Dev Blog 16: Stylized Rendering

By August 29, 2018No Comments

With the core gameplay ready to begin testing, we’re focusing more on creating a visual style for the game’s art and visuals. After some discussion, we’re looking at stylizing our textures and post processing effects. Our small art team currently isn’t equipped to produce a photo-realistic cyberpunk world. Instead, we’re exploring cel shading and other stylized techniques.

Here is a before-and-after comparison for the rendering style we’re developing. Keep in mind that this is very early prototyping and very much a work in progress.

I recently hosted a game development AMA (“Ask-me-anything”) on my Twitch channel (https://www.twitch.tv/silastalley) where I showed some work-in-progress gameplay and chatted with the community about the game. If you missed it, you can watch an archive of the stream on our YouTube channel.

If you have more questions about the game, or want to chat with the development team, join our Discord server!
