Is it possible you could do a tentacle horror type monster for this guy to encounter? Just a suggestion. There are not enough low poly tentacle horrors available.
Thanks for that, I really wanted to get this set. I just tried dropping them into PowerQuest into one of my generic adventure rooms, added your computer and two of your doors and it looked so darn good just walking around I almost passed out. Just what the doctor ordered. I think I may work off your generic figure (correct scale) to make some mutants/zombies for it.
Really good artwork considering the size of the resolution and color palette. :)
Looks like Resident Evil meets LucasArts Adventure game, perfect for a lot of storylines.
In watching your demo animations it appears the sprite is more than complete to make a 2D adventure game and have a pretty good main character. Very detailed for such a small pixel resolution. I wish more stuff of this calibre was posted that was qualified to use for an adventure game. I've gone nuts on the genre since I discovered PowerQuest on this site. Working hard on a game right now with it and if I can drop these animations in I might craft my next game around them.
P.S. Declined my card, sorry. I use it daily to buy stuff on Itch.io so I don't know what is different with this purchase.
Thanks for that. I have been waiting years for an appropriate model to use as a polar explorer in a Lovecraft themed game. Years. Will get it right now.
P.S. Sorry, I just realized it only offers Paypal as an option. Can you add debit card in there? That's how I buy most things on Itch.
No, .obj models are not compatible or rigged for mechanim. Only .FBX or similar files that contain animation and rigging. Otherwise it is a good model, very retro.
Other things suck and are not well thought out. They lack Zen.
Adventure Creator is for people who can't program and have no zen. They don't know any better. They think AC is how development is supposed to feel. Agonizing, torturous and so over-engineered everything takes forever. That's blasphemy on the Unity forum, you never attack AC. It is the Pope of the Asset Store.
I've bought every tool on the Unity Asset Store for one simple reason ... I wanted to build a combination Adventure Game and Turn-Based combat RPG. No, wait ... I meant I wanted to build LOTS and LOTS of games like this, a sort of genre that particularly interests me.
I started in Adventure Creator, found it slow - tedious - boring and overengineered. Two hours in it and I am checked out mentally. I have lost my initial enthusiasm for my game concept. Too much piddling with a weird set of flags in Visual Script. It doesn't even feel like game design to me it's so labyrinthine.
Started last Friday just playing with PowerQuest having accidentally discovered it here on Itch.io. You know when something is good when you start playing with it and it sucks you into hyperfocus.
It is one week later and I have my prototype up and running ... three dramatic cutscenes, a cast of characters and a very atmospheric game that is what I wanted ... focused on the story and emotions with a component of turn-based combat. The Turn-Based battles are already spectacular. I was trying to copy the fights in "Shelter" and I almost cloned them.
I don't think I would have gotten this far in it in Adventure Creator and after a month I'd probably abandon it.
FLOW is essential to game development. I've written a lot of them and I can tell you that without FLOW you will never finish your game. If the engine itself is an ordeal, the development becomes torturous. It needs to FLOW like PowerQuest.
The ideal background is you should be at least a competent programmer in C# for Unity. You would also be greatly helped if you ever played with the original Adventure Game Studio back in the day (AGS) because this engine is like that one except vastly superior.
UPDATE : After another week of working in PowerQuest, I am blown away. So much better than Adventure Creator as far as 2D goes it is not a fair comparison. A better kit than the old ADVGTK. Spend the time to learn how it works, your brain will be fried at how well thought out it is. Everything is fun and effortless and it flows right through your fingers. You can focus on the story and game mechanics.
My initial attempt at this is a crude JRPG but you'd be amazed at how easy it can be.
READ THE DOCUMENTATION. THEN READ IT AGAIN. It is invaluable.
I am stunned at how much I was able to learn about it just playing with it before I read the documentation.
I set out to incorporate turn-based battle between PQ characters on Tuesday. It's Thursday night at 11:30 pm and a multi-character party is working really good. The first character I recruited into my party was a dog to assist in the combat and he turned out pretty cool, too.
It is the most intuitive, clever tool I have ever bought and I must have purchased half the Unity store. It all lacks something that Powerquest has. It's is obviously the product of many years of experience by a master developer who had a lot of Adventure Game Studio under his belt.
You'll need some C# skill, some Unity experience and a capacity to appreciate how instinctive it is. Many different turn-based kits of the Unity store will integrate nicely with this tool. My first effort is going to be simple, I am certain I will finish this game now that I understand this tool.
It's a bummer. I would buy these in a minute but there is no debit card option. I only buy through Itch.io to make sure they receive their fee and I can't use Paypal at present.
Beautiful, could you make this one credit card pay as well? I already own the other sets I purchased this way. My Paypal is flakey. Is this set already included in the MEGA pack?
This is a whole 'nuther level of awesome for PSX style games. Seeing it with proper lightmapping, I just had to plan a game with these assets. Something very scary about a trailer park at night.
Do you know the origin of the model itself? It's important to know if something uses it in a game. It looks fantastic, it's a great model. Just making sure it wasn't lifted out of a commercial game.
I had a hard drive fail on me last year and I lost these! Was planning for years to use these in my post-apocalyptic dungeon crawler as walls!! Thanks for putting them up in Unity format, much easier to import and incorporate right away!!!!
P.S. Still trying to find a way to put CRT flicker onto those select areas of monitors and electronic lights in Standard LRP materials. It was easy enough in Legacy materials animating the hidden illumination map but any ideas how to do it with Standard materials?
Most games you get stuck into for a platformer you realize right away how bad crouch is needed to hide behind crates and shuffle forward through a narrow passage. Immediately you have a stealth component and secret areas, adds a lot to the game right there. Ladder climb is almost mandatory now, needs to climb ladders to access new areas.
