Super Bash Goats - Tech and VFX
Free Download of the game: https://somewhatbasicgames.itch.io/superbashgoats
Hello all! This is a free game me and my friends released a few months back. It started as a 2 week school project that we decided to work on a bit more and release on itch.io. I had an amazing and very talented team and together we had a really fun time creating this small party game.
I was the lead artist for this project and in charge of all the technical in game graphics stuff, and I made all shaders and materials, all foliage and VFX, and all post process and lighting, plus a few assets around the game. Most of the shaders use a noise that is based on the world position of the pixels to save on texture memory for features that should appear random with visual diversity.
In-engine screenshot - would be a shame if something happen to this peaceful scenery in the mountains
Gameplay footage - it shows the attitude of the game pretty well
Spawn - Goats always enter with style
Bash - The effect when a player dashes into another player
Bash-on-Bash - When two players are bashing into each other at the same time
Ketchup - When a goat is bashed into a rock it it explodes into a mist of ketchup ('cause that's what goats are made of, everyone knows that!)
Charge - Building up the Dash, absorbing energy from the surroundings
Charged - Maximum Dash achieved, time to unleash all that raw goat power
Dash - Flying towards other players to Bash them, like a tiny rocket of destruction
Jump - Effect for jumping and landing
The Playable map - Decals for the blood
In engine screenshot - I made all the foliage, wrote all shaders, made light and post processing
