Nice. That pixelation of your characters really works well and the animations are great But I feel like you're missing the same effect on the environment itself, which still feels very 3Dish. I think its mostly because of the flat surfaces with lights on them that causes these smooth gradients. Maybe you should add some pixelated tileable textures to the environment? Just a suggestion, looks awesome nonetheless!

Thanks for all the suggestions and feedback guys I'm happy to say that I've managed to add in a lot of technical stuff that I will come in handy for the rest of the game. Level Of Detail System based on Camera Distance for additional detail on Close up Events being the most apparent one Link to a video of the latest game-play footage : Getting Hitched in a little over a week so the next update will probably come mid-march, also hoping on having a playable demo by end of March! Again, thank you for all your support and interest.

Hey guys Was able to put together the first alpha build. I was wondering if anyone would be able to test it on windows 7 or windows 8. I'm mostly interested in seeing if the Fullscreen / Windowed modes work correctly. (Options Menu - Lower Left Corner) Windows Alpha Link: http://dickrico.com/dev/builds/DickRico_Alpha_0_21.zipCurrently You can walk around the two starting areas. Talk to Detective Cas Inspect the Dead guy Retrieve one item. Inspect/Look at a few things Thanks for your help ahead of time.

Yeah, I could also see the cursor. Couldn't exit either. How do you leave a zoomed in scene?

Thanks for the feedback guys @Leo J : You leave the zoomed in area currently by mousing over the lower right corner and a "Leave Examination Area" icon appears. @0x78 : Thanks for testing, I need to figure out this cursor situation. I need to tweak unity to hide that cursor somehow. @Superb Joe : Haha, we are yet to see! Today I'm just gonna drop some new art assets on you guys, been doing a lot of world building.

since i was ignored in the other thread about a detective game, i think you should consider naming the protagonist Detective Dick Liquor

You can walk "underneath" Allan, but is looking pretty good so far

This looks fantastic! Downloading the demo now.
I've used AGS in the past but never Visionaire. It seemed a little clunky (which is weird if you're comparing to AGS I know) but I noticed you now ported over to Unity.
Did you build the engine from the ground up or did you use the Adventure Creator add on from the asset store?
Good job!

@ amateurhour: Hi and thanks for your support Yeah I started out the project in Visionaire Studio but I like to work on my macbook a lot when I'm mobile and it the latest update to their engine broke the ability for me to be able to do that. I wasn't able to work when traveling so I decided to switch over to Unity. This should not take away any credit from the Visionaire guys as I really enjoy their engine and I hope they make it work for OSX as it should. And yes, the move to unity was only possible due to Adventure Creator. It took me a few days to figure out how to migrate over but it wasn't too difficult, I totally recommend it now that I've gotten a hang of it. Chris , the creator of AC answers technical questions on their forum on a nightly basis so problem solving is usually no more than a 24hr thing.

Yeah he posted about it in the AGS forums and honestly I think a lot of people who aren't the "old guard" have switched over to it since AGS will NEVER have true multiple OS portability unless they rewrite the engine from scratch. I LOVE AGS but it sucks making games that can only run on windows. (with few exceptions)
I need to pick up AC and Unity and start playing around with it. So I'm curious as to how you've build the game in AC. Did you use his 3D system or his 2D system? It looks like your characters have rigging and are 3d objects on a 2d surface so I wasn't sure.

@ amateurhour: Hi : When you get AC you have to import it into a new unity project. The import comes prepackaged with both the 2D scene and 3D scene demo. You can use either one to start working on your adventure. I'm personally using the a 2.5D system that I'm still working on getting to play nice BTW there's currently a #AdventureJam going on for the next two weeks, a very good time to make a short adventure game and learn in the process.

Congrats on the getting of the hitching!
I tried out the demo and the menu (lower left/and score) seem to be working fine full screen. Initially, at the beginning, my cursor and the in-game cross-hair had unresolved differences (my cursor would show on the screen and would be separated from the in-game cross-hair by a few centimeters).
I refreshed my full-screen (went out and then went back to full-screen), and it fixed itself.

Hey guys, been a little while since my last update. Here are a few new sets. Also here's the laundry room with a little "keep alive" animation applied. Thanks for your support.
