3rd Person Souls-Like Prototype
Creating an action RPG with the core features of the popular Dark Souls series of games
What it is:
This prototype was created as a starting point to iterate further on a skill based, combat focused, RPG experience
An intelligent 3rd person camera system was designed to avoid collisions in tight corridors while allowing smooth lock-on functionality. Inverse kinematics were used to adjust the character foot and leg heights naturally. Multiple animation sequences were created so that they would register and react from a variety of angles.
