GALLERY - wk8 refined
About
The refined version of my mini brief - gallery
(Check the previous version here)
When you are standing in front of a piece of work in the gallery, do you know what's behind it?
This is a short piece of interactive story exercise that allows players to zoom in and out to explore the 'layers' of a series of work and the story behind them - a very short story about a fighter pilot's homecoming during the second world war.
The story is inspired by - The Repair Shop, S04E13 - the Spitfire model.
HOW TO PLAY:
-SCROLL UP or DOWN to zoom in or out between scenes (Picture, Art Gallery, Camera, Photo Gallery)
-PRESS I or O or the ARROW KEYS (or click on the buttons) when the keyboard icons are POPPED UP to interact inside the picture view. (For example, in the picture below, I is not pressable, and O is pressable.)
-Try to move your mouse around inside the game window. (mini plane+compass)
-Click on the shutter to take pictures & click on the gallery albums to check pictures taken.
-Better with earphones on
-The full playthrough takes 5-10 minutes, check the video to watch the playthrough with Chinese subtitles.
REFINED PARTS:
-Implemented the camera module and added some visual effects, players can see the picture taking animation and the pictures taken can now be saved in the gallery albums for players to check.
-Slightly changed the buttons, tried to make the UI guidance more natural and obvious. (hide the keyboard icons when they are disabled so that players are likely to be less confused + added some animated effect to prompt players what they can do or should do)
-Made the keyboard icons clickable so that players can play with both keyboards and mouses.
-Added the trail effect to the plane using the particle system.
-Replay.
-Removed some bugs.
FOCUSED ON:
-Screenshot & read pixels
-particle system
-textures and rendering

画
(第三周迷你作业的轻微修改版)
当你看到一组作品,你想过它的背后是什么吗?作为观众,他们又带走了什么?
一组简短的交互叙事,关于二战飞行员回家的故事。
灵感来源:The repair shop, S04E13。
初始场景是一个画展,观众看到一副白底映衬飞机的图片,名字是《回家》,创作于1943年。观众通过鼠标滚轮放大缩小,可以前进后退,穿梭于画面内部,画展,观众相机界面,以及相册四个场景。在画面内部,玩家可以根据提示,使用键盘I,O,上下左右(或点击图标)与画内世界互动,并且收集到一组名称各异的作品。观众也可以使用相机对画展进行拍照留念,照片会被保存在相册中。
全流程5-10分钟,演示见视频,附中文字幕。
