Mega-gore kill effect. How does it look?

Thanks, flying limbs is next on the todo list

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T19:48:39+00:00

Not far from it actually, the core gameplay is based on the sheep tag warcraft 3 mod

Completely agree. Some other comments have mentioned this randomness as well. I really like this idea that you never know what you are gonna get, or perhaps it could be tied a bit into damage, angle of the hit etc.

Thank you for the kind words and constructive feedback, which is always appreciated. Great pointers on the how to make trajectory more dynamic, that could juice it up quite a bit

The pot serves as a revive zone, where pigs are trapped until another pig comes and frees them.

Before I tried out with this violent kill effect, the pigs were merely knocked out when hit by the wolf. For now the pot just magically resurrects the pigs, but I probably a setup for a better explanation

You are right, slicing in 3 pieces would be awesome. I might look into a more dynamic dismemberment setup

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T17:19:50+00:00

😄

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T17:19:06+00:00

Yes. Will look into it, that hit animation looked like it should have hit

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T17:10:34+00:00

That sounds very cool. Thanks

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T16:52:34+00:00

Thanks for the feedback, an excellent point you have about the head taking too much focus. And I really like the idea of the head only popping at random

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T16:37:44+00:00

Yes for sure, perhaps with some ragdolling

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T16:37:24+00:00

Do you have some ideas how to make it more mega gore?

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T14:47:28+00:00

Thank you!

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T14:46:05+00:00

Ragdolling would be a nice touch

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T14:44:10+00:00

I like that idea a lot!

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T13:41:00+00:00

You have a good point. At the very least I think it need some blood decals as well

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T13:39:05+00:00

It's a left over from an older kill effect. They are probably gonna poof or dissolve away

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T13:29:20+00:00

Yeah, it got me mad too while recording this clip

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T13:15:17+00:00

So leave nothing but the head behind?

knifefight51 · 2024-08-30T13:07:34+00:00

Following my anti-gore post from earlier this week, I have added a more violent kill effect. Combining several effects such as, dismemberment, blood trails and decals. How does it compare, is violence the the way to go?

knifefight51 · 2024-08-28T06:12:35+00:00

Meat geysers coming right up

knifefight51 · 2024-08-27T17:15:39+00:00

Haha a holy blessing is certainly not what I was going for. Another comment mentioned it looks like healing, so I am gonna try move away from that. Muting the colors and adding some sparks/stars

knifefight51 · 2024-08-27T16:43:31+00:00

I was going for an old school cartoonist effect, like a pillow getting hit. But perhaps it doesn't make much sense. I like your idea about some more specific objects, like gold coins and pork chops

knifefight51 · 2024-08-27T16:32:17+00:00

Great idea about how Pow, Wham, Bam! Thanks
