Happy Hills in Project History

admin — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 23:23:41 +0000

For the last few month I hadn’t much time to report anything new. The main reason for this is my change of the company and also my job position. When I started at Chimera Entertainment in Munich, one of my first Projects as an Art Production Manager was Happy Hills. It’s a small fun Puzzle Game on iOS. You can find further information to the Project in my Project History. The game was well received by the press and players equally. Soon I will be able to add further projects to my track record, so stay tuned.

This time I want to share a small game I did in ~8 hours. It is my first project in Unity3D. I found a nice Tutorial on 3DBuzz and followed it along. It was really fun to do. I am interested in your opinion so have fun playing and commenting!

Victorian House Part VI: Shader

Just before the FMX I wanted to share the latest version of my building. This time I focused mostly to the shading. I added an ao pass for the roof and parts of the wall. They also got a normal maps, hight maps and specular maps. I did some tests with the reflection of the windows as well as an animated normal and hight map for the awning cloth. Unfortunately a still cant show these results. I sign off for the FMX till next week.

New Showreel

I revisited the Showreel in preparation for FMX. I replaced the shots of “lostbox” with the final images. My focus was mostly on the second half of the showreel. I kicked some unpolished and boring shots and included some of my animation tests. They are much more polished and vital. I hope you enjoy it!

Wildlif Park 3: Humans

On Wildlife Park 3 I was also responsible for the visitors an staff of the Park. To create the feeling of a great number and variety of visitors I developed six generic characters. There were children, adults and seniors both male and female. For each visitors there were two sets of clothes for summer and winter. A great number of textur variations with different colours for skin, tops and trousers were the final touch. The staff used the same generic model and a separate set clothes. Because of the tight time schedule we were unfortunately not able to do a female staff also.

These are screen shots directly from the 3D package and do not represent the in game quality. My responsibility for the characters were mainly concept, design, modelling and texturing
