Week 12

This week was Christmas so I didn't do anything as I was with my family all week.

Week 11

This week I found lots of different assets online I could use for my map itself,

These included a dead tree which will be used for the Ruins area when i get onto that map, this will be used as cover and annoyance for the map.

I also found 3 different types of ruin, one of which was a old rock which looks kind of cool, it is too tall for a character to jump on but I think I will make ways for the characters to get on top of these.

Another type was a broken down old wall, characters can use this for cover and to climb up the sides to give them an advantage in whatever way they want to use this.

And finally I got a broken corner from a house with a window ledge, again this can be used as cover and there the window you can use to look out through.

The other things I downloaded was a wooden cabin, this will be used around the map as a structure people can hide in and use for cover and able to peek through the different windows in there.

Below you can see all these different types of assets in the game in which next week I will be making the ruins area with the blocks I have gotten and the broken down tree to help make it look even more baron.

Week 10

This week I decided to add in foliage all over the world.

I did this with the foliage tool in the engine that is available, The textures I decided to add in as the foliage was the Buttercup flowers, Ferns and Grass, this is to help add texture around the world so it looks a little natural.

As you can see in the screenshot above this is the tool I used to do it, and you can see how many of each type has been placed.

You may remember from earlier in the blog I added a "house". I have no given it a wooden texture and have decided to make this my "spawn" as I have realised it is going to be hard for me to make an aeroplane fly across the screen and jump out of it to land, well.

Here is the house now and you can also see the foliage in use there.

Week 9

This week I took a break from doing anything on the project itself, I had hit a mind block on what to do as I am not the most creative person in the world.
