While it is too early to expose here the idea I have regarding my next game project, I can say it will involve robots…animated robots.
The challenge here will be to animate the robots using a procedural technique as I want them to be able to place their hands randomly.
For this purpose I will probably use two things :
1. This robot I modeled years ago (here in a shameless photoshopping)
2. The physic engine of GameStart, and especially joints, to assemble a sort of ragdoll, so that I shall only need to animate the hands if I want to move the arms 🙂
Stay tuned.
I need to finish and release Astlan first, anyway!
