Greetings! I come all the way from Splendid Fox Games to share with you an update for our 3D Space Combat Shooter, Nelvaris: First Contact.

Nelvaris tells the story of Humans having first contact with a race called the Nelvari... and it doesn't quite go so well, they exchange bullets before they exchange words! Hostilities quickly ensue when both races attempt to claim the same planet which has an abundance of an element, which is both rare and extremely valuable to both races, albeit for very different reasons.

The player is a pilot in a Nelvari fighter squadron and has to defend their territory against the Human incursion across a variety of missions.

Just recently I have gone through and made an update to the graphics in the game in an effort to make them stand out more and look less like your average space shooter. As I am primarily a programmer my skills are limited in this area, but I wanted to share my progress with you today.

This first picture shows the original look of the game. Humans are red and Nelvari are Teal

This second picture is the new look to the game. Using the new lightweight render pipeline in Unity 2019 and editing the textures, I have given the game a more cartoony look. The Humans are now green and the Nelvari are now purple

Below is a video of the gameplay, however it is an old video, before I updated the graphics:

And lastly is a test video I made of 42 ships having a brawl, not counting the 2 large carrier ships.

Now that the graphics have been updated, I may soon be updating the HUD, after that I can make some new updated gameplay videos.

Any and all feedback is much appreciated. Thanks for reading.
