I barely set up the physics for the enemies missing limbs, but I just realized they're actually really good for kicking!

Still polishing my cargo-container, I made the support frame yellow so it catches the eye a bit more.
My primary concern is maintaining a consistent art style. Do you guys think I should keep polishing it, or move on?

Made a large cargo-container! This will help flavor my scenes a lot, since I can use them to create pathways. These are found mainly around hangars.

Sometimes I'll just sit and reflect on just how far I've come in just 6 months of development.
Every polygon modeled, every UV wrapped, or keyframe animated, all by one developer. You cant get more handcrafted than this.
No ai. Just years of study. I'm good finally.

Working on the crashsite location I talked about the other day, this is what I currently got.
I plan to add sparks and fire too, and overall polish.
I really needed something to make the wheat field more interesting.

Working on a new asset pack for the game: wreckage.
I have a 'shipwreck' location planned, and I need wrecked structure pieces regardless. So these build pieces will be an enormous help.

If you're wondering where I get the crates for my screenshots, now you know!
Each location in my game needs to make logistical sense, not just look pretty.

I've been posting less because I've been busy making smaller items for interiors, at the moment they're just WAY too empty.
Dev is rarely a straight path, progress wise. And this is one of the low points. Sept is the month of modeling for OWTS!

Reworked my landscape cliffs so they blend better in the environment. Now there's roots dangling down, and grass curling over the edge.
Do you think it's better this way?

It gives the player a stronger sense of direction and makes the path more readable.

The game takes place on Endelon, a planet dedicated to farming. This facility processes agricultural goods before shipping them.
I'll be adding other areas too, like barns, rows of sci-fi trailers for workers, swampy lakes, and so on.

Still working on the narrative system since my game lacks voice actors, it's purely text based.
I made the Ui widget in blender by rendering a smoke simulation with lazers. It's meant to have a futuristic hologram type of aesthetic.
How's it look?
