    Hey everyone,
    I have finally added a new biome to the game. The Outback Canyons. Here rivers have carved deep ravines into the surrounding plateaus which are home to all kinds of weird & wonderful creatures. Watch out for those cheeky emus though ;)
    Fun fact: This biome is based on a real place that I visited called Kings Canyon located in the Northern Territory, Australia. Very cool place.
    Thank you all for your support :)

    You've given the emu knees where it should have ankles! Bird knees are held really high up, close against the body and hidden under all the feathers. You wouldn't need to change the rig at all, just the animations to have the legs bend the other way.
    The eucalypts look really good.

    This looks so amazing! I cant wait to check it out when I get the time. One thing I might suggest is doing overlaying heat map type layers to create more realistic biomes, like what is done in a game called Vintage Story, as opposed to the cookie cutter type biomes seen in Minecraft. On my way to Steam to wishlist.

  • @noodledeboodis3352
    @noodledeboodis3352 Před 7 měsíci +1

    fire biome i guess average Australia spiders, but coming from an earlier video, the crafting system could be where instead of getting a set cut of an item, you cut the item yourself (like the tree from the earlier video), and you need at least a certain cut. (For example, you cut the tree and need 20x10x10 voxels or something to craft it. For nerfing purposes, you can only carry so many voxels at a time in a slot.

    I think it looks phenomenal. Well done. But I do feel like there is room for improvement. Mainly in the atmosphere of the biome. I feel like you need to create a feeling in the player that its unbearably hot and dry(maybe heat shimmer effects or sort of a dusty atmosphere). I dont really know how to explain it, but so far it looks amazing.

    That looks very pretty.
    I have noticed something while watching this video. The animals blend in with the landscape. Generally speaking that is a good thing. After all animals don't want to be seen. But I speak of a different type of blending in. I speak of texture. Usually the texture of dirt, plants and animals is quite different. So on close up they are very easily distinguisheable. That's why the animals have pattern to break up the form to blend more in on the makro level. But in your case the texture of dirt, plants and animals is all the same. It's all voxels that only differ in distance, color and shading. And that leads to a type of blend in that is not normal in nature.
    I just wanted to point it out. I think if you find a way to improve that it would improve the liveliness of this world.
