Solo Game Platformer



So my idea for a solo game is starting to come to life. Today has had me mainly set on getting the core sprites done for the game. The game is a 2D-Platformer in a wasteland city that has been took over by toxic gas all around. The player will have to collect items to advance to the next stage for each of the stages. After five stages you will fight a boss that boss will try and destroy the ground from underneath you.

The sprites I have been trying to get done so far is the collectible in each of the levels which I may still change if I want to put the collectibles on a rotation for some of the levels so its not just the same item over and over again. The first idea I had for the collectible was a toxic cannister which looks like this:


I am still indecisive on the final design for this and especially if I want multiple collectibles that you can get throughout the game.

The next sprite that I will be working on will be the player sprite which is becoming a issue to me because I want the general outcome of the game to look arcade like or pixel art which when I decide will change what sprites and backgrounds I have done already because if I go for the pixel art type of style then I want everything more square. However my mind is little more towards pixel art because I haven't really messed around with making a game that has a pixel art style.

I am happy with the type of game because the majority of games I have done so far have mainly been more up to date like horror and generic fighting games so it is going to be nice to have so form of old school style games in my portfolio as well.

Updates are coming soon including more sneak peeks at sprites and the level designs.

Model [Doomhammer Model]

So today we decided to do some more 3d modeling. The models could be of anything we like of any genre so I decided that because I have played World of Warcraft in the past and it is a game I enjoy I decided to model one of the weapons in the game. The weapon i chose was Doomhammer which happens to be very nice model and has some nice detail in the model. The picture I chose to help: As you can tell the model looks quite difficult however a lot of the detail in the model can just be done with texturing the only part I could worry about or just not have on the model is the cloth above the hilt that sticks out but we shall see what happens when it comes to me texturing the model. My model so far: The shape of my model is looking very similar to what the original looks like and I am enjoying making the model as this is definitely developing my skills in 3ds max as well as texturing. I will be updating this post with every time the model is updated.

Synoptic Project Update

Since the last post the group has managed to fix the communication issues we had by coming together and having a group meeting in which we discussed the issues we have been having as a group and making sure we sorted them as soon as possible because we are not that far away from the deadline for this project so this is the time where we can't really have anyone doing just nothing as we need to get the environment done. We made sure everyone has a job to do. My personal update is that after we had the team meeting I have managed to figure out what is needing to be done and what I personally have to do in this project, so now that I know what I need to do I have sorted the issue of me feeling like I was getting left behind as some of the group continued to just do the project themselves instead of communicating with the rest of us to get this fixed. I have still been modeling a few models to go into the environment in which yesterday and today I have been working on some machiner...
