickstarter going, you can check it out HERE, feedback on that would be awesome too, and also there's a demo you can check out HERE. It's a pretty early demo, a lot of the functionality is there, but loads of content is absent, namely the puzzles and art. If you have 10 minutes, give it a download and let me know what you think.
Thanks guys, it means a lot

Good to see that you guys are still working on the game.
You guys made our small polycount meeting back in Gamescom a total blast. (I'm the Argentinian dude.)
Turns out William bought me a Kolsch, that fine gentleman, so send him my thanks! Didn't even realize that until you guys were gone :{
The project looks fantastic, so keep up the good work m8!
Only crit I have is the characters have a surprised expression as their default pose. The bottom of the upper eyelid is above the iris and the eyebrows are raised most of the time. A more relaxed expression would be more appropriate.
Great work though, it's looking like a winner already.
Kwarmm, makkon: thanks a lot guys
Ryan b: yea didn't spend enough time placing eyeballs, but don't worry, all will be fixed by the animator, I promise!
Well done!
Looks like a well put together IP you guys have. And the game is coming along nicely. Good work!
You bet!
Next year, I'm buying you all a pint and some shitty German pizza.
Then we'll sit by the Rhine and do a Dota LAN party.
