Level 2 is under development! I have the opportunity to work with a real level designer, and he's working on the next one. This is planned to be a patrol-type level but we'll see where his vision takes it!
Next up
Maybe not enough various in the death animations?
Without any AI implemented yet, the opponent just stands there and gets shot. Working on that next!
Behind the scenes look at the first person modeling and animation. While the soldier won't be seen, hands and arms (and sometimes feet) will be. So we can cull out the body in first person-only model to make it more efficient.
Debug lines! Testing firing-ranges and damage fall off from distance, as well as targeting various groups of enemies with a bit of chaos mixed in.
Optimizing the first level so it can be played on slower computers but still enjoy the realism that's been put into this project. It's easy to be inefficient, so it's time to optimize.
Testing out some battle tactics. I should introduce some randomness and skills so this doesn't happen in an actual game.
Making things more realistic is just making it more chaotic and less perfect.
I won!? Still not sure I believe it! I'm still playing on the PS1, so this will be a huge upgrade for me! Now I can't say I've haven't won anything, anymore! Thanks so much to the Game Jolt!!!!
More asset creation. This 1907 bayonet will be at the end of our Lee Enfield rifle but also around trenches and other areas.
We're still working on the Gewehr 1898 German rifle: adding more detail, UV unwrapping the mesh to apply texture via a texture painting app, then baking it all into the final game asset. Since this is so close to the camera, the quality needs to be high.
Lots of technical difficulties are popping up, from dead computers to engine crashes. But we're still making progress! Here's a sneak peak at one of the latest levels being developed.
