Ethereal - Playable Demo

[Sakar]

Here's a preview for a small game I've been working on the past couple days called Ethereal. It's a first-person 3D platformer, but I'll probably add some sort of puzzle elements and/or physics based challenges in later levels.

Let me know what you think

Looks neat Only thing I could really say is that the jumping seems a bit too smooth. Maybe you could add a "umph" kind of sound when the player lands, and make them buckle a bit upon impact. It would give more of a feeling for when the player has made contact with the platform after a jump, and is really necessary when making difficult first-person platform jumps.

Thanks!

Good thinking on that jumping idea, I'll get to work on it and see what I come up with.

Nice...good work so far! Love how you got it set, if you fall off, you start back at the top!! Though I agree with Jack, but then again, when playing this kind of game, using the "ball" there is no added "umph" or what not...it has that smooth landing...it just has the sound of the ball rolling.

Thanks Spirit! I've done quite a bit more to the menu so when I get some time I'll upload a video showing that.

Pretty cool. What are you using for this?

[Sakar]

Thanks. I'm using Unity for this project.

Haha A fun use for this is make a first person mario game, so play the game from his point of view

Thanks. I'm using Unity for this project.

Duhh, I should have noticed from the Unity splash-screen in the beginning..hah. Anyway, keep it up.

I now have a playable demo of the beginnings of random level generation. It's still pretty basic ATM (made it in like 10 minutes, lots more to do)

W A S D - Movearound
Mouse - Look around
Escape - Generate new level
Alt + F4 - Close game (all I have for right now)
