Hello?? Can anyone see this. I know once its posted I will not as Eircom refuses to fix my line and this is devouring my credit on my phone like a dodongo eating bombs. Yes that will work into a turn around back into gaming talk. Now I have been busy lately not only modelling more models then you can shake a stick at but don't sticks are a rare commodity in the future. I have also been animating the boss character for the first big battle and boy it is fun He will have a full set of 14 animations with variants of a few making it a total of 16 most likely. It is time consuming and again no web for reference its a slow process. Many Hats It is true. Owning a company means you have to wear many hats and I have been going through many a hat. I have been in meeting's all over the shop. Calls to prospective clients and emailing more people then I can remember the name of. Creating official Burn Bright Game letter heads for invoices client contracts and just letters. But I love it all! Everyday the company is getting more and more progress and its a very exciting but scary feeling as it feels like we are now out on our own and not only making a name for our selves but making a better name for the Irish industry as a whole and we hope to be adding to the good. Soon we should have news in the future doings of the company but for now its all hush hush. Nudge nudge wink wink. Sorry about the lack of pictures and stuff in the blog this week, but imagination is a strong thing and its time to stretch yours reading this blog. Even the one picture i have is in black and white reflecting the usefulness of eircom. Hopefully I will be back up and running later this week for sunday musings and will post all the pictures. ahoy hoy! Welcome to another personal blog by me. Its been a cold cold week and signs point to colder weather ahead. Luckily the fire temple is nearly out of the way and the next temple is started. We have started white boxing the next temple this week and it is coming along very nicely with puzzles and combat galore. New mechanics that will require the player to learn from the environment to progress and use the powers acquired to progress. Why mention the weather in a post about what is going on. Well it actually will tie in as the next temple is dedicated to the element of Air and the higher you go the more ice and cold winds will blow and freeze your soul. The cold winds will have an actual effect on the world and the player the higher you go. But apart from that I am keeping warm with my new coffee machine I got making my self chococino's and latte's. Also making lava makes me feel warmer I have been making a shader yesterday that has the capability of getting masked to create holes in flowing lava and masks that create dried up crust. It is also emissive and has the capability to move and rotate with the powers of sliders. I created it in ShaderForge a great purchase for the company and have not regretted once since grabbing it. I have also been modelling more deco stuff for the fire temple including the bucket lifts with working lids. Have to say looks nice when they rotate around and the lids open and close due to gravity. Its like looking at a lava lamp. Now I am rigging up the Fire temple boss and readying him up for animations for the following weeks. He will be our first ever giant boss and the environment will be needed to defeat him. No straight forward attack to win as we have put 2 different strategies to defeat him already in place. Thy End is near....eth I guess. Awwww yeah another post done. More progress with our games the world is good.
In other news I have a few meetings to do in regards to business next week and this could be good for us so fingers crossed. Until then i will be covering sunday of the musings. Have a great week guys ! |
