wow. I was working on my character, putting all the limbs on separate layers and getting it ready for AFX and then I imported him in, converted him to shape laters and took him to my main comp. Then I went and pin puppeted all the limbs and labeled every pin and started to position…

Unity Homework – Mario
I’ve been working on the Mario homework thing we needed to do. I haven’t yet run into any major problems and all I’ve really got to do know is finish building the world. I added in a cool skybox, I wanted one that was more vector and animated, rather than the super realistic sky that…
Mario Unity Exercise – Tue 26.05.20
Today was very eventful, we got through a lot of important things. We made Mario walk, run, jump and eventually got him to crouch. It was really cool because we linked all the movements up with the walk, run and jump cycles. We learnt a lot of things that will come in handy for when…
Hero Tweaking
I fixed James’ body, Im a lot happier with it now. He no longer looks like a balloon. I also added a smily face to the health bar so that it looks more like an LSD patch/ sticker (still not sure what to call the piece of paper). And finally I started to build my…
Font Choice
I want my font to look like code because of the ‘matrix’ theme with the code and numbers. So Initially I wanted to use Vivala Code but it was $16 so I decided against that. I then looked for similar Monotype fonts and found the font – ‘Calling Code’ which is pretty similar.
Enemy & Health Bar
I don’t really have an ‘Enemy character’ it’s more of enemy objects that causes damage. The enemies are brackets ‘( { [ < ‘ but they are disguised. So the first bracket is a burger, I’m yet to create other ones though, they’re coming soon. I am also almost finished creating the health bar which…
Character Development
I decided to add colours to my characters eyes since his tripping. I gave him a McDonalds drink in his hand since he was drinking that when the LSD hit. I’m trying to fix the body still, I’m still not happy with the shape. I changed the colour of his clothes as well, I prefer…
Character Design
I started to draw my character up digitally because it is easier to make adjustments and changes when its digital as opposed to on paper. I’m happy with James’ face, hair and glasses, im not 100% certain on his body though. I doubt I’m going to use those coloured clothes either. I referenced my initial…
Backstory: Update 3
James, the hero, is pulling an all nighter trying to study for his maths test tomorrow. He’s been going at it for hours – past papers, learning equations, numbers, numbers, numbers !!! that’s all he can think about. James gets hungry and decides there no time to cook, so he’s going to quickly walk to…
Unity Homework – Skybox
So I decided to play around in unity and repeat what we did in class on friday. I only repeated the sprite sheet exercise on Cuphead and the boy because these are the ways I want to create and import my characters into unity. I started off with cup head, I looked through the sprite…
