Spatial for the win
We're thrilled to share the latest updates from our development team, who have been tirelessly working on our spatial Player vs Player (PVP) style teaser game. It's a unique project that blends elements of strategy and action in a 3D environment. As we continue to polish and refine the game mechanics, we're confident that players will find it engaging, challenging, and fun.
currently 2 environments are under development for gameplay with one more to follow. This will enable players to engage in gated gameplay as a Hangry Animals and earn tokens and further nft items for the bigger RPG game also in development. We decided to explore Spatial as a side quest of our own to get the add integrated and the team familiar with what capabilities this emerging platform affords us. We will be able to se daily quests, eliminate swarms of Shillarkis aliens what rush at you and swarm you from the sky. Can’t wait to show some funny and hilarity of gameplay.
Licence to thrill (animated)
In addition to this, we are elated to announce a new partnership which would be taking our beloved 'Hangry Animals' project to new heights. We have teamed up with a licensing team and we're attending the ReelScreen broadcast conference in New Orleans in early February. This is an incredible opportunity to showcase Hangry Animals to a wider audience and take a significant step in the journey of its expansion into the world of animated storytelling on our small streaming screens.
Let’s get boarding
As if that wasn't enough excitement for one month, February will also see us kick-starting the storyboard process for an animated trailer for the Hangry Animals series project. Our talented creative team is brimming with ideas and can't wait to bring the world of Hangry Animals to life in a dynamic, endearing, and undoubtedly hilarious animated format. We’re still toying with style here, but are committed to modern forms of production that utilises Motion Capture blended with real time rendering processes in Unreal Engine and iClone/Character Creator tools from Realillusion.
It's buzzing at Hangry HQ! We are delighted with the progress we've made and even more excited for what’s next. We look forward to keeping you updated on all these developments and more. We hope you love the updates underway as much as we do! Here’s a snippet of the ominous swarming species we call the Shillarkis. This concept by our main creative Hangry Andy demonstrates the vibrant and creepy nature of aliens our Hangry crew will encounter in the game, comics and animated series’.
Ideas Vault brought to life
As well as game updates, Hangry Andy has been diligently working on a mini comic for one of our community members ideas. @bblaser in our community Discord suggested a few key concepts close to his kids hearts (Butcake and Dave). Andy has illustrated a mini 8 page story about Fynn the skateboarding shark featuring Butcake and Dave as Judges. Join the Discord to see the early concepts for what what’s been created so far!
