Always exited when I see updates :) So cool to see the creatures moving. Digging the update you did on the Heroes and the scenery is looking lush as well. Keep it up! :+1:
Minoan hero character. really happy with this guy. some finishing details left to do, but calling it good enough for now. May end up with a spear for gameplay purposes but if I can make the axe work I'll use that instead. Also been getting some help from @Fabi_G who made these characters, which I think are achieving the…
thanks @iam717 that's one of my favorites so far. Fabian has made some improvements for the Persian hero. My original model is on the left for comparison. And some more polish on the Nubian hero as well. The Nubian will be the playable character for the Steam NextFest demo that I try to have ready at October. If I don't…
okay two more days to get the amazons controller finished. This is the most complicated one and serves as a template for the remaining ones. It is mostly the same as the prototype one, though under the hood its cleaner code, all nicely standardized so doing the other heroes' controllers will be pretty mindless work,…
Okay todays task was rig for the amazon and then her key poses, but I decided to go ahead and do some updates to the model that I had in the back of my mind. Perhaps I wasted time though, feel pretty undecided whether or not this change should be used. I made her more like the famous statues of amazons. The previous…
okay a couple things got locomotion started for the kusarikku. I love this guy. i've realized that doing so much animations for so many hours, i tend to get tunnel vision and lose ability to critique my work usefully. I think its better if i just get a quick job done and then review it a couple days later. These animations…
got the diegetic ammo display done. also note how bad the spartans animation is. Actually the posing I am fine with, but its way too fast. Hard to know if its right until its in the game. But timing ultimately depends on what works best for gameplay, so even though it looks awful right now and I want to change it, I'll…
Next illustration (in progress): this depicts one of the planned boss fights. A snake charmer and his cobra. But the cobra is a gorgon. There is also to be an army of normal cobras for gameplay purposes, but for this illustration I couldnt find a way to include the cobra army plus the charmer plus the gorgon and the hero…
Okay finished an experiment to go for more stylization with the characters. I built a new model for the main hero character. This time I only did basic low poly modeling and just flat colors for materials. Just push and pull vertices in maya, no sculpting or complicated workflow. The minotaur model is the original sculpt…
Had to take a break from the enviro stuff my hands were hurting from it, so I knocked out a bunch of short coding task and also made a few additional outfits for hero, in addition to improving the textures. Will be working on second pass at enemy character models and then animations in coming weeks before finishing out…
