Apollo Accord Update #5: Curing Loneliness

     

The Premise & Changes

     
Decided I was lonely so I added some background characters and a “colleague” character to spice things up a bit. While not fully AI, these guys can say stuff and makes the atmosphere a bit more grounded.
     

• Added dudes talking military lingo
       
• Changed up the environment lighting a bit more so it looks more like a emergency and not just a house on fire.
       
• Assisted the player a bit by shining spotlights onto path signs. The guys also act as blockades to assist player navigation.

Next up: More environment building

     

• Expand the right side of the base a bit more
       
• Clean up messy geometry
       
• I STILL HAVEN’T WORKED ON THE MAIN MENU
       
• Detail the control center.
       
• Script systems for campaign flow & to make it a true RPG, a inventory system

Animating these guys is DEFINITELY something I am NOT looking forward to.
