One of the allies in “A Shadow’s Trail” is a ninja with the codename: “Pocha-Pocha”……I won’t go into any strong detail but please take a look at the texture detail….
Enemy Soldier almost done
This is the one of the enemy Samurai in the game. Not yet complete but currently being finalized.
Moving rapidly towards the teaser trailer
We are rapidly moving towards having a teaser trailer for “A Shadow’s Trail” to be released this fall. Take a look at some of the environmental art that is being used. Great stuff!
From 2D to 3D (Work in progress for the 3D model)
2D to 3D…….It’s all about changing the dimensions. Keep in mind, the 3D model is still being worked on—WIP!
Simplistic serenity of 3D Art
This is the main protagonist you will be playing as in “A Shadow’s Trail, episode 1”. We would like to show this image before the color UV texturing process begins. Black and white truly captures the essence of art—simplistic serenity
Official concept art
Did you know ninjas usually dressed up as “peasants” to undergo missions in daylight?
Low-poly, game ready model
Here is a low poly, game ready 3D model of one of the ninja allies in “A Shadow’s Trail”………..This is without the 3D model being UV textured—which is currently being worked on.
Environmental art
We successfully got algorithms controlling the style and the use of textures in our environmental art. For example, this is a tree stump and we want to add moss to it. The team can control the level of moss on the tree stump using sliders and vertex paint.
Prototyping and testing animations.
This a low-poly test model that we are testing our animations on. This is NOT the character you will be playing as. Prototyping is a very critical aspect when developing a game. For too many indie studios will just rush to show a graphical, art driven demo or even a trailer, but the game play is totally broken. Too many studios have went down this path and never made it to light. We will never take this route. Heck no!!!!!! #AShadowsTrail
3D models being implemented into the game
The Squeaky Grease Productions team has been moving rapidly with the game demo. Testing animations, game-play logic, adding environmental art, and much more. Check out one of the 3D ninja models in the game. #AShadowsTrail
