Terminal 0.1 Log 01
Spaceship Shooter 0.1

a friend of mine and I had been working on this spaceshooter inspired by StarFox (but without rails) or and old pc game called Terminal Velocity, do you remember that one ?

So basically, there are some improvements on the ground texture, adding some layers and bump maps.

Some improvements on Terminal 0.1:


Enemy Fire (red one) with a better contrast, particles now leave a trail so it helps to understand the direction of the attacks. The second screenshot shows a “hurt screen”, bloody, red to let the player feel visually the damage taken. Among this effect the camera “wobble” when you receive damage, this last script can be found here.

Third screenshot shows a starting point for the player, a special pod where to reappear if the player dies. Le Checkpoint !

Also added a kill cam and some physics to the spaceship when your life reach 0 hp. give it a try to see what’s have been accomplished so far !
Control scheme beta design (I’ll probably add a couple commands)

So, if Starfox is an inspiration for Terminal 0.1, why not create my own characters? After all I like to draw too. I’m going to share with you 2 sketch characters for the game (SPOILER ALERT!):
The concept idea that I have right now it is to keep it simple, a main character and a commander.
The player receive quests [quests + complete them = advance the story line] (Yes, I’m planing a story)

Rain
My main character by now, not sure if it looks like a woman or a man (or a Alien) but Japanese do that a lot!, . It’s late and I’m tired.
He’s supposed to be a cold blooded thinker, maybe that’s why he’s blue(?)

Lila
This one is Lila, she’s like the BIG brain of the team, the hacker, etc, you know, all the information? she got it !, her CV says that she helped a lot at Wikileaks.

The dialogue GUI. In the game, it should look something like this:

with the background changed to actual gameplay.

thank you for reading, let me know what you think:smile:

Good stuff - Last photo though, it says “there seem to be activity…” - It should be “There seems to be activity”

sorry, my mistake, English it’s not my native language. I’ll fix that.

thanks for the feedback !
