Anduo Report October 13th, 2023
Added 2023-10-13 12:00:06 +0000 UTCWelcome, cleanse thyselves with thy news from the creators! This moon is the full blood moon also known as total lunar eclipse. ๐
Clearly the blood moon sparks curiosity and the imagination of many, as well as in our circles, observe:
Bear:
Much of my time the past 2 weeks was tied up in finishing up the release of Rosas are red. However, I do want to talk a bit about a big thing weโre currently testing.
Weโre testing how realistic it is to port Erokin from Unity to Unreal. As Iโm sure most of you have heard, Unity has been in a lot of rough waters recently and we are convinced that it would be a good decision for Anduo Games as a whole to not only be able to use a single engine.
Iโve put a ton of work to port the core of Erokins current gameplay into unreal:
- Interaction system
- Walking / Running
- Zooming
- Rotate character towards another
- LookAt IK
- Moving mouth depending on voiceacting track loudness
- Dialogue System with simple 1-node for "Play Dialogue Line"
The task is still hard to grasp in scale. Weโve written out the rough shape of what needs to be done:
Iโll put some more work into feeling out how realistic porting to unreal is. Iโm mostly waiting on Animation work right now anyways, so this isnโt suuuper blocking right now anyways.
Still. This is pretty scary. I havenโt ever made anything even close to this scale in unreal. Weโll see how it goes!
The guard lady has now been summoned into the world of Unreal - can you tell the difference?
Jugger:

Thank you for visiting even amidst a blood moon, we wish the rest for the weary and have a safe weeks end. Stay true one of a Erokinโd.
