DevLog for Tellurica by Regeniversity Games

[regeniversitygames]

Looking for someone to work with on a low poly 3D dark exploration/survival game discussing philosophical issues. probably not a long game but I want it to be very difficult to get to the end of. I've started quite a few games before but never finished them because I've never found anyone to work with before and my ideas tend to be more than I can create on my own. this time I'm determined to actually make a complete game, even if it has to make up for its simplicity by being extra meaningful.

I've been using Unity 5 and C#, although coding is not really my strength so I'm hoping to find someone to work with who is better at that. my skills are mainly in art, world building, sound design, narrative, and whatever else I can get out of myself haha..

I'd be glad to talk with anyone who would be interested, just let me know!

Been doing a lot lately with solidifying the art style and I finally reworked the main playable race. This is just the standard/generic but I’m adding blendshapes so that you’ll be able to customize the size of different body parts and colors, and toggle the parts of the hair.

p.s. I know I haven’t posted in a long time, crazy things were happening and then I got really busy but I’ve still been working on it in bits and pieces and now I’m going to start getting back into it more consistently.

Ceiur is one of the Kitean immigrants on EM-saio. He resides in a village located near the coast of the Galtan Sea and is the local fishing specialist. Ceiur has never been seen without his favorite hat atop his head, even in the hottest of summers.

I created this model over a few hours last night and today based on a rough sketch I did a few days ago. (model is a little over 2k verts but I’m going to do some more work on it still and try to get it down just under 2,000)

Working on another creature for the game. This one is a rather small predator called Drif. They tend to live and move in packs and are native to the swamps of Endeera. Subtle changes in the climate of Yundrendra have allowed for their migration North into the region surrounding the Galtan Sea and lower parts of the continental zone of Yundrika. Due to their intelligence and strategic hunting, they’ve thrived in the low lands of that area which are home to larger prey than they’re accustomed to.

Textured the Terion, finishing up animations. Going to be making a scene soon to work out fauna AI in, hopefully there will be a video to show of that with music and such.

Soil Section Grid-Instantiation Test #1 each section of the grid contains unique soil variables (nutrients, minerals, composition, saturation) which are affected by events that occur within each grid location. In this way, plants can affect the soil quality they’re growing in without affecting all the soil in the game world.

Basic map layout of the first region of the game (mountainous coastal Yundrika) - there is really more elevation variation on the actual landscape model
