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,…
feel like i've learned a lot about animation in past few days, wanted to jot down a few notes - adding eye animation makes big difference it seems. even on low res gifs i think it does a lot to bring the characters to life. The satyr character has ears and tail which also help to add a lot of emotion. For example i do a…
got rig for the persian setup. she swaps between sword/shield mode and bow mode so a few extra controllers for that. She also has some dreadlocks and skirt to be simulated but setting that up is tedious so i do it later and keep knocking out the big things for now. The good thing is that rigs and animations are starting to…
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…
Ah yes, good if such a project aligns with ones interests. Forgot you also wrote that you're interested in animations. Based on my own (small) experiments, I just worry when much weight is on visual/non-gameplay features - will the whole thing die if they can't be realised within budget? But I suppose that's also game…
Like the new environment for the "fight" with the evil ladies, i enjoy seeing the arrows zoom by, they move around better and that hill part was pretty neat, i enjoyed the hiding near debris. Neat to see the project management tools breakdown of days and how you use your modeling application to do more instead of working…
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…
More blockout on the minoa level want to make a few notes about how I plan to tackle this, because making a big level - it's kind of difficult to figure out where to start, and do the work in a way that gives me flexibility in the future as much as possible, but is still quick and productive this is my first major foray…
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…
