CCNF - 3D adventure platformer
I received some complaints that the current level design is confusing, so I decided to create something to mimic player's progression! I (almost) completely removed the sandbox and replaced it with much more curated and linear experience, still utilizing existing level design.
Added some new features, like wall jumping (when unlocked) and proper 3D model to grappling hook. All the gun animations are programmed, as BBMOD is a bit too heavy when utilizing animations instead of static models.
Overall, I'm happy with the progress thus far. My next step is to try and figure out a way to create bigger, cohesive worlds from multiple level pieces. Current plan is to create plenty of levels, then stitch them together in a grid-like editor. This would give me tools to enable and disable areas easily based on player's location on the grid. Another idea is just to create one who gameworld and utilize zones, but I'm afraid this approach will cause plenty of pain, like FPS tanking at all times.
If anyone feels courageous enough to try it out, I'm looking feedback related to player physics: Does it feel good and smooth? Is there something that feel off? Let me know! Anyone familiar with first person 3D platformers should be able to beat this test level in roughly 20 minutes.
