Anime Character

Posted by Gamer3D on July 19, 2007, 11:38 p.m.

For those of you who don't know about my 3D platform game, I'll give a quick description.

It is a Work in Progress, currently having its engine developed. Its current engine allows moving blocks, blocks with gravity, running, jumping, double-jumping, wall-jumping, and super-jump blocks. Its current main character is rather simple:

If you would like to play the demo, here is a link:

Though I have that much done, I'm planning to redo the graphical style of the game. To do this, I'm starting with the main character. I decided to make the main character (and all graphics) in an anime style.

Here is the current progress on the replacement main character:

Things left to do to the main character:

  • Add hair

  • Add a mouth

  • Add a body (with clothing, of course)

  • Animate it

    I'm also considering adding terrain and ramps to my engine. This will allow levels to be less blocky and much more spread-out.

    Please post comments, suggestions, etc.

    I'd just texture map the mouth on.

    looks nice!

    Try not to make it too anime though.

    Try to make it your own style… [:D]

    It would be great if you added joystick controlls ;)

    Yeah, that's what I'm planning to do. It's the same thing I did for the eyes.

    Im personally not one for anime style, but so far it looks good. If you want to craft a new style, like RV suggested, Ill help. Or just make each level unique looking. I love maing new styles, or just stealing older, cool ones…

    So far so good, but you should script the camera better - make a minimum distance.

    Is that a dude or a chick? Or a chickish dude? It won't be anime unless you make him look more sullen.

    It is a girl. I decided to REALLY mess around with the storyline.

    Aww.

    "with clothing"? But then how would it be anime? Anime needs at least 3 tentacle beasts to qualify. Otherwise it's just japanimation.
