Chilly DevLogs from Alaska ! #23

Welcome to twenty-third DevLog for Alaska Gold Fever!


Hello travelers!



Devlogs are back ;)
In today's menu: a look at the gold mine, a bag of jewels, a landscape from Skyrim... from Alaska and more!!!
Get ready!

Everyone favourites: DOGS![/h2]



The dog sled will play an important role in your journey through Alaska. You'll be able to get around faster and stow items in it. Plus, you'll have company! You can "rent" up to 4 dogs from a dog breeder! These good guys will be happy to help you travel over mountains, forests, etc.!



This is what a single dog looks like when you break it down into its prime factors (don't do this at home!!)
Lots of fur - it's cold in Alaska, isn't it ;)
Fluffy boys - assemble!

[h2]Store your goods![/h2]



A sneak peek at 3D modeling of a major item - bags.
When there is a main hero in the game, I always wonder how he keeps all these items ?
He doesn't have any bags or backpacks! Is everything in his pockets? ! And how does the sword hang on his back, even without a belt? Magnets? :D



I'm of the opinion that most characters need to carry something for storage, even if it's just a small bag, purse or something similar. You have to keep your loot in something! It doesn't matter if it's 11 shiny pieces of armor or 22 swords (or 10 kg of gold)

So Steam doesn't allow me to upload high resolution gifs ;(

Here is what I can show in the best quality.



Join our Discord or other social medias to see it in higher resolution ;)

This is the river and the forest near the city, I can show you more in the next devlog



Yes, each leaf is rendered separately ;)
We got around 2000 trees in forest, each tree has around 700 leafes soo... yes our graphic artists are loving it :D
Just kidding :D
There are special tools to help with such tasks (in Unity or even in Unreal game engine) so don't worry if you wanna become graphic designer ;)

[h2]Gold mine [/h2]

Remember that old gif from Goldmine?
We kind of improved it (but now it's just a screenshot)
Better lighting and a few other things, oh and also a cart/wagon is now working which I'll show you soon ;)
