Hello everybody,
Many things are happening around here lately. While working on the combat feature, which is almost done, we also closed the Alpha subscriptions and announced that we are preparing a Kickstarter campaign for Untold Universe!
We wrote an article about it on our Dev Blog, which explains why we are doing this. Feel free to read it and comment!
We will come back to these subjects in the future as the Kickstarter should be ready soon, but meanwhile, please let us introduce the first concept arts for the pioneer character!
The Untold Universe pioneer character design
What you can currently see in-game as the game character is a place holder destined to disappear, to be replaced with an animated customisable model.
The difficulty here is to balance two important aspects in our opinion: a character detailed enough to be equipped with many tools and clothes useful to fulfil your chosen role, while keeping it simple enough so it does not looks weird in a world of cubes and slopes!
We also worked on conceptualizing the different looks that your character will adopt depending on what needs to be done: piloting, commanding, building, mining... Some of these assets will depend on your current equipment, while some will be pure vanity like hair styles.
As you can see, the game will feature a male and a female character, and will be given the opportunity to differentiate itself from others.
So tell us, how do you find it?
