To be honest @Fabi_G , I haven't really given that a proper consideration. The inspiration for the game started probably waaay back when I first played Morrowind. I always played archer builds (same in subsequent elder scrolls games) but I wasn't completely happy with how it worked in those games. Later there was Demon…
First steps of the harpy taken care of. A basic model with focus mostly just on silhouette, and a rig. Animations over the next few days, and I probably wont bother with textures and refining the model until after the level art is completed. It seems much easier to make decisions about the design of characters after having…
gonna go through with pitch deck and vertical slice demo. I just design the pitchdeck so what art I make for it can be reused. Begun a 2d artwork that will be kind of like a movie poster with a bunch of characters and enemies on it. Today I settled on the composition and color and started blocking in. its a big painting so…
Tested out maya live link with unreal and it's pretty good to be able to preview animations in real time. But feedback is a bit choppy so its really only good for blocking in. Little details don't read at all. Not sure if it really speeds things up or not, but definitely nice to get some immediate feedback. Character…
I enjoyed it all, i am not like others with these sexiest situations, it is what it is, but i guess to be more along the lines of "decency", i suppose i can see someone somewhere having an issue with it, i thought it was hardly noticeable. The drop kick would be cool to see ass some sort of random attack? rng based. I…
a lot of work done on the character controller but probably still a few more days to complete its overhaul. notably, I changed the dive from root motion to act more like traditional jump. it consist of three separate animations, a begin, a looping middle, and an end. This way the distance of the jump can be configurable…
some WIP on this one. taking some time to experiment with design of the gorgon character. decided to remove extra arms. made overall slimmer and gave colors similar to a king cobra rather than teal. Couldn't get her face to something I liked so for now I consider a shawl. But not totally in love with her design yet. I…
@iam717 thanks for the great feedback I agree about the enemy satyrs having a short range attack. There is code for that and if they run into you while jumping it causes damage, but I haven't made animation for it yet. my original idea was they do like a kangaroo drop kick with both hooves. Agreed about the jumping being…
Past few days been animating like crazy but it's not stuff I will show because spoilers, just a snippet. I have been working on cut scenes that happen before and after boss battle. The only reason I do this now is because the student doing music (for his final project) needs to have something to show along with the tracks…
@zetheros I've done that already - the planning. What you've described is kind of where I am right now - developing the assembly line by conducting research and doing experiments. Along with that I am also iterating on game design, starting from the master plan and trying to verify that all of it makes sense in practice.…
