A Golem for my Dungeon

My son and I discussed the rest of our game design, and this is one of the big bosses he wanted. I have to bone and animate him, as well as do a texture for the face. The walls of the room this guy is in will be textured the same as him. Tricky, eh?

very! I have an idea. Why not have him actually come out of a wall? make one spot where your wall goes much deeper than the rest, and make a model that is a negative of your boss, and ends up with a shape thats a square. Like a terrain that fits yoiur boss's body. Have the player enter the room, looks normal, then he just pops out of the wall, leaving behind a hold in his shape!

Gyaah!! I love it!! I was just going to start him out standing against the wall, but that idea rocks!!! (no pun intended.)

Okay, it's not a complete animation, but I've added bones and he now can walk!!

Thanks, MoG. I am very excited about this new game. My son and I have concepts for all of the big badguys now, and I am going to work on some 'related' smaller 'hallway monitors' the player has to deal with on their way to the end of each level.

Thanks, I will post screens as I model each of the characters and get levels in place. I am ready to start putting together the second level. There will be four levels total. I have some neat ideas for the level changes. If I get the effects I'm looking for, I'll post some shots. Heck if I don't, I'll post shots and ask for help!!
