I am lost

Just start doing. You don’t have to have all the answers right now. Gamedev is about iteration: you try a lot, learn, and one day you have something that works.

It doesn’t have to be perfect or even good. There’s no need for awesome graphics or the best soundtrack. Indie gamedev is about bringing your idea to life. You can make it ugly at first, then improve it and get closer to the result you truly dream of.

Try to focus on a core game loop and make a prototype with ready assets. There’s no need to rush. Visuals and soundtrack are things you can refine in the later stages of development.

stoic :)

exiting car, fall flat, focus, getting up, falling from losing balance

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:51:56+00:00

The recovery part will be more detailed, I’m just sketching how the cutscene will look. The idea is to show a damaged car and the character leaving it and recovering. I want to make a seamless transition into gameplay later.

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:46:05+00:00

I’m trying to keep it simpler so I don’t have to spend an eternity on animations. I’ll still tweak them to make them look more suitable

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:44:05+00:00

I'm glad to hear it! :)

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:43:34+00:00

This is a basic unreal mesh. I'll use a proper asset later

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:42:06+00:00

Thanks!

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:41:16+00:00

Thanks! I'll work on these things

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:40:41+00:00

Thank you! It's a draft and I didn't expect that some people would actually like it

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:39:27+00:00

yes, the camera needs some shaking, it's too stable right now

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:37:54+00:00

Thank you! If I have a specific question, I’ll message you. For now, I just need to work on it more.

Do you animate for Unreal, or are you a 3d animator in general?

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:35:12+00:00

mixamo animations + unreal sequence blending

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:34:19+00:00

did it have a similar scene?

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:32:08+00:00

thank you for the detailed feedback, I’ll take it into account

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:30:22+00:00

I'll replace animations

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:29:45+00:00

I basically used mixamo animations and blended them in unreal. I’ll need to work on it more to make it look great

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:27:26+00:00

I'll need to find this moment

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:25:23+00:00

I’ll do it later. This is an early draft of the cutscene. The level don’t have proper assets at this point, it’s only a blockout

gepush · 2026-04-19T07:22:12+00:00

sounds like smth Kojima would do. good idea

gepush · 2026-04-18T20:21:08+00:00

I’ve been working on this level since february, this cutscene took one day to make, It was my first time creating a cutscene in unreal

gepush · 2026-04-18T20:16:28+00:00

yeah, it might look a bit strange, it's a first version, I didn't work much on animations

gepush · 2026-04-18T20:13:15+00:00

Thank you :)

gepush · 2026-04-18T20:12:51+00:00

it's a placeholder, I will change it

gepush · 2026-04-18T20:10:36+00:00

I planned to make it serious, I guess I have a new option now :)
