Project Update

The Alterations

After having a meeting with my supervisor I have made some decisions regarding my project. 

• I will be sticking with 1 theme; due to the amount of time I have spent on the prison I will stick with that one. My supervisor felt that doing more than 1 completely different themes was a bit too ambitious for 1 person in the time frame I have. Although this does mean I can put more time into the prison.
• I aiming to have a second level based in the prison where the collectibles are harder to find and The Tormented is faster.
• I will also be designing different collectibles for the level so they fit in with the new game concept.

The Tormented

Here is a rough sketch of how I picture The Tormented to look.

He will have disfigurations where the scientists have added and taken away body parts and internal organs. For example he will have an ear missing and a distorted skull where they have taken out part of his brain and put something else in it's place. 

Over the next week I will be focusing on one room; both modelling and texturing. Then designing the entire body of The Tormented for modelling in 3ds Max and Mudbox.

Project Update

Some Alterations

After talking to my supervisor about two important changes to my project idea I now have a clear idea of my project and how I will be creating the game.

1. I have decided to take out the website side and focus solely on the game as I believe the quality would be diminished if I attempted both in the time I have. My supervisor agrees with this. I want to create an amazing game that I can be truly proud of.
2. After deciding to use the Unreal Game Engine to create my game I wanted to run it by my supervisor, he also agrees with this. So I am now waiting for the company to give out the license I need to use the program.

What's next?

I will be watching tutorials and buying books on using the Unreal engine so that when I am able to use it I have a good foundation to start with. I won't actually need the game engine till November as the focus for this month is asset production in 3ds Max etc.
