Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What is the Zenith Project? I think the Zenith project is a combination of learning something new and celebrating what we have already learned at freestyle. I chose to make a game in unity for this project. In the beginning it started as me wanting to get better at game art and drawing but in the end I spent more time learning about new softwares and coding. I wanted to do all the steps for planning a game with game art and then executing it with 3D modeling and coding. I researched different indie games and their art styles. I drew my character that I was going to put in my game according to the contemporary\/picture book look that I wanted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This project was a risk for me because I’ve never tried game development before, it required way more coding than I thought it would. I also had to get used to a new software, Unity, which is the game engine I made my game in. I’m someone who’s always seen coding as very intimidating, so when I was going into this project I knew I would be facing many challenges and would need some assistance from others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I incorporated the skills I’ve been developing in Animation class this senior year, which is the 3D modeling and animation pipeline steps: simplified they are visual development, modeling, texturing, rigging, and then animating. This process usually takes a mix of softwares and techniques to make one animated model. Below, there is a recording, my Zenith Reflection, where I talk about my zenith project even more in depth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
