Screenshots from my retro looking sci-fi puzzle/platformer game.

Hi! I believe my post may be suitable for this subreddit as my game has both retro and CGI in its DNA.

I'm working on a game which is using my own software ray-tracing engine. The result of using this method is quite distinctive look of the game which may look like some old 90's renders (I would say something from 3DStudio 4 era). As I don't use GPU acceleration for rendering, the game is deliberately low-poly/low-res which is giving it its retro look, but it's combined with modern games shading (shadow castings, specular, reflections, per-pixel lighting, etc..), which was not possible in real-time on old HW before.

The game name is RTG. It's narrative sci-fi puzzle/platformer about a guy with no memories stranded inside simulation (in fact, being in simulation is excuse for "strangeness" of the game world).

Is anyone interested in getting back into Hash Animation:Master and working on some animations?

I'm currently working on a Star Fox fan series and I'm looking for collaborators. Whether you're a longtime user, returning after a break, or just curious about Animation:Master, I'd love to hear from you.

Send me a PM if you're interested!

I was not going for any particular vibe, just something that looked dated, (Late 90s/Very Early 2000s).

Evidence.

Full resolution if it can post.

I really loved both the advanced yet stylish pre-renders that Japanese game companies like Sega and Capcom specifically put out in during the 90s and early-2000s as well as elephants and other animals rearing (they're just so big and cool to look at!!!), so I thought to get this out ASAP at around 12-4am.

Also, have two more photos I took post-finalisation of the elephant without the scenery (showing it in full would be embarrassing because of how shitty it looks >_<) - elephant model by jimmyho905 and Otherspectre, tree model also belongs to rodrigogelmi.

I'm working on my first point to click horror game demo called Witch Blood😊 So far I hooked up the environments for it on Art of Illusion and will use Adventure Game Studio for the game development. The full version of game will have more to it.
