BD_DESIGN'S PROFILE

Just another ex-gaming industry hopeful, going to school and learning as much as I can. I don't think making a game will directly affect my chances of getting a job, but it will teach me the process as well as organization, something I sorely lack. I'm no longer working for Zynga, which is too bad.

What else? I like Japanese food and cinema (but I'm not an otaku), CRPGs (of course), electronic music (90's Industrial FTW), Belgian ales, meat cooked over fire, 420, CGI, 3D animation, cats, SNES, subversive or black comedy, dystopian sci-fi, and any epic fantasy brave enough to step out of the Tolkien shadow.

My dislikes include all forms of bigotry, country music, fast food, factory farms, multinational corporations, warfare, social networking, romantic comedies (in general), and politics.

You know what I want to say right now.


Well shucks, don't let little ol' me stop you.

This takes me back to old-school Newgrounds.

Compared to the other two stats, creativity sounds... uncreative.

Good to see Meg Foster still getting work.

The right side of the station is lit, but the sunlight seems to come from the left. Might want to flip the station graphic.

Actually, a better approach would be to have the mist thicker, then have it thin out as you approach the lights, and then thicken as you move away from them. When you have mist or heavy rain, the light gets refracted through the water particles, which would expand and diffuse the area of illumination, and give the mist the color of the lamp light. If you look at pictures of a foggy street at night, you'll notice that they are very bright.

Get rid of or edit the round glow, as it is now it's more suitable for torches (specifically ones on a horizontal-facing wall). They're also off-center, like the light source is at the tip. The lanterns have tops that would direct the light downwards. Also, all I see is the glow, but the lanterns don't actually seem to be lit.

Here are some examples found during a Google image search:

You can see the effect of the fog and the lights in the background, and on the lantern up front, you can see that the top is dark because the cap is blocking most of the light.

The pix on this page shows the effect that mist has on light, especially the night shot.

At least he didn't say "poop deck."

The top and bottom UVs should be planar mapped, Then you'd avoid those distortions.
