3rd person game of some kind

fire7side

I've decided to do a project that's based mostly on experimenting. This would be a 3rd person 3d game. I'm currently working on this low poly character. Once I get it moving in 3d space, I'll add dialog manager. Then quests. The main thing I'm not planning on doing is battles, so stealth and resource management will be the main gameplay. Sort of a stealth survival game with a story and quests. Once I get the gameplay worked out, I'll start building worlds and working on an overarching story. Hopefully, once I get into a 3d world, I can post it for feed back eventually getting to a demo. I did the character in Blender, working on animation.

fire7side Check out my post, ive started documenting my journey doing exactly what you plan to do, tho im very very far from finishing up with character control 😃.. I hope you will have better luck and process will go faster.

Good luck

kuligs2 I didn't see it, what's the subject and category.
Nevermind, I found it. I'm not going to worry too much about the controller other than gamepad control.

I got some free trees on the internet that should work. The model skeleton is almost attached so I can start on the walk cycle. This is in Godot instead of in Blender. I plan on using a building addon for Blender for the buildings.

Skeleton is connected and a few more trees from the package.

Going to have kind of corny monsters with weird abilities. I've been reading up a little and might try behavior trees for them. The player has a walk cycle so I'll be working on the 3rd person controller next. I think I'll be doing the terrain in Blender.

Experimenting with some texturing and mountains. The flat shading gets a little boring. Still working on the 3rd person controller.

I like the bug, it looks scary and cute 😁 It is a bug or not? Spiders have 8 legs.

trizZzle Thanks, yeah it's a bug monster. The monsters will talk and there will be good and bad ones.

This is the character with a walk animation. I still need game pad control, but I think I'll work on dialog first.

Game with speech bubble from Dialog Manager.
The next thing is to work on gameplay, which will consist so far as stealth, crafting, and fetch quests. I think I'm going to start with stealth. Making a sort of town with different vertical and horizontal levels and monsters that detect the player in different ways.

This is a quick mockup to work on the stealth aspect of the game. I'll probably give the character a decent jump and ladder climbing.
