Cleaning up a design and working with layered animations
Hello again, everyone.
This week has been similar to the last, my work has been quite spread out and I’ve been working on both our player fish’s final design, and some misc. background assets. Given how extensive my first two blog posts were regarding my animation process, I don’t have anything too revolutionary to go through today. Nevertheless, I thought I’d once again go through a part of my process of creating an animation, as well as going back and touching […]

Rotating & vanishing Guards
Okay! This week has been a very interesting one! I have been further working on our level design and have been adding in rotations to our stationary guards. I also had to remake all of the patrolling patterns for our guards since there was some issues with how the guards spawned in comparison to where they wanted to patrol. I solved the patrolling guard issue quite easily, it was just a bit of tedious work on it to get […]

The Loneliness of the Long Distance Running Guard
This time around, I present you with the grand première of nameless guard #2, although I guess he would be more of an agent than a regular guard.
At any rate he’s got a fancy fedora and a differently coloured jacked showing a minor attempt at highlights, ‘course those highlights proved to be way too subtle for this resolution, but still being rather inexperienced with sprite sheets I didn’t really want to risk going too strong and having to spend […]

10 Week Project – Post 4 – Run Forrest!
Last time I wrote about how to introduce walking and the challenges with that and now it’s time for the mechanic introduction I have been dreading: Sprinting.
As I keep on mentioning in my posts is that we want a minimal HUD and as little pop-ups of information as possible and the reasoning behind that is to distract the player as little as possible and give the player a feeling as they have figured it all out be themselves. […]

Altars done!
Hello again! This week I’ve been working with the Altar and it took a lot longer than I thought. I had a early version of the altar ready that I was working with a bit last week, but it I later noticed this week that the whole perspective of the altar was wrong. This problem was not something that could be fixed with some tweaks, so I had to remake the whole thing.
The sketches I made of the altar.
I […]

Project Haunted Light 14-03-05
Last week I spent time working on the main menu for Haunted light, the game me and my group have been working on for some time now. The main menu is going to be rather dark, with a lit candle in the middle that lights up the screen. In the game, the player has a candle, which is their only light source, and the only light source in the game making it rather important, which is why we chose to […]

Project Report 2014-03-05
Thought I’d delve into the finer details of a specific map I’ve been working on this week which is intended to be the very first room of the game where the player is introduced to the two main enemies of the game. The first level is probably the most important part of almost any game, as it’s how the player is first introduced to its elements and features. It is here that you establish a communication between the player and […]

Game Project – Static objects and another tree
For this weeks post im gonna talk about the finalizing the lost souls animation, static objects for the game and a background object with a tree.
So first im gonna talk about the lost soul animation. I have added color, shadow and highlights to it. I chose light blue as it makes it feel like something that is a little depressed and lonely and it will show good against the green foreground that you walk on. It also differs a lot […]
