I’ve recently come in contact with a 3d modeller who is willing to help out with some basic models for the game, thereby allowing me to focus more on the actual coding and designing 🙂

I’ll post a link for his portfolio/showcase later once I get it 😉

His first addition to the project is a little prism-like gem that will replace the yellow gem/coin thingy that we have in the game for bonus/pickups 🙂

I’ve added it to the game and tried out a Diamond-effect on it… didnt quite work as I had intended, but rest assured, it will be sorted once we figure out how to make a purdier looking one 🙂

Anyways, here’s a bit of camera-scanned concept art from TastyGraph’s sketchbook and flickr page 😉

Gemstone and 1up heart concepts

End of Level Portal, locked and unlocked 🙂
