Hello everyone!
This is the first devLog for Candid a new open world game in development for pc!
Candid is being developed in Unity 3d and it will take place in Nefeli Island you will play as Kid a young delivery boy who loves to travel and explore!
The game mechanics are centered in building relationships with the inhabitants of the island while working as a delivery boy also you will be able to freely explore the game's island that I will do my best to fill it with ruins, misteries and easter eggs!.
This game is inspired by a lot of games that I have played in my life like Chrono Trigger, Golden Sun, The legend of Zelda, Harvest Moon and more!
The game is a mix of 3d graphics with 2d sprites, the game enviorements are being create in 3d and the player and npc's are being create as 2d sprites with 8 different perspectives based on the camera's position.
Some of the game mechanics being worked on are:
Day Time Cycle ( Dynamic lighting and npc's behaviors based on the day time).
Npc routines (Npc's will go to sleep, work, etc)
Inventory Management based on slots and item weight.
Packages and letters delivery to the inhabitants of the island!
Building relationship with the inhabitants of the island to get reward and complete the game's story!
Game event's based on progress and misteries resolved.
There's a lot more images and videos on the next links below!
