Just One Bard
Just One Bard is an exciting PC game that our team of 5 developers passionately crafted over a span of 3 months. It offers a player-versus-environment (PVE) experience, reminiscent of MOBA games, with the added thrill of online multiplayer for up to 4 players. The game features 4 distinctive characters, each equipped with their own set of unique abilities (Q/W/E), and the ability to combine various items to unleash powerful ultimate abilities (R).
In Just One Bard, players will embark on an epic adventure across four captivating levels: the Space Ship Overworld, Medieval, Ruins, and Mine. As a multi-talented team member, I had the privilege of designing and creating the 3D art for the Space Ship Overworld, Medieval, and Ruin levels. Additionally, I took charge of designing, modeling, and animating all the characters and enemies in the game. Character movement is based on a click-to-walk system, and attacking enemies is automatic upon clicking on them. Abilities can be aimed precisely using the mouse, adding a strategic element to the gameplay.
Throughout the development process, my role encompassed being the team's 3D artist, animator, and level designer. We wanted to capture a nostalgic retro aesthetic by employing voxel models and creating frame-by-frame animations for each character. This combination adds a unique charm to the game's visuals. The levels I designed were carefully crafted to provide a smooth progression for players, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience without causing confusion. Moreover, we made sure to scatter discoverable treasure chests throughout the levels as a reward for exploration. These chests are filled with valuable power-ups and combinable items, offering an incentive for players to uncover every secret the game has to offer.
Just One Bard is the result of our team's dedicated efforts, aimed at delivering an engaging and visually appealing experience for players. As a developer with a range of skills, I took pride in contributing to the game's 3D art, animations, and level design. We are excited to present this captivating adventure to players, complete with its retro-inspired aesthetic and a wealth of hidden treasures to discover.
The game is made in Unity and can be downloaded here: https://www.startalegames.com/just-one-bard
