And finally, here comes Trip Trap 2
It started off with just the idea of having in-game footage as the proof of concept - but some more ideas came into play during the project so now theres an bit of an intro and some extra stuff where the credits are.
Sorry about the poor sound quality, I'm no expert at sound stuff - I just use the tools that were available to my convenience, being a headset mic 'n pc. But yeah, voices were not part of the original game footage idea, so that wasn't too big of a concern for me.
It did give me the opportunity to make the credits more entertaining. Overall, t'was a fun thing to add.
Hope you enjoy.
Take care, be safe

That's pretty cool man, really looks like game footage. Sorry if this was said already, but if you get some time you may want to check out some of the free game engines out there. I hear Panda 3D is pretty good, free too. I heard Microsofts Visual Studio is free too for making games on the PC through XNA, but I don't know a thing about it unfortunately. Looks like it'd be a fun game though, especially if it's two player.

Totally digging the Final Fantasy vibe. This works really well - shame about the lack of an ending - but I guess this is an ongoing thing.

Since the models were used from Trip Trap 1, it saved me some time.
It was about 600 hours to do the rest - animate, music, sound, recording, magic effects, UI, etc...

Absolutely amassing! (I know youβre not interested in writing a game engine but why not modify one, they do that all the time)
You have no idea how much I enjoy watching your work and this one in particular is my favorite! Love the game-ish design of the whole ting!
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, modifying is also a good alternative to saving time, but yeah - A great deal of consideration went into weighting up what I wanted as a result of this Trip Trap idea. And I came to the conclusion of a pure animation that presents itself as a storytelling world with the abstract element of game mechanics.
So making this actually interactive where you can play the chars is not something I'm wanting as a direct result of this project. But yeah, theres a fair few other factors that come into play, given this is also for my folio, too - I'm still settling to find a comfortable workflow and experimenting sometime during animating n stuff - hence the lack of a real in-depth storyline in these animations.
Thanks for the comment.

1, very professional looking logo.
and 2, to me the characters feel out of place in a non cell-shaded world.

Just as a quick additional comment, I don't intend on turning this into a game.
So please, don't ask about it.
I feel that programming is an art too, and I truly respect that - but I'm predominantly a visual artist and thinker.
This is my expression of that passion.
Machinema? This would be considered the other way around, looking at my process in making this.

Dude, I'd be crazy to coment something negative/constuctive on this, you did an AMAZING job on this, Im still in awe
π: 0 β©: 0
Not bad. Not bad at all. Looks like it'd be real fun if it was a real game.

BRILLIANT!!!!
I love how this animation takes on the form of an authentic rpg video game, with health bars and third-person isometric views!! Whenever TN himeslf talks, I smile with delight!!

So totally and completely amazing hon! *HUGG* Can I play? Can I be played? I'm a secret character right? Hmmm? Hehe!

Looks like you took a lot of time into this, which it paid of tremendously ;3 Great job as always. I like how you introduced a bit of each character's personalities in this one. Great spell animation, too. Can't wait to see then next one, man ^^ Keep up the awesome work!

*SMACK* have you lost your mind!? LOL excellent.

So, is this merely a really in-depth animation, or have you built a game engine and this was (more or less) real gameplay footage?
