Forums - Gaming Discussion - Codename: "HANDICAP" - upcoming project

Just beware of that uncanny valley :p

Seriously, It is very inspiring to see someone follow their passion and make what they want. Will definitely support this.

Also to note, (TB) is barefoot for a good portion of the game. I don't want to spoil it, but let's just say certain events lead to that situation.

...you just leaked his gender



I have questions.

- Have you secured a publisher? , if yes, ignore the next question
- What do you think of Kickstarter? adding and expanding the team?
- How is your team structured ? how many working on what?
- Blender ? Why not ZBrush?
- Unity ?
- Who's writing? , Who's composing? , I always wanted to do any of these.

Ignored

Kickstarter is OK. Need to see more of it, though. Team may expand before the project is complete. We really don't want a huge team for this game, believe it or not, but whatever help is needed will be applied as best we can.

- How is your team structured ? how many working on what?

As follows:  3D Modeller/Artist x3, Concept Artist x2, Producer and Associate Producer, Programmer x4, Level Designer, Sound Designer, QA Tester, and Lead Designer.....which is me.

- Blender ? Why not ZBrush?

ZBrush is one of the programs we'll be using to finalize the models. Each character, right now, is about 50% of what they'll upon completion.

- Unity ?

- Yes, that's the game's engine.

- Who's writing? , Who's composing? , I always wanted to do any of these.

I'm doing the writing and with the aid of my Sound Designer, composing as well.

Lovely, thanks.

An example: During a scene, a quarter of the way through the title, while 20-year-old Autumn has revelations for the diseased and depressed 11-year-old she's currently looking out for, suddenly, the two are approached by someone.....and they're not friendly. Our protagonists scramble around, looking for any means of defense. By now, the player takes control...

 

Also to note, (TB) is barefoot for a good portion of the game. I don't want to spoil it, but let's just say certain events lead to that situation.

that's an interesting looking gun... From the description/setting I'm kinda surprised that there is a gun at all TBH. Is it a toy? Do you have to bluff them?

Updates (one in the OP as well). Slightly different perspective for the combat and we have updated our wardrobe for each character. May be the last update for a while. By September/October, we'll hav

EDITED.  Are these the final designs for the characters?  Like the gender neutral child with issue X and Autumn with say issue Y?



Interesting and it has to be playstation =P.



I'm sorry to say I am not really feeling the look of the game so far. The models look like manikins or something at the moment. They are clearly high poly and detailed but the textures and shading let it down IMO. I assume that you haven't got to the point where you are doing facial animation etc, and won't for a long time if the game is going to be 2015 but facial expressions could really make and break a game going for character driver drama. I feel that the Walking Dead game by TellTale do a good job with their facial animations even with relatively simple character models.

I know I am being pretty critical in this thread and I understand that it's still very early WIP, so I don't mean to offend or anything. But just my current thoughts on what you have shown so far. Still looking forward to seeing how this develops, and wish you all the luck in the world. And the work is far better than anything I could ever do.

It looks like a sanctuary to me. :)



I don't know if you've answered this before but will it be a 60$ retail game?
