prototype game...


Well today I can reveal a prototype game I've been developing for Uni. Its done in Virtools, a game development system that makes things a little bit easier than jumping into all that crazy coding you hear about in games (although you can still do that).
The game is called Warcones and the instructions in the game tell you what its about and what to do ;)
You first need to have the virtools life player browser plugin installed and then once thats on you can go to play the game.
It's only basic and is a prototype so dont expect rocket science but I hope you enjoy it.

futuristic city scene...


Here is a completed version of the futuristic city I've been making recently. While doing it I've learned about render layers which is basically rendering all the different elements of the scene into different layers so that you have a lot more control in modifying it later. I've also touched on matte painting - digitally painting over source material (photos, 3D renders etc) to create a final image, and it is good fun to attempt.
