Game
Our Great War

Starting to populate our initial level with objects after gray boxing. Attempting to keep the final file size down, we'll try to reuse textures. This texture will get used a lot since a lot of items are made of wood or we can use it as cracked mud.

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.

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.

Revamped the targeting system to be more chaotic, like battles tend to be.

There was a bug where, if the unit was coming from the flank, only the one corner solder would be targeted, essentially getting all the bullets.

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.

Animated with the Lee-Enfield rifle. Almost ready to put this into the game so we can remove the default hand. It's not 100% but beats the robot hand. Let me know what you think!

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!!!!

Need to add a bit more variation in my death animations since they just fall forward or backward. Death isn't this neat and tidy.

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.

Maybe not enough various in the death animations?

First pass at the German Mauser 1898, one of the common rifles used early in World War 1. This is a step towards creating our German soldier. We have the AI, now part of the rifle. Next will be modeling and animating the soldier.
