Quick, concept of the 4 races (not all finalized):
From left: Human, Elf, Wolfmen, Undecided race
and a initial sprite sheet for my friends to try sprite animating in the Unity
Day 1 Log:
Just coming up with the sprites itself was already quite the challenge. Makes me appreciate the artists out there...!
Looking up tutorials and references helped alot. The rest was raw effort!
We're trying to give the game a focus on the crew itself. Some of the mechanics I want to try experimenting for include:
- Leadership - Assigning leader to your crew grants it bonuses specific to the race
- Race x Race - pairing specific races may grant bonuses / incur penalties
Friends are hard at work, so technical side updates will have to wait!
Final Notes: Juggling between school and this project is a good challenge, got to keep up the momentum!
