      That's a great compliment, thank you! It's using a very different approach to producing the animation compared to the standard workflow. All the motion is driven programatically with rules and algorithms, rather than being handcrafted offline and stitched together at runtime as is usually the case, even in AAA productions.

    10 year old me would have blown a gasket over this. I was simultaneously a massive dragon nerd and completely obsessed with anything that flew, like flying toys and RC planes/helicopters. Growing up I always wanted a game that would let me play as a dragon and just fly about, but aside from a few not-so-successful attempts, like Drakenguard or Panzer Dragoon, such a game never existed.
    This is hands down and without exception the best version of this very niche game concept I've ever seen. This is the kind of thing that I would definitely have made myself, had I the skills to do so. 10/10

  • @kassyyar97
    @kassyyar97 6 місяців тому +132

    This is beautifully done!
    I would recommend to give more resistance to the bones of the wings, what I mean by this, the wing falanges look too flexible in comparison of the extensor, they feel like hey are part of the skin when they are actually bones.
    Thats a nitpick though, Im an animal animator so I dont think this would be picked up by the common audience.

    Other than the fingers being part of the membrane (simulation-speaking), it's absolutely gorgeous and just feels real. I adore a good handcrafted animation but I see the necessity of procedural in this instance. Honestly I could do only this flying around all day. The sound of the wings in the wind really sell it all.

    I love this, the dragonflight itself still needs some work as I can see the wings bending at strange angles. Other than that though it looks fantastic how it flies at a constant high speed and the wings look the right size for a dragon that large. In a way it almost reminds me of Lair for the PS3 from way back when, hopefully this one makes good on its potential though.

    Pretty good. The wing animations when flapping are not particularly realistic, they look stiff and rigid. Love the movements for the hips and tail, those look (movement-wise) the same as those in/of birds as the bird turns and starts moving in a different direction. The SFX of the wind are phenomenal, very nice. Good work, you are doing a very good job so far, especially since you are doing all the things (rigging, model design, SFX, etcetera) on your own without help.

    Complete suggestion, so take it with a grain of salt... I love the animations you have for the flight physics so far, but that doesn't mean it can't be improved! I would suggest looking into the animations they did for the flying in the Guardians of Ga'hoole movie or heck, even the Wii game they made has some pretty outlandishly realistic flight and combat mechanics for early 2000s. Maybe you learn a thing or two, or maybe there's nothing useful.
    Either way, I know a lot of people, myself included, already see this game as a child's dream come true!

I am very excited, no one has made a good dragon rider survival game yet and honestly it really ticked me, PLEASE let this be a game where you can raise your dragon and evolve it to be as big or bigger than Balerion The Black Dread, with Ariel Dragon battles with dragon combat, and maybe even customization like scale color, skin, and even fire color form Normal to just black and even ground riding and fighting, Mountain climbing, and even diving into the sea and swimming, and choosing your own path, like a hero to king, or a Tyrant, with choose your words, like a combo between assassin's creed Valhalla and Game of Thrones. Also with realistic reactions from the people when you land or just riding your dragon on the ground like a horse, and maybe even a revenge story in there too, Oh and Please let this be a game for PS$ and PS5 with a Single player Campagne story option, If that is Possible that would be Awesome, I have been waiting for a game like this to come!

      Probably yes, I haven't yet experimented with the growth mechanic. I need to see how far I can take it before things start to break lol

    I hope there will be different dragons in the game and not just the usual wyvern type. Would love to see the classical four legged winged dragon. Maybe have some Chinese mythical dragons or Ampitheres. Serpents and hydras would be cool too. There are a wide variety of dragons yet no game has ever really shown the different types of dragons in mythology.

    I really I hope I get to play this someday. It looks incredible. The only thing I would say in criticism is that the wings movement need a lot of work. They look very floppy and like paper just slapping around in the wind. This game looks amazing though.
