Many thanks for the great writeup, and I’m looking forward to launching the Kickstarter campaign very soon… more about that in the next few days!
New sword animation work pt. 2
In between other tasks *cough*getting ready for kickstarter*cough*, I’ve been finishing the animation and shading on that sword attack. Here’s a look at the whole thing in action:
Creating a procedural ocean in Unity
This all started as a testing function. The ocean in The Last Shore used to be completely handcrafted, but I wanted to experience the game more like a first time player. It’s really hard to pretend you don’t know where the next island is, when you actually do.
So, I got this system up and running as a test for myself. Once it was going, it was pretty clear that it was very interesting, and it opens up possibilities for a New Game+ playthrough.
