Point Origin : Servant to the Monster Lord #update02 - Music, jails and Linearts. (Part 02)


Following the suggestion of a certain someone i have decided to post the second part of this update directly here, featuring the three drawings i have been working on this past week.

The youtube video that will then come out later on, (hopefully tomorrow) will go back on this update and then go into what is next for the project, which will probably start to move on to Unity by then.

Thus without further ado, i present to you the first two backgrounds of the game and the finished lineart of Ophelia!


Background 01 : The monster lord dungeon. (Cell)

The monster lord cell, which will be featured at the very start of the prologue, now has a proper lineart to it. It is as of right now my first background I have ever made and which still require work done on several aspects :

- The walls and floor will have stone slates added to them. The floor will also be littered with other stuff. (Such as some straw, filth, etc..)

- The bed on the side is a basic construction right now, the lines holding it will be turned into chains, while the mechanism above it will also be expanded. (The circle will turn into a rusted gear, for instance.)

- Several details will also be added into the cell such as a simple alley and holding cell you'll be able to see from in-between the bars. And chains will be added to the walls on both sides of the jail door.

Finally, this cell will also feature Nolwen in it at the start in order to showcase that it is a monster cell.. Meaning it normally holds individuals that are in general 2m50 tall.

These cells are ultra reinforced for monsters after all. And this will have it's importance as one core element of SotML is that monsters are vastly superior to humans on a physical basis. Ophelia for instance, will easily tower above Nolwen who is of average height without even trying. (As, since she's a lamia, she can elevate herself well beyond the 5m mark, if she wishes to do so.)


Background 02 : The spooky stuff. (conceptual)

As you may have understood from the previous video update, SotML is not only featuring Nechauria. There now exist something else that you will be exposed early on into the game which could only be teased as being.. Reality bending, on the least.

The above background showcases a conceptual image of something you will come to meet at some point during your first adventure inside of Point origin.

And also the only teasing you'll get for now. Wouldn't want to ruin the surprise now, would i?


Finished Lineart : Ophelia Nephilistra, the 17th monster lord.

While i am a little sad i couldn't add in her main apparel so far, i still managed to finish our lady's lineart and start adding in some of her clothing, namely her cape.

I sure as hell hope that you like how she's looking right now, 'cause the hours i passed tracing the perfect lines would all be worth it on the end.

Excepted for my neck muscles. Ow.


And that about conclude our second part for now! I will keep you all in touch about when the youtube video comes out, where we will quickly go back on all this and lay out the next step for this project.

See ya then!

Devlog #Alpha : 14/01/2025 : Hitting walls, Learning and Adapting

With the advent of the new year, we now go back on what happened these past few months, and the many technical issues i ended up colliding with while moving into Unity itself.

Devlog #Alpha : 01/08/2024 : Game Bible Finalization.

In this first pre-unity devlog, we explore the finalized concepts of the coming prologue of SotML.

So apparently Unity's CEO decided to start taxing us Peasants. Here's what it means for SotML and even CZ Studios's beginning in general

It has now been a little more than two weeks, and I have nothing much to show right now. So far, my courses on Unity are going well, and am learning what I need to learn.

Almost done with the basics, soon moving to more intermediary stuff. More bellow.

I have to say, there is no feeling like finally becoming capable of designing the game of your dreams. It's both strange, beautiful and terrifying at the same time.

Time for an update on how the prototype is going.

And so he hits the end of the first pathway. And you know what? He even made a mini game at the end! How joyous.

See you in roughly two weeks for the next update!

Ball-o-Bot mini-game : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oLYoorwa0tyv9UiKtGPeor80j_3D7tJ…

Box Breaker, Food Munchers, and someone with a brain that's getting bigger.

Here be the biweekly update, and here be something you can also play with if you're interested also!

Alright my boiz, it's been longer than i had anticipated because a few things happened :

1. I have finished my coding courses.

2. I have been actively working on the Game prototype, and managed to make roughly half of it.

So see you soon with a build!

I swear, at that point the heavens themselves have turned against me or something..

V 0.4.0 - Player Control and Data type Systems update

A hell of my own making, and a deadline hit. I most certainly have gone insane this time around.
