I started working on a First Person Shooter, and I have made enough progress that I can start to share how it is going
There are some locations and scenarios that I always wanted to play, that previous games just didn’t provide, so I will try to make them myself
Enclosed below are links for two pictures to give you a sense of what the game would be like

I have no experience with game development, coding, 3D modelling or graphic arts, so this effort will be low-poly and amateur
It would be a huge accomplishment for me to make a simple game with one map and a few enemies that you can actually fight
I’ll share more as I make progress

The game continues to move forward
Enclosed below are links to two additional pictures
Can you guess what location will be the first map?
I think the last image gives it away
I’ll share more as I make progress

Link updated

Instead of posting images of 3D models, I thought I would share some wall textures today
Hopefully the wall textures make you feel like you are in the location, instead of being in a box shaped room
If all goes well, I hope to provide a short video in the next few weeks

Enclosed below is a link to a short announcement video
Please let me know what you think

Edit: New link above

I didn’t create everything shown in the video so I want to give credit where it is due

Animations - all of the animations for the Zentraedi soliders and Veritechs are from Mixamo.  Their animations are amazing
It would take me a lifetime to even come close to making my own life-like animations
Unfortunately, Mixamo only has animations for human bipeds, so I made the Battlepod animation myself

Steady progress continues on the game
I spent a lot of time finishing up the small level shown in the video from the last post
I also created another enemy for the game, a Zentraedi soldier in Heavy Body Armor
I made skins for the Brown/Blue armor as well as the Green armor
Enclosed below are links to some pictures, let me know what you think

My goal is to have a playable version of the game ready by the end of February (pre-Alpha)
That means I will need to start recruiting some play testers in January
If anyone ever reads this post, and wants to participate, just send me a private message or email through the forum

I spent most of the past month improving the enemy AI
It took a surprising amount of time to get enemies to use the single-person elevator one-at-a-time, instead of all at the same time, like the Three Stooges

With that finished, I have started making my own versions of the objects I have been using as placeholders that were created by others
Enclosed at the link below are some pictures of my version of the green Fighter Pod
This won’t be a playable ship in the game, but will be used as decoration, just like the ReEntry Pod that I posted pictures of before
Next up is to make my own version of a Battle Pod and Veritech

I finished modelling the BattlePod, including the Light Missile and Heavy Missile variants
See the pictures at the links below
The last thing I need to model is a Veritech in Battloid mode
This will probably take some time to get right, including multiple head variants, the gun, and different color schemes
I’m still hoping to finish the game by the end of February 2021.  It’s still possible

One year ago today, I started developing my game
In honor of this occasion, I wanted to share my version of a Veritech that I just finished modelling
I made three of the different head variants (1A, 1J and 1S) and six different skins
Enclosed below are links to some pictures for each

I finished making my game demo, and Battroid Attack is now available on Itch.io at the link below
You can play it for FREE in your browser, nothing to download, nothing to install

I made a video showing actual gameplay, check it out on my You Tube Channel
I also updated the announcement video using only assets that I created, instead of the placeholders I was using before, and that link is below as well

If you ever wanted to play a specific video game that just didn’t exist, you can always try to make it yourself
It took a lot of hard work, and just over a year to do it, but I made my own game, completely by myself with no training and no prior experience
If I could do it, then so can you
