The basic concept of the game is done and hopefully I can use this build to continue work on this personal project of mine. Originally, this concept was created around a year or so ago when I played (or watched my roommate play) my main comparable product, <em>Skygunner<\/em>. What this &#8220;game&#8221; is is a proof of concept. I wanted to get the idea and the experience down in engine to try it out. I would say that what I aimed for is what I got, even with my workload of 3 other game dev projects this term. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"566\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/1-1024x566.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/1-1024x566.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/1-800x442.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/1-768x424.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/1-543x300.png 543w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/1.png 1122w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For the music, I sadly didn&#8217;t have a track to use from the music composition class.

The waltz is still a work-in-progress and definitely needs work, but I needed something in the game and out of my current composed works, it was the closest in experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"566\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/2-1024x566.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3331\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/2-1024x566.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/2-800x442.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/2-768x425.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/2-543x300.png 543w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/2.png 1123w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"619\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/4-1024x564.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/4-1024x564.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/4-800x441.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/4-768x423.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/4-545x300.png 545w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/4.png 1124w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/5.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"562\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/5-1024x562.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/5-1024x562.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/5-800x439.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/5-768x422.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/5-546x300.png 546w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/5.png 1122w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The general design of the game itself was mainly designed from <em>Skygunner<\/em> but as I went throughout the term I watched more Ghibli movies and thus was inspired by both <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><\/span><em>Laputa: Castle in the Sky<\/em> and <em>Nausica\u00e4 of the Valley of the Wind<\/em>.

I&#8217;m a game designer\/audio engineer. I&#8217;ve done <em>some<\/em> 3D modeling but never to this extent. I wanted to use some particle effects for my plane trails, but sadly couldn&#8217;t get any of the ones I found for free working. I learned a lot of 3D modeling from this, and it allowed me to be able to do some basic modeling for my personal projects. My most significant point of growth would probably be designs themselves. I feel the concept designs of my character and the planes from my original comparable products have gotten much better throughout the term. Animation I had a very tough time on, seeing how I had absolutely no background in it. The fact that I made my modular parts was a very good idea, because it allows me to create planes very quickly. I didn&#8217;t texture them due to the different planes but as you can see, the planes themselves are textured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/7.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"559\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/7-1024x559.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/7-1024x559.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/7-800x437.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/7-768x419.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/7-550x300.png 550w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/imgd3500-b21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/12\/7.png 1121w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The NPC bird you see waving occasionally was originally the player character and would be in the plane itself but it was hard to see them in the plane thus they are an NPC.
