Very nice, Marco! Silly me, I forgot to mention that the light comes in at a 45 degrees angle. No biggie, but what about stalagmites and stalacites? Also a underground pool with waterfalls splashing into it from above would be very cool. The caves should also be a little more interconnected aslo. Hope I'm not asking for too much now, please tell me if I do! The volcano-biome is also very nice, but could you add some fireballs/ash/debris? I think maybe the vultures would fit better in the desert, or canyon. In the volcano-biome it should rain fire and brimstone, I don't think any animals live there. Instead of getting energy from hunting animals, you could soar on the hot air from the lava. One last thing, don't think too much about realism, the main point is that it's fun to fly in. I liked very much what you did with the curling forms in some of the other biomes. As I'm using voxels, the terrain can have outcroppings, caves and more vertical features. But all in all very nice job so far! Thank you so much for doing this, it's really helpful!
No problem, thnx for the input its very constructive. I'll be more loose in the next ones, I do get out of hand with realism at times so thanks for keeping me in check lol. Next one should be fun ;D
Cool, I don't want to scare you away! The guiding question for me is: "Will this be fun/challanging to fly though?"
A bit more obstacles and several different levels. This may allow the cave to evolve. Some parts might have a high water level that there is verly any space to squeeze through, if you go low enough you might even hit lava!
Let's keep things interesting, added some more interesting varieties of birds, of course different eggs will give different variations of this birds, there are literally 100s of possibilities. Some of what's in here is: Phoenix looking bird, not sure if the fire particles will be possible but it would awesome lol A dark more sinister looking bird, maybe has an advantage at night for hunting A fat bird, he could fly slower but he can sure last longer! A glowing/phosphorescent bird, glowing in the dark is very useful. This bird has adapted to the darkest biomes, perhaps if unlocked you can enter and survive in places that have no light at all. A bird with huge wings and 4 wings, more on the fantasy side but nevertheless could be good speed wise but perhaps needs to replenish energy more often. among others...
This is their silhouette to more clearly see their shape. Also forgot to mention the one in the far bottom right corner, I was going to give him arms, in the end it didn't work out. But just an idea, maybe it would make him a better hunter!
Great work as always! I will starting to add animals to the game now to test them out, and hopefully I will have a very early test build ready by the end of january...
