Gnoblins is a kind of roguelike(-like) strategy game, in 3d. It is basically a dungeon building game featuring a group of minions, called gnoblins. With the help of the gnoblins you will be able to construct your own dungeon, while exploring other parts of the dungeon with a handful of your minions. Description The game is a dungeon building game. Building up your dungeon with the help of your gnoblins is one of the key features of the game. Besides this, randomized levels, perma-death, and crafting are further features. The whole world of Gnoblins consists of only dungeons and each dungeon is procedurally modified. The development spirit of Gnoblins is 'roguelike' too. Therefore we will provide an early access to game and hope to build up a game community to help us refining the game.

Cell shading rendering test in Gnoblins to improve NPR feeling.

Posted by on

Always looking to improve the non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) look of Gnoblins, here are two images showing off different rendering approaches, including two new cell shader. Currently the warp approach is in the game.

Gourand and warp and my favs. The reason for this is because of the shadows and the contrast between light and dark areas.

Nice work.

If you could somehow blend gourand and 3-tone, it would look stunning. Looking good so far, I prefer the 3-tone shaders!

I like warp but 3-tone wins it for me.
But besides that, great work so far.

Hey, thank you all for your feedback.
There's a great reception for 3-tone cel-shading, a reason to keep it :)
I will try to leave the other options in too, so that you can choose your favorite yourself.
