A first early development gameplay teaser of "Sonorous - Deep Down Below"

Wishlist now on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2118900/Sonorous__Deep_Down_Below/

12/07/2022

Now got a craftable flashlight. I wanted the light to move independently from the camera. Still want to work on the actual "flashlight light" effect
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

26/06/2022

Needed a break from the intro scene development so I decided to make some WIP procedural crabs for "Sonorous." What do you think?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

31/05/2022

"Sonorous" Update: WIP of the interior of a cargo airplane. Currently modelling the interior & exterior along with different props & assets. More details to come.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

12/05/2022

"Sonorous" Update: Adjusted water surface, added bubbles when diving & new seagrass with interactive shader to interact with the player when close by.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

11/05/2022

Had some trouble with the transitioning between underwater/surface causing jitters and objects to disappear. It is getting smoother but WIP!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

03/05/2022

Currently tweaking multiple areas such as models, textures and scripts to further optimize frame rate and performance. Any remarks & suggestions for the overall look of the game?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

28/04/2022

WIP of a dynamic rope system I have been exploring. Still have to work on a nicer texture, but overall quite satisfied with the behaviour.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

25/04/2022

Now got a working storage system in "Sonorous" going! Aiming to have multiple storage types with various capacities.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

22/04/2022

The WIP submarine now tilts automatically when cornering (still got to apply a bit more smoothing). Thank you for the input! Also got data inputs for the console working.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

16/04/2022

WIP of the submarine in "Sonorous." Still lots to do like transitions & the interior. Hands are animated with player input. Not sure yet though if the submarine should "roll" automatically or be controlled by the player. What do you think?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

14/04/2022

WIP of the submarine you will obtain in "Sonorous" to reach deeper territories & move around faster.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

07/04/2022

Firepit Update: Caught fish can now be cooked, turning darker over time & signalling cooking progress over distance with black smoke. (WIP UI)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

05/04/2022

The crafted firepit can now be placed and moved. I like the idea to influence the UI with the heat displacement effect as well. What do you think?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

01/04/2022

WIP Added impact effects for the pistol along with new and revised reload animation(s). Thank you all for the great feedback!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

30/03/2022

WIP Pistol & Animation UPDATE: Thank you all for the great feedback! I tried to apply most of the input. What do you guys think of the new animations?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

29/03/2022

WIP Pistol & Animations for fending off scavengers in "Sonorous." Weapons will have a strong "used" look as they will be found in the ocean as you explore. What do you guys think?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

26/03/2022

Timelapse of the WIP Day/Night cycle in "Sonorous." The player will need to craft and equip light sources to navigate safer through the night. Any thoughts?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

24/03/2022

Due to the large amount of swarms in "Sonorous," each fish movement is controlled solely by shaders. This was a massive performance increase over using bones and animations. Inspired by the developers of Abzu!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

22/03/2022

WIP of the island you are stranded on in "Sonorous". Here you will build your base as you progress, with new items and equipment's to aid you in your survival.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

20/03/2022

In Sonorous you will need to hunt in order to survive. Crafting a spear and hunting fish will be one option. Bigger prey will need more than one hit and will try to escape.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

17/03/2022

Here is a first look at the underwater world that awaits in Sonorous!

Back to development! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I decided to stick with Unity. Even though Unreal offers some great capabilities for open world streaming, I actually built quite a performant eco system in Unity, especially regarding the fish swarm systems. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #gamedev #gaming #indiegame #indiedev #gamestagram #madewithunity #unity3d #underwater #blender3d #wishlistwednesday Back to development!

#madewithunity #blender3d Switched out my character & decided to go with reallusion character creator. I figured that this will save a lot of time later in the development of the NPCs & provide more variety. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Unfortunately, that means I had to revise and adjust all my animations which took some time, but rather now than later. Added optional camera shake to the player movement as well with an intensity toggle. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Wishlist "Sonorous - Deep Down Below" on Steam. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #gamedev #gaming #indiegame #indiedev #gamestagram #madewithunity #unity3d #underwater #blender3d #wishlistwednesday
