BUFFET CATS

Himalayan player cat evolution spring 2016 - summer 2017

Buffet Cats flashback to some of the first models for the game!

They’ll become obstacles for Player Cat.

In actual game development news, I think I finally have enough trees and variations for now! Planning to try the terrain tree painting tool in Unity to see what that’s like.

So now I might put a cow inside the coop and think of Hersheypark... a high-five and a gold star for you if you know what I’m talking about! I’d need to break the coop to do this though...

Cleaning up the coop. Not sure what to do with the interior yet, other than hiding it with the shutters -_-

Tree 2: vanilla Tree 3: idk why I thought vertical stripes were a good idea Tree 4: ohh horizontal strips are worse because this looks like sludge Tree 5: not bad? But dangerously like a cartoon poop Tree 6: finally looked at reference. The result isn’t terribly piney but I like it.

Animation bloopers (?)

And now, for something a little different (?)

So far I just submitted to the Unity asset store, and I’m thinking maybe Blendswap and Github... not sure where else, but once I figure that out I will update!

Now that I’m seeing things in context, I’m not sure if the cats really need weapons. The original pounce-and-chomp attack seems to make a lot of sense already!

This snowballed very quickly from a walk cycle setup, to “IK sure works differently when there’s no knee or thigh” to “oooh let’s use this track to constraint” to bones twisting everywhere. Thus, the dancing chicken was born.

Potential weapons

The idea of cats in tiny vehicles has been stuck in my head for a while.

1. Standard chicken 2. The chicken who’s too tired to put up with you 3. Innocent chicken who does not yet know the ways of the world 4. Red alert chicken
