I am sorry you think this is ugly haha. This is not an actual game and this video does not represent final in-game footage. This video is primarily for demonstration purposes to show that the menu system is capable of rendering 3d models within it. The models are very low poly and the texture resolution was lowered deliberately to save memory. See earlier screenshots for better visuals. Right now, we are working on a much smaller game project and we will create an indie db page for it eventually. Thanks for the comment.

Description

Sorry for not posting videos for a while. This is not the latest progress video but an older one. This is a short video showing that I successfully created a working 2D/ 3D menu system with the help of the game state management's screen manager. I also got the menu system capable of displaying splash screens with transition effects upon the start-up of the game. The menu system also supports 3D models within it and description text when you hover over different menu items. I also got a sky-box functioning in the game. This video also shows the lens flare effect functioning and placed over the sun on the sky-box. Its tricky when the program is drawing 2d and 3d together on the same screen under the 'Draw Method'. Thanks to Shawn Hargreaves who provided the most efficient way to go in his blog post, I was able to fix my skybox. When I was mixing 3D rendering with 2D objects using SpriteBatch, I may noticed that my 3D graphics no longer draw correctly after you have rendered sprites. All of the models triangles and polygons appeared to be disoriented and stretched leaving tons of gaps and holes. This is because the SpriteBatch changes several device renderstates. At this stage the actual game is still in Pre-Production Phase of development and I won't be revealing too much until the game is near completion. For now, I am improving the game engine and plan to post more progress footage of it. To see more progress, visit the Steel Cyclone Studio's Facebook Page at: Facebook.com...

Thanks and I greatly appreciate your support :-D
