Project DIESELWAR
CIRCA 2021: Art direction inspired predominantly from the Wolfenstein IP + Matrix IP. The Design direction was inspired mainly from the TitanFall IP + DOOM IP.
Resulted in this interesting prototype that was like mixing 4 of these synergistic IPs into something pretty cohesive, and palpable at an early stage- as well as look, and felt fun and fluid to experience.
Gameplay Block out: Diesel Punk styled Matrix Sentinels inspired enemy prototype
Gameplay Block out: Showcasing the power of grapple tool (main traversal tool)
The destruction capabilities showcased on a (frozen) Soldat
Semi-finalized rig: I-Pose of one of the Soldat. With and without armor. This iteration didn't have as much wear and tear as I'd like
The game's mandatory limb destruction calls for each rig to be properly segregated. It being a robot, made it a lot easier. Note there are no armor panels here
Complexity of the rig grows with destructible limbs. The armor panels are plenty, hence the additional bones to handle their transformations
Cool ultra-real render of the arm limb
A reference board for that soldier
Mesh block out: The pistol equivalent: A heavily modified M1 Carbine with a continuous ammo feeder- because why not
Mesh block out: The mandatory shotgun
Mesh block out: The machine gun
Mesh block out: The sweet, sweet rail gun
