It begins.
Hi!, Chris here.
It's been 3 days since I started this project as a pretty rubbish dev, through those 3 days I've learned a lot and seem to be progressing a lot quicker with much more understanding!
Here's a little bit about what's what.
Future vision of the game:
As someone who does enjoy metal detecting, and have done so numerous times in the past with my Garrett Ace 250, I was interested to see if I could make one function in Unity, and so I loaded it up, got to work, and very shortly to my surprise, I had a working metal detector!
From this point I decided I wanted to make a full game out of it.
Client Missions: There will be missions that you enter from your Mission Board in your house, in which you will go to someone's house, or some site and find objects for clients, and receive rewards (You can also in some cases, if the client is nice enough, keep other objects you find while you're looking for the quest item)
Free Roam: There also will be a free roam mode, with a rather large map, plan is for the map to be somewhat British countryside looking, a couple of small villages with lots of farm land, some of which has some historical significance, You will be able to own a vehicle and travel to different parts of the map, to try to find the best treasure!
In free roam, anything you collect will be stored in your house on display, unless you choose to sell them for money. I plan for the environment to have a day / night cycle, and a weather cycle, both of which will affect where and how you detect.
That's basically it for now, I'm currently working on finishing off the functionality and making it far more pretty / usable. This will probably take a while. Hopefully the next update will have all the basic functions working perfectly, and looking snazzy!, we'll have some nice clean UI and also I will add more sound effects / ambience. (Was thinking about adding a portable radio which you can use, which is linked to Online radio somehow.. may be interesting.
Anyway that's it for now, Ciao!
