New progress in AI basics!


Hi, I have good news about the game! Basic prototype is progessing very well, This week I reworked basics of AI from scratch, because the first version was a little overcomplicated, which could cause much bigger problems when it comes to more complex situations in the future development. I created specific classes for different behaviour that communicate with each other.

At the moment pedestrians can do their tasks (for example going to the bench and sitting) and can explore an area when they see or hear the player. When they calm down, they will return to their activities.
My next goal will be connecting the basic AI with combat system which I already started designing.

And here is a gif from our progress:

New header and logo! New header and logo! We finally updated the game profile with current graphics :) The image in the header is combination of gameplay and artwork, showing main character searching for his victims.

We've decided to replace custom AI with RAIN AI. Just starting to learn the plugin, but it already looks very powerful.

Hiding in places and move between them This week I wrote the basics of a new feature which allows players to hide in certain places, and quickly move between them. Here is GIF:

Designing the ideal map with simple shapes in Blender

Work on the combat system has begun! First test of combat system: Mighty zombie was thrown onto the roof by enemy’s minigolf club :)

The new monitor has joined to our team :) Concept of the game map is progressing very well, I’m just learning how effective developing with two monitors is :)

Perhaps our zombie used to be a gardener before the transformation?

Besides working on the AI, we have almost finished the first car model - only mapping and texturing is left.

This creature was unexpectedly created during animation test :)

There is small demonstration of some city parts, which already have form
