ABOUT
sonic is the development name for my homebrew nintendo ds 3d game project. some notable features include skeletal animation, static & dynamic point lights, shadow volumes, skyboxes, object & environment collision detection, gravity, stylus picking, and multiple linked maps support for large worlds.
in the hopeful future i will build the game logic, a.i. and scripting. i'll also attempt an interactive 3d map builder on the DS for easy world creation, real-time light adjustment and object & creature placement.
please be aware that this project is in its very early stages of development.
SCREENS
the following are only emulator captures. the game is brighter and smoother on the actual hardware.

being neither an artist nor an animator, i currently use some textures and model data from bioware's legendary neverwinter nights. this is temporary and for testing & research purposes only.
