Goblin Showcase And Vote
This week I've been working on the 3 goblin models and can now present you the results.
In the course of this, I would like to introduce you to the characters and ask you to vote on which of the 3 characters should receive content in the upcoming update that goes beyond an introduction of the characteristics and dialogs of the frame story. But as you will see by their description I will go a step further with this vote and will also shape the story of the goblin tribe to a degree around the outcome of this vote!
1. Ugotha - As queen of the goblin tribe, it was she who was responsible for their situation in the service of the dark elves. There is a rumor among the goblins that she originated from the union of a dark elf with a goblin. It was also she who upset the hierarchy within the tribe by having the former chieftain Snik brought down by a jealous rival. Will she now also draw the MC into her net to take advantage of his appearance?
2. Snikka - Eldest daughter of Ugotha and the former chieftain Snik. After her father was killed, she lost any right of succession to the throne. She was kept small by her mother and at the same time condemned to the role of huntress. Although she is dependent on her mother, who shields her from the greedy eyes of the male goblins, she has never forgiven her for the shame of her existence. Will she accept her fate or overthrow her mother with the help of the MC?
3. Nibblina - Youngest daughter of Ugotha and Snikka's halfsister. Like her father, she is completely subservient to her mother and follows her every instruction, at least on the surface. At the same time, she is aware of her position as heiress and uses this to order other goblins and even her sister around in her favor. While her mother believes she has her under control, she weaves her own web and is already planning her own rise to become queen of the tribe. Will this finally happen with the arrival of the MC?
So much for the presentation, I'm looking forward to the outcome of this vote, which will end next Thursday midnight (ETC)! (Votes on Patreon and Subscribestar will be counted together)
In addition to working on the female models, I also reworked the male goblin skin to match the female version, and I also started collecting and creating assets for the goblin village and the lower levels of the mine. Today I've started working on the maps but that will probably take up into the coming week.
Other goals for the coming week is the work on Bianca's combat sprites and some skills fitting for her character. Her motivation for joining the MC on this quest is, of course, the search for surviving dwarves in the mine.
So other than completing the maps and sprites my goal for the coming week is to also fill the new maps with events and interaction. Since we're in a mine that will also mean new ore which will lead to new equipment. I plan to make the goblins the by now strongest enemies in the game so new gear to fight them properly will be necessary.
That's all for now, I wish you all a nice weekend!
