ProjectUNI - the first serious 3D unicycle game.

The New Face of ProjectUNI

In a blinding sacrifice of school work I have finished texturing the new character model. I think he will do well to represent projectUNI in the next phase of its development.

However now I have to get back to school work so progress will slow down for a bit.

A look back

Well its been a little more than a year since I created the first ProjectUNI character model. Its nice to look back and see how far I have come. I was fairly new to character modeling when I attempted the old model, so I think it is still good for where I was at, but I still like to laugh at myself. I hope I can keep up my level of improvement and keep creating better and better models.

Head Texture Progress

Update: I started to texture the helmet, and got him some hair. I will post a comparison of him versus our old head model in a bit.

Since this site has been receiving somewhat high traffic recently, I decided to give you another update, even though its not much.

I have been working on the characters head texture. It still needs a bit of tweaking but I am happy with it so far. I still plan on giving him some bangs using alpha cards, so that should just be icing on the cake.

Leave some comments, and thank you to everyone who has come to check in on us.

This is the new character model I have been working on. It is very much a work in progress, so leave some suggestions and check back for updates.

First update!

For the first update I present you with a brand new unicycle! I have been working on a model of the KH20 to replace the old shady looking one. This was before we decided on the new engine, so it should be receiving another face lift.

Let me know what you think.

ProjectUNI is alive and kicking.

Hello, and welcome to the new ProjectUNI. I decided to go the way of blogging, so we can keep you up to date on all our progress. Yes I know we haven’t had a lot of progress lately, but we are starting to gain some momentum.

First off Brian and I decided to upgrade to a new, more advanced version of torque. This will allow us to use shaders, and in general the game should be a lot more pretty on the eyes. Thank you to everyone on the unicyclist forums who helped test this new engine. During the tests everyone was able to run it fine, even on low end systems.

Finally, thanks to Olaf and everyone at unicycle.tv, ProjectUNI.com is now on better servers. Also thanks to Spencer Hochberg at uniflatland.com for assisting me in setting up the host.

Check back frequently as we should have more updates on the way.
