I'm aiming high with this one!

Hello Everyone once again!

My latest model I've been working on I started just today! I messed around with a couple of ideas and decided this would keep me busy and hopefully interested in what i am doing!
I tried the Android SDK recently, which is difficult for me to wrap my none programmer head around so if anyone has any tips then you can throw them my way.

Anyways here is my latest so far, If you can guess what it is you get *10 points ;D



*(Points are subject to terms and conditions, check our terms of service before submitting to make sure you are eligible)  Just Kidding, there are no points! But i do hope you enjoy my work.

Kind Regards and best wishes to all,

Hello Readers!

Hello everyone! long time no see, I've been having a play with unity, I am not a programmer as you know so I'm making slow progress with that. Also the indie group I believe has broken up as there has been no real news lately. As for the job hunt I'm still actively looking, if anyone has any roles they think i could be suitable for please let me know.

Now back onto my work, I've not got a new personal project yet as I'm still thinking some over i have however been doing a little modelling and rigging. The latest, an Ant! Small I know but it was just an idea for a little fun. I'm still rigging it, its not complete so there's no animation yet but here are some still images if what I have so far! Hope you all Enjoy!

Thanks for coming back and reading! Kind Regards,

Dan.

Unity

I have downloaded unity, looking at it and trying to get to grips with using a new program and to new script. I've only ever used ActionScript and that was only once or twice but i think ill get to grips with most of what i need by looking it up and finding it out.

I will start on the assets for the game as soon as possible, as i said i dont need to create much in the way of a design document as i am the be and end all of the design team. However i am having the help of my partner for ideas about the game, and thanks to her the game itself shifted into a different direction the other day. But hopefully this new direction will lead me on to an even better than the one i had planned before! She will also be helping me pick a new studio name hopefully, though it consists of just us two.

As things start to progress im sure there will be images popping up on here for all of you to see and comment on. Tell me what you are liking and not. I may in time also release the game play aspects so keep watching, hopefully something good will pop up on here soon!

Thanks for reading! Kind Regards,

Dan

Onwards and.... Onwards?

Hello again everyone!

I know I have been abscent for a little while and thats because I haven't had anything new to show really. I think the project with friends has kinda fell through. I haven't heard anything or seen anything new in weeks and weeks so i will no longer be working on that project unless the team come together and have shown significant improvement in work ethic.

Following on from that I have split off onto my own idea, I have the basic idea now. With some of the gameplay ideas laid out. I will be running it by friends and family to see what they think and posting work on here when I have some to present.

I still need a name for my individual indie studio, if anyone has any ideas throw them my way! I shall be concentrating on the game as much as I can so therefor wont be thinking much on a studio name for a while.

Hopefully there will be lots of work to show on here! And even if it takes me quite a while to have a finished product maybe a potential employer will see what I have on here and be willing to give me a shot.

Since its just me on the project I will also be skipping the design document phase, I'll write down much of the game play aspects for my own reflection but there will be no formal document as of yet for anyone to see. Also much will about it will remain tip top secret ;D

Any ideas, thoughts or questions? Please feel free to leave a comment!

Hope to be back here soon!

Regards,
Dan

UPDATE: The Project

Well little to no progress is being made on  weekly basis here, seems like im the only one putting the time in in order to get anything done.

Its almost time for me to consider leaving the project in order to follow one of my own as its starting to feel like this one is going nowhere unless i do it alone. Which i would do if it was my game idea however unfortunately it is not, just the content there of is. But if i chose to leave the project i will also remove my ideas fromt he previous game and maybe use them in my own project.

UPDATE: With the help of my friend and partner, Marlene, i have decide that i will continue to work on the project however i will only continue to do so whilst other people are. Whilst they are not working, and i am not on that particular project i will continure to work on my own project(s) and so will hopefully continue to have work to post here on my portfolio.
