Hello again, I’ve got another quick update. I’ve completed all the captain’s chairs of the 9 alien species that will be in Icarus:
I find I’m spending more time on models than I had originally planned. The positive aspect of spending more time on modeling is that they are looking really good – at least in my opinion.
I feel that I will make a decision soon about how to do the various other species’ models. I could just re-skin them or I could completely remodel them. How important is it to have all these various models in a one-man developer indie game? I don’t know right now but I’m starting to think that players will be forgiving of some reused models with unique textures. As long as the color scheme of each species is conveyed in the model – I think the point will get across. And I can always come back to them after I get a playable version out there.
Thanks for reading. I’ll be back with another post in a week or two.
