worldly details->

The Bushsand empire and the Tundrafrost empire are both in the early-to-mid iron age, the other kingdoms are in the middle of the bronze age.

Glass hasn't been invented yet.

Owning books or knowing how to write isn't common, but not rare, about 65% of the population knows how to write, and about 75% of the population owns books, 90% of the population knows how to read. books/most papers are usually parchment or papyrus, official records, birth certificates, contracts, written laws, ect are usually written on wood, stone, or clay tablets. Most writing utensils would be brushes, basic feather ink pens, or very basic charcoal pencils

Rudimentary explosives do exist, mostly in the form of leather bags or hard-leather balls or canteens overfilled with rendered animal fat(usually whale or seal blubber, but pork and beef grease will do) when doing large scale bombing(buildings and such) it'd either a be a big barrel of the grease. The most advanced personal weapons are crossbows and shootspears, while many hunters still prefer traditional bows, these other weapons are better with huge game(elephants, trunkos*, dinosaurs, hippos, moose, ect) and as weapons of war. There are two main types of crossbow, the warbow and the slaybow. The slaybow's mainly for hunting, being a more traditional kind of crossbow shooting bolts. The warbow is mainly a weapon of the battlefield, having larger barbed bolts with a heavier draw weight than other bows and crossbows. Shootspears can be described as a modified longspear, being handheld projectile launchers that use elastic bands and triggers to fire deadly mini-spears, small sharp-rocks, which load and fire one at a time(think single-shot rifles or slug shotguns) with elastic springs that release when the triggers pulled. As for large-scale weapons, catapults, titanbolt launchers, and barrel-bombs are common

Most fabrics can be found in the Eastern Empire, since harpies are the most dexterous and can actually make these things, but trade means that some fabric finds its way to other kingdoms, and a few harpies do live in the Bushsand empire so some fabric stores are found there as well. This also means that overall, leather garments are more common in the non-eastern empires

Advanced candies don't exist, however, things like fruits wrapped in honey, baked cacao beans, honey crystals mixed with fruit juice all exist along with honey and fruit

Dairy products such as milk, cheese, yogurt, and ice cream don't exist, mostly because it's weird to drink another animals milk when your own young don't suckle so it's never been thought of.

Avetherians are generally omnivores, with a little influence of their species half in their diet, but mostly based on kingdom and personal preference(ex:a vampire bat-vampire ground finch would consume blood, probably would eat other things more often. Or a otter-stork would love fish, but would eat other things)

There are other sophonts on Ullante, but they'll be revealed later...

Humans don't exist on Ullante itself, but there are some magic cave-portals that take you to earth(no, avus can't and don't use magic or know what it is)

Magic does exist on Ullante, but avus can't use it. The magic manifests itself in the cave-portals, enchanted items that are found throughout the continent, they cannot be made or destroyed, simply used, the magic also manifests in super-powered individuals.

All real world species of plants and animals are found here, as well as some creatures from Dylan Badja's Serina(bumblebadgers, squorks, canitheres, tribbats, grapplers, trunkos, carnackles, ect), tribbetheriums hamsters paradise(marewolves, tigerillas, ripperoos, rattiles, slaybers, hamyenas, lycanines, walkabies, rhinocheirids, ect), and Keenan Taylor's Kaimere(Nokutlak, rukel, bokodu, dire jackal, greater baboon lemur, ect).along with these beasts, there's also creatures that's gone extinct in the last two centuries(thylacine, dodo, passenger pigeon, Falkland islands wolf, Caspian tiger, ect). There are also some animals that are downright prehistoric, such as dinosaurs and ice age beasts, not many but some:sauropods, yi qi, ambopteryx, tyrannosaurs, spinosaurs, mammoths, smilodon, megaraptorids, and Madsoiids. Animals that won't be here are almost all molodonts and circaguadonts, the only exception to these are sawjaws

Where all the empires touch, there's an area 5 times the size of New York City where avus of all kinds mingle with no disturbance, and everyone mostly gets along, with bustling markets, diverse population. The place is called Alshoon

Avus classes->

Gryphus:avus with the mammal half of any extant pawed mammal(felines, canids, bears, most mustelids, anteaters, digging animals) and any extant bird, reside mostly in the Bushsand Empire

Hippus:avus with the mammal half of any extant hooved mammal(this means both the obvious, and the less obvious, like aardvarks, elephants, rhinos, hyraxes, and bandicoots) and any extant bird, reside mostly in the Savanah Empire

Harpy:avus with the mammal half of any primate and the bird half of any extant bird, reside mostly in the Eastern Empire

Pseudo-harpy:avus with the mammal half of any non-primate handed mammal(most rodents, some mustelids, most marsupials, and raccoons) and the bird half of any extant bird, reside mostly in the Eastern Empire(they're called harpies because they don't see the difference between a primate and any other mammal with hands)

Dromaeus:avus with the mammal half of any extinct mammal and the bird half of any maniraptoran dinosaur, reside mostly in the Tundrafrost Empire

Palaeus:avus with the mammal half of any extinct mammal and the bird half of any extinct bird, reside in Alshoon

Kingdoms->

Bushsand Empire:home of the gryphus

Taxes:anyone who rents land pays a biannual tax to whoever they bought it from, if it's the land was bought from a royal, than a monthly tax. Payment is usually money, but could also be goods or labor, it depends on the owners preference. If you own land, none of these things matter and it's just a small annual tax.

Common exports:stone(lots of quarries and mines, so stone is common), leather and meats(hunting is a very common sport/occupations there), and gemstones(natural byproduct of mining, plus it's plentiful in the badlands)

Food:

Tundrafrost Empire:home of the dromaeus

Current monarch:Emperor Core

Capital:Danyix

The Tundrafrost Empire is a land of cold ice and snow to the north of the continent, often with blizzards lasting days, snowing 9 months a year. They're in allegiance with the gryphus of the Bushsand Empire

Taxes:anyone who rents land pays an annual tax, but if bought from someone of importance(royal guard, infamous war veteran, ect.), than a biannual tax. Payments usually money or labor, depends on preference. If land is owned, then just a small annual tax.

Common exports:leather and meats, water, precious metals, furs, gemstones, and lumber(lots of forests in the southern woods)

Eastern Empire:home of the harpies

Current monarch:King Locustpine

Capital:Ourukh

The Eastern Empire's a massive stretch of forest that lies on the eastern edge of the continent, with temperate woods in the south, jungle in the middle, receding to cold pine woods up north. The kingdom has 2 very significant social classes:hightrees, the rich elite 1st class that live in expensive big houses up in the canopy, and the groundlows, the ghetto downhome 2nd class that live in shacks and cabins

Taxes:any hightree who bought or rents an estate from an average hightree pays an annual tax of money or labor. Any hightree who bought or rents land from a military official, a council official, or a royal pays a monthly tax of money. Any groundlow that bought or rents land from a hightree pays a huge monthly tax of money, and a sales tax on food, materials, and fabrics(also huge)

Common exports:lumber, fabrics(silk, cotton, and wool), seafood, gemstones, and poultry.

Savanna Empire:home of the hippus

Current monarch: Queen Stampede

Capital: Balamn

The Savanna Empire's a relatively average sized kingdom mostly along the southwest of the continent, being a terrain of grasslands, prairies, rolling hills, and lowlands.

Assignment 3 Group Formation

Our group of four has decided to make a mash up of my Titan bolt idea and a SHMUP that another team member made. His design is really great. It's asteroids-esque however instead of repeatedly shooting projectiles we are going to use one projectile that you send out and can then control it's trajectory as it pings around the screen like Yondu's arrow from Guardians of the galaxy. The team really liked the assets I made for TitanBolt so I am going to start making a bunch of space assets in pixel art style as oppose to the cartoony style the SHMUP has at the moment. I am really excited to play test this idea as I think it will either be a fantastic dose of eyeball heroin in the style of tetris effect or way too much to handle to make it playable. Either way it will be a fun tool to study other class member's feedback. Here is the look of the SHMUP at the moment.

Some very basic sprites of Zeus from Titanbolt, some Titans and my current iteration of the Mount Olympus background.

Asteroids Postmortem

So the sprites I made for Titanbolt seemed to go well. They are fairly basic but if I dedicated anymore time to them I would be chipping into my other uni work. I do like doing pixel art though, I find the colouring of tiny squares quite soothing. I was able to make most of the sprites I set out to make. However I am not completely happy with my colour use in the background as Zeus as a character is fairly lightly toned so I might need to change the background to make it bolder. However I am fairly happy with the titan designs so far. While they are simple it means they will be fairly easy to recreate and animated if I want to do multiple animations. I sort of went with the elemental versions of the titans so one fire, water and wind. I am still tinkering witht he Earth titan so maybe if I continue to develop this game I will attach it in a following post. Overall the playtesters said my game was fun to play. They liked the theme. A few suggested I tone down Zeus' fire rate which makes sense as it was still set on the Asteroids fire rate meaning Zeus is throwing thunderbolts at rate of a baseball pitching machine. Another good suggesting was to create lesser titans that the larger titans could splinter off into once they are hit. Currently they just disappear but if I have more time I might make smaller titans for them to change into. I have attached various screenshots of the game and titans in their current form. Cheers for reading!
