Don't know if its just me but I do notice a slight lag in the video (Not sure if it is my computer or not) It is a great game over all, like the idea of it and carry on making it :) Don't really see many people do games that like anymore. Thanks for making a great game like these I enjoy these :)
 
Well there is no lag in the game, it's maybe the video recorder tool....
I'm working on this project from one year now, i try to always reduce polygon in order to have no lag.
Thanx a lot for your comment :)

This is oozing potential. Would you consider zooming the camera in to some of the action slightly when you're attacking an enemy?
 
Thanx for your comment heyimdandan :)
And thanx for your good idea, i love it and Will add it as soon as possible :)

I'm searching some ideas for more planet theme: on the video it could be a forest theme. I have think a desert theme with lots of Sand and cactus. Have you any more idea with there objects theme ? :)
Also any idea for enemy type ? :)

Fantasic! I give this game 4/5 GameMakers!
Your rank: Very GameMaker!

Thanks for making this. Always cool to see unusual little projects like this! This is why I love GM! =D

You made this in version 5.3a? Why? o:
He didn't. He said he's been using GM since 5.3. The video says GMS project.
 
wondering the same thing. It would be interesting to know why you did not upgrade to atleast GM 8.
Nope, this is a GMstudio project :)

RichHopelessComposer : Thanx a lot for your post :)

MEITdev I don't have a playable demo at this day, but i will try to put one as soon as possible ;)

hippyman Nope, i use my own way for animation, wich is just some 3d model rotation ;)

Thanx a lot for your comments, sometimes i feel a little discourage and i pause the dev. But when i read some message like this, i got a boost lol

Looks pretty cool! I agree some zoom would be nice, to see enemies and especially also the NPCs if there is dialogue/cutscenes.
I'll keep an eye out for demo.

I love the style of this, smooth but twisted, like Burton's vision of sculpture and architecture, or more like early League of Legends. I can't resist to admire this.

For improvements:
The knockback is a bit jumpy.
Try variating the attacks.
The enemies look like they only look different.
 
Hey, time to give some little news, the project is still alive :

- The main menu has been delete :
http://www.dubosson.fr/kiroe/scr1.png
And replace with a simple menu :
http://www.dubosson.fr/kiroe/scr16.png

- So now to select a level, i added the King's Castle map (with a casttle, some npc, ....) , and you can talk to a npc wich will offers you some quests :
http://www.dubosson.fr/kiroe/scr18.png

- Also, i added differents outfits to the mobs :
http://www.dubosson.fr/kiroe/scr19.png
(some of them got spells and others can heal)

- Lots of little improvement , bug correction, game size reduction, ....

- Now, time to work on a better player animation thanx to TheSnidr model format and his help on my project, and then some new levels inside the Castle in a nomral 3d map (no sphere shader) probably based on something like this : http://www.dubosson.fr/kiroe/scr20.png
:)

Looking good. Curious to see how indoor/outdoor spaces are implemented on this tiny planet.

Small note- in the last pics you just posted, the grass seems a bit dark to me- since its a flat, open surface, I would keep it so it fits with the highlighted other objects.

mob outfits are cool. keep it up!
 
Thanx a lot lolslayer and DividingByZero

I have a question! How many models does your game have? Also, how you managed to handle that good lighting shade without the HUD being affected?
 
Thanx a lot for your comments.

I have a question! How many models does your game have? Also, how you managed to handle that good lighting shade without the HUD being affected?
there are 128 3d objects (in d3d format)
And 20 .obj files.
Also there are : 118 scripts, 981 sprites, 116 objects :)
Thi is probably my biggest project at this time ^^

Awesome stuff. Where are people getting these 3d engines for GMS from?
lots of work but i initially use a shader made by TheSnidr, and you can find it here : https://marketplace.yoyogames.com/assets/498/planet-shader

 
New video with 10mn of gameplay :
A little introductory video when you start a new game, menu option with 5 languages, music and sound effect ON/Off, you can choose between azerty ou Qwerty keyboard, 20 levels, 9 weapons, music and somme sound effects....
I have to add some few things, like : damage bonus, differents ennemi IA, ... But i think i will be able to publish a playable demo before the end of summer :) :)

Tell me what you think of this video gameplay please :)
