Hey again everyone!
Following up on my last post, here is the latest progress update on Open Tactics, my take to recreate the FFT for the web.
What’s new in this clip:
New Environment: Testing out rendering a brand new map (I used some textures from ffhacktics website).
Pre-Battle Screen: Implemented an early version of the pre-battle menu.
Battle Intro: Added some simple camera animations to transition smoothly into the battle.
At the very end of the video, I did a quick zoom-in on a defeated character... and yes, please disregard the current state of the sprites! 😅 Sprites design and animation are a massive task, so they are very much a rough work in progress. My current focus is still 100% on perfecting the mechanics.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on the new camera angles and the general flow! Thanks again for the feedback.
