Hello everyone ! This week I worked a lot on the creation of dialogs box. These will be visible during cutscenes. To avoid writing redundant code, I created a script to create them. It will save me a lot of time. The creation did not cause me too much trouble. It was enough to know which GameMa…
Hello everybody ! The last week was dedicated to the creation of NPCs for the first cutscene of the game. Since the first cutscene takes place in the HLB (Humanity’s Last Base), there must be NPC characters to fill the base a bit. So I created 9 differents NPCs with the help of Game Character Hu…

Hello everyone. Today I worked on the main menu. So I had to find a texture pack that was in science fiction style. When you pass the mouse over a button, the color of the button changes. Same thing when you click on it. I also include a little music that was made by a great artist: http://elit…
