Here's a GIF from VIRTUE, the game I’m developing. It’s weird!

VIRTUE is a platformer game I've designed using the open source Godot Engine. A large portion of its assets have been created by digitizing my physical art pieces using stop-motion animation. With a play-time of around 40-60 minutes, this demo is intended to establish a framework I can expand upon in the future, while still giving the player a fulfilling play-through.

I want to share this with you guys as a quick preview of what the game is looking like visually and how it’s progressing. This is only a concept piece to see how the assets work together - it’s by no means finished and there’s still multiple layers of digital processing to go over the top (lighting, blending etc). . . I showed a behind the scenes image at the end of last year that gave a bit of a clue as to what we were doing with the assets, and I can finally start talking a little more about it. . . We’re combining both stop motion animation with traditional hand-drawn animation in this game to create really detailed and immersive environments. In this preview, the trees and rocks are actually sculpted, and the rest is hand painted on paper by the wonderful @justin_donaldson_art , myself and @marydentonart . . I’ll share some images of the actual sculpt of the tree and more of our process soon, but for now, I hope this looks okay and gives you an idea of how Lunafon is shaping up. . . #indiegame #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment #gamedesign #ddraighouse #lunafon #handdrawnanimation #2danimation #traditionalanimation #lunie #gameenvironment #gameplay #platformer #tvpaint #animation #conceptart #visdev #visualdevelopment #traditionalart #watercolourpainting #nickerpostercolour #gouache #illustration #stopmotion #stopmotionanimation #stopmotiongame https://www.instagram.com/p/B7_-RofDo4h/?igshid=lfrx6xui2gb7
