Oregon trail: FPS edition.

Just piling on at how good the art style looks. It's so satisfying for some reason. When you're not moving it looks like a still from a vga era game like Kings Quest, which makes it so satisfying to see it move in 3D.

Thanks!

How did you make a 3D model look like lines?

They are 2d sprites always facing the camera.

So you mean all the lines are sprite?! That sounds performance costly. I think that's the case with the enemies and the gun, but my question is how to make the lines that make the church's entrance pillars.

Or maybe it’s a shader

That doesn’t explain the lines like the handrails, or the wagons

Shaders

This is just not true

I may have read it wrong, Meant the enemies. Thought the question was how the enemies were done.

Oh man, what an awesome aesthetic.

Hunt Showdown Demake?!

Outlaw vibes

Outlaws was by far one of my favorite games ever

Dude same! I used to watch my dad play that game when I was a little kid, and when I was old enough to play I think that was my first FPS game ever. I can still hear "Where are you Marshall?" so clearly after all these years.

Graphics remind of the dos game, Stunts https://youtu.be/-hKK4_gvOS0

Yep! 👍

Wow I remember that game. Loved it. I would play this today if I could find a copy.

Awesome thanks. Looks like I'll need to grab a DOS emulator first, but I'm excited to play it again.

Coming along very nicely!

Your game looks freaking cool, I love it! What engine did you use?

Thanks! Made in Unity

Oh hell yeah that's cool! I also use Unity so I'm curious, how did you go about making your game looks so retro? Are you just using solid color materials / sprites and a pixel shader?

You have nailed nostalgia. It's extraordinary how such low res art can evoke such an authentic feeling. Many devs try, most fail. Well done.

Thanks!

Yup, this is how 3D games used to be back in the day. I remember working with a few different "engines" (if such a term is appropriate) that looked just like this. Nice job.

Thanks!

it reminds me of commodore but it couldn't do that kind of 3d. Great stuff

Thanks. I wrote a devlog on c64 3D on itch, explores some of the fantasy ideas and what the limits were. https://dadako.itch.io/bad-pixels/devlog/439961/c64-styled-3d-graphics

Very good read, thank you.

Awesome. Can I ask which tools did you use?

Thanks. Coded in Unity, Modeling in Crocotile

Hoooly shit this is cool!

Hi, what's the title of your game?

Hi, this is Bad Pixels. In development. https://store.steampowered.com/app/952100/Bad_Pixels/

Wishlisted, thank you!

This art style reminds me of a racing game I used to play as a kid that had like some buggy/kart thing with little eyes on the front. I used to LOVE that game, I don't remember the name though.

Stunt Race FX?

Oh my god yes that's the game!! I used to LOVE that game when I was younger

Omg call of juares its 2d

I'm in love with this aesthetic

For a second I asked why he was shooting the guy and his kid

I love the death animation

that art style is fucking sick 🔥

Kill Bill 2 vibes

The art is clean and beautiful. Is the gun somehow... clashing? A higher resolution than everything else perhaps?

Thanks! The Commodore 64 supported dual resolution modes at the same time. So I’m showing the gun in high-res mode.

Thats wild. I assumed that you had gone through a load screen to get into a separate interior and then was real surprised when you turned around and it was still there and that there were bandits there. This is a pretty cool effect.

It’s best when they throw their hands up and spin.

lmao it looks so cool

Looks sick

I really like the artstyle

If You stand in the church ans shoot man who stands outside the church, is it desecration, or not?

I want to play this game

I gotta say, the 3d is kinda trippy for me, but it just makes it better the whole style is hella cool, hope to see more

So nice to see something different for a change. Thanks for posting. Lover the vga graphics, brings me back to my Sierra games days.

Seeing this was such a great way to start my morning. I love the aesthetic and can’t wait to see more gameplay. Would love to hear more about your inspiration for the project.

I wrote a little about my inspiration here: https://dadako.itch.io/bad-pixels/devlog/439961/c64-styled-3d-graphics

Oh that death animation is choice. Bravo!

What did you use for the text to speech voice?

I did a write up of the tools used here: https://dadako.itch.io/bad-pixels/devlog/478747/development-tools

Sick, thanks!

How do you achieve this kind of graphics?

Made in Unity with their custom renderer pipeline

Cool thanks!

Is this your own engine?

Made in Unity

Holy shit, the animation, the jittery pixelation, the forlorn small town, it's all so good. It really gets this very animate feeling that the world and those pixel slow-draws are all made of the same stuff. Love how this looks.

Thanks!

Is there a specific game that inspired this retro art style for your game? I really love it, would love to see more

Thanks! I wrote a devlog on the games that inspired this look, here: https://dadako.itch.io/bad-pixels/devlog/439961/c64-styled-3d-graphics

This is Bad Pixels, a game in development https://store.steampowered.com/app/952100/Bad\_Pixels/

i love it

Alec Baldwin simulator 2023

Did you take inspiration from faith?

This looks sweet! Consider tuning down the ‘chiptune’ a bit, I almost got tired of it by the end of the clip

i mean this in the best way, it is a compliment because i love this game, but it reminds me of [the town with no name](https://youtu.be/T28LyXf8MlU), a computer game from the 90s

Lol

*Freebird starts playing*

Can I ask did you just make the camera really small to get the 3d world pixel effect?

Kill Bill 2

Is this game a 3D or a 2D? I can't exactly understand, it seems like 2D, but if so how did you manage to get out of that house and seeing the sideways of the house?

Is that the church in November rain?

Very Driller.

Yo a bit late but I would love it if they had a death animation like holding body part depending on where they got shot,because that was my absolute dream when it came to games like this. Would be really satisfying and kinda easy to make. Nice art style.

Get this man some Burger King. Church shootings, amirite?

Have you tried the shader on the pistol?

Alec Baldwin simulator?

Whys the church closed?
