A Pirate Journey

A small adventure game in Unity, made by a team of three for a university course. I did the 3D modelling and animation, including Pirate Barry, his parrot and the ghost, plus the graphics and the project video.

Pirate Barry in 3D: a round cartoon pirate with a red beard, a hat and a striped shirt.
Barry, modelled, textured and animated in Blender.

My role

This was a team project with two classmates, so the game as a whole is shared work. My part was the 3D modelling and animation, including Barry, the parrot and the ghost, in a stylised cartoon look: base mesh, texturing, rigging and movement animations, until the characters worked inside Unity. I also made the graphics and the project video.

Process

The project video, which I made, goes through it in this order:

  1. 3D modelling
  2. The pirate's walk
  3. The pirate's jump
  4. The ghost
  5. The props
  6. C# and the theory behind it
  7. Gameplay
