SSS(Shoe String Shooter) is a low budget FPS game which attempts to achieve "next gen" look. The game has no specific theme so you might find dinosaours, ninjas, cars and robots all together in the same game. It will consist of several small levels or maybe some bigger campaigns and also online gameplay. I will try to include any mechanic that looks fun, and not necesseraly realistic. There is the intention of making it look like an AAA title, at least from the technology side. Since the budget for the assets is a little on the short side.

This was just a promo video showing the Ogre I purchased.
Yes, I am planning co-op multiplayer fighting against monsters like that. I have more work doing on the AI and path finding although it's mostly complete.

The gameplay will roughly consist of fighting one or several monsters while the flash light will play an important part. Using the flashlight let you see further but it will also attract the monsters.
Gameplay is not final of course, but I will slowly work my way into something playable.

One of the reasons I chose coop is because it's not boring to play your own game when it's multiplayer and because it's boring to play a death match when there are only 2 people online.
So I figured co-op is optimal. 

Cheers.

Heh thanks.
Just took a look at your models, they are looking pretty good.
Maybe you can download the free sculptris from pixelogic and turn your low poly models into high poly!

A good polygon count for the models I use is about 9K or 10K for a character.
I also need baked normal maps and specular maps. And of course diffuse.
I can try out one of your models to see how it looks, though I don't promise I will use it.

Ok... I think you have too much polygons in game, not optimized for performance at all... I mean... Way too much polygons and with textures it would be a horror to play it on android...

The lots of polygon only happen when you have a DX11 compatible GPU on the PC.
There are fallbacks with fewer polygons for the PC as well.
For the Android it will automatically use the fallback.

@gameproducer I don't think battery life will change in a way that will matter for your charging routine.

21hours 19mins ago

@gameproducer I would go with 4g. Battery usage can vary greatly depend on what you do with your phone. You can drain it fast with some apps

21hours 35mins ago

@gameproducer Well I assume only idle battery life. Because there is no change it waste battery like when using all the bandwidth.

21hours 37mins ago

@gameproducer It's possible some people install apps that constantly use their bandwidth though, without their knowledge.

21hours 39mins ago

@gameproducer Well maybe they mean idle battery life. I am sure that turning off 4G consume a lot less than full bandwith exploitation.

@McFunkypants Funny thing, I noticed not everyone are like me. I don't play many games anymore. Does that mean all games are doomed? ;)
