People are not reading either the instructions to the right of the game or the tutorial in our main menu. So I am going to make a mandatory one on the game screen. Brandon Lin, Can you make me a .psd with the following paramaters? Just put the .psd in the dropbox and I will take care of the rest.

this mock up is just a rough... make it look like all our GUI, but keep the four spots on the corners for buttons

CHALLENGE!

Feel Free to better my score

Glitches caught in newist verison

Also no score board in the game.

lightmapping

4096!!! Looks beautiful, but took 8 hours to bake... considering holding off on lightmaps until after the competition when we have more population.

Lightmap at 2048... quality isn't as good as I'd like. Going to try 4096 again. It crashed my computer last night, so keep your fingers crossed.

Tutorial

Here are the individual pages for our game's Tutorial. The text was written by my older brother, Erik Lee. The drawings and handwritten text are by me!

Main Menu and gerrymander logo

Colorsample room

On the top is a picture of original color scheme of the room. because the colors where to active and at time blending too close to other pros, I had changed to a more harmonious color scheme for the tile floor as well as pulled back the saturation of the bumps.

Crunch Time_for competition

Final Push Priorities:

- Stages: time runs out, move to next stage with new obstacles and level model, and reset Dr to starting point (x: 0, y: 0, z: -5.5). After every 4th stage up enemy difficulty.

- Enemy progression: Monkey rate of fire -.5, Lizard speed +.5, and Rabbit rate of hop -.5

- "respawn" Dr to starting point after death

- Instantiate stun_particle when enemies are stunned

- Instantiate trap prefab when enemies are trapped

- Animation scripts

- Sound scripts

- Title Menu

Lighting and Population

Thank you for the textures Mr. Lin!

What do you think?

Almost there!

I know nobody will comment on this, or maybe even see it, but room population and lighting has begun!

Main Menu Art

Here is the main menu to the Game inspired by old vintage horror movies.One in particular that catered to showing the importants of all the characters without overwhelming the composition.

Ratio

Boring post I know, but this is the best place for everybody to remember.

If we are going for a 16 x 10 ratio like we discussed, we should be able to squeeze a 1,000 x 625 playing screen out of the browser.
