Don't forget to update your WIP

4 hours in we're settled with the pitch for our game : 

The playable character is a cyborg whose family has been taken away from him. His only chance to save them is to partake on a deadly racing game where he has to compete against other cyborg and reach the finish line through the checkpoint without being killed by his opponents

Gameplay wise, we want a fast paced experience with the possibility for the player to slide or skid on the ground (with some platforming action if with manage to make it)

So far 3 of us have been working on the main character design

The final design is not finished yet because we want to be sure about the characters proportions, but the final design will most likely be derived from this one

In the meantime Valentin made some props for our first blockout of the racing track, as well as some robots body parts. We aim for a cartoonish/low poly render in the end for it to be easier to rig and animate but it gave us an idea of the overall process

Emilie started working on music and sound production, we can't send a preview yet but the first sample sounds very promising !

The programming part is handled by Mathis and he is progressing quickly towards our objective of having the basic gameplay mechanics ready for tonight 

ok!

8th hour : we wrapped up the concept phase and are now working on the main props of the game

Following this concept, Pierre-Marie and Valentin are currently working on the model for the game character

We should be done with it before tomorrow.

I'm personally working on some assets that you'll be able to find on the track like the starting points, stone debris and checkpoints, as well as textures and shaders in unity 

Mathis was having trouble with some interactions he had to program but everything should go smoothly by now

Emilie is still working on the music while giving advices and preparing the rigging / animation phase

here's a snippet of our game's main theme, a synthwave inspired song mixed with a moody melody to highlight the sad part of the plot

Hey !  We are modeling hard tonight

 the main character is finally done

the rig is also complete

we are also making some props for the environement

Thanks, good night if you are going to sleep

Update 5 : Coding part

I managed to finish the coding for the player's movement, the AI and the checkpoint system. I began programming the Shooting mecanic and the ennemies Attacks but its far from perfect.

Good morning, thanks :)

random props montage : fences and wall edition

thank you

Update 6 :

PM and Arthur made some props almost ready to be imported!

I am working on the UI and some ideas for the environment.  I am also rigging and skinning our 3d character

Here is a ref for our environment :

Mathis is working on the AIs and the shooting system of our game.

ok !  Thank you !

Hi ! some are back from sleeping 

during this morning Emilie and Pierre-Marie managed to modeling props and skin our character 

Thanks for your update ^^

Update : We have some problems with the main character... I don't think it will be ready at the end of the jam so we'll have a crisis meeting to decide what to do.

The gameplay loop is ready but unity's Navmesh agent  is going often wild. So the ennemies aren't ready to be integrated.
