Simple Kitchen Racer

[nrd2001]

Simple kitchen racer, avoid the obstacles and reach the bin at the end then the time is shown on the fridge. Other than the vehicle all the assets used are my own. 4 weeks work so far and would like to get some opinions any ideas?

thanks in advance.

Well so far pretty positive, I am sorry that I wont be working on it any more if anyone points out any probs with it I will try and fix but here it is, have fun.

I like it, pretty good job in 4 weeks! When I read the title I first read "Kitten Racers" XD

[nrd2001]

that would be so much better, thats what the sequel will be

[Piranhi]

Really good what you've done here. It reminds me of micro machines as well. Keep it up.

[tsmike]

Darn, I was thinking of doing something like this

What you've got looks really good so far, well done!

[nrd2001]

hey tsmike if you want to help out your welcome to do so I was just looking for a cool way of showing my graphics work for my portfolio.

That's really awesome.

[theanzelm]

reminds me of the oldschool game micromachines which I loved.

Have a look at it for inspiration!

[nrd2001]

Thats what I was going for I LOVE micromachines

[mikepurvis]

That looks great.

I don't quite understand what is going on with the camera, but that's nit-picking.

[CyborgGuineaPig]

Looks like BTB airlines for Serious Sam, I like.

[micahpharoh]

[Brokenteddy]

Looking really cool!

How are you creating the text prompts? Just a texture with transparency?

The textures are really sweet too.

[nrd2001]

Yeah just a simple Poly with a material instance which animates the uvs so the text stretches into view then stretches out again, then I change the texture of the material when the player enters the trigger volume to show the relevant message

This is by far the coolest thing I have seen on this site. Very awesome!

[nrd2001]
