The similarities to Colossus in particular are so striking it is genuinely hard not to talk about the game in those terms, defining it primarily by how it follows or deviates from a now seventeen year old game, but I feel like I want to avoid doing so too much. I don’t think these comparisons to other games are unjustified. As a final small comparison, the somewhat sparse writing often has the cadence and feel, if not delivery method, of a Dark Souls game: the opening narration talks about a dying world ending with a repeated refrain of “Ring The Bells”, which immediately put me in mind of “Link The Flame” as a short, three word mission statement for your aims in the game. Added on top of this is a winter themed survival system which mainly comes into play in the spaces between, which, with the breakable weapons, warmth mechanics, gathering mystical items to exchange in groups for either health or stamina, and a handheld glider for easy vertical movement, feels mainly based on The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. It is a Shadow Of The Colossus-like, a game where you find huge creatures scattered around the map at the direction of mysterious, disembodied spirits, climb to weak points spread around their bodies and slowly bring them down.

No Matter tapped Unity’s features for innovative artists and designers.Praey For The Gods is in some ways an extremely easy game to talk about. Whether putting a monstrous giant/beast or unforgiving weather in your face, tiny No Matter Studios is building a big story with convincing material effects to match. This also allows action-packed interactions between the boss and any rigid bodies it encounters.” This “proxy” mesh allows No Matter to record the mesh animation and then translate it back into the physics system for high-fidelity output.Ĭhien and company are very pleased with the result: “The Animated Physics system allows players to climb and collide with our bosses as they are moving, while making sure that the collision on the boss is as close as possible to the visuals players see. The system works by having a slightly lower resolution proxy physics mesh – the same way you generally want to create lower resolution physics meshes for props. On a high level Unity allows animated meshes to have physics that move with them and interact with other physics accurately. As Parnell says, “Having players struggling in our extreme environment is a core Praey for the Gods gameplay mechanic, and tessellation helps us achieve it.” Setting up the snowy surfaces in this manner also enables No Matter to create areas of deep drifts where the player actually gets submersed, impeding their progress and heightening drama as they collide with the underlying terrain. So when the player or an object intersects with the snow we remove that section, giving the appearance that the snow has been pushed down, creating realistic footprints.” “Using tessellation, our snow tech pushes up snow based on the height we paint it on the terrain. “We wanted a solution that would allow characters and objects to push down the snow in a realistic way,” says Wiese. This allows designers to achieve far more detail on surfaces, depth and resolution to achieve ultimate fidelity.

To achieve this, Chien and the team exploited Unity’s tessellation capabilities, which enables you to create geometry, such as polygons or closed shapes, that tessellates, or breaks down, into smaller and smaller geometries. And Wiese adds: “We could just have used footstep decals to fake snow but we wanted something much more interactive and realistic.” It’s so omnipresent it’s really like another boss,” says Parnell. “As well as creating some amazing epic bosses, we knew that snow would be crucial for us.
