🧭 Booty Hunter – Devlog #14 – Weekly Update (3D Learning & Animated Main Menu)
🕑 Added 2025-10-11 18:03:42 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
This week I focused a lot on improving my 3D modeling skills. I started taking a Blender course, and I’m slowly getting more comfortable with the 3D world. My goal is to keep growing in this area so I can create even more original assets for the game without depending on third-party models.
🧱 Learning 3D & Blender Progress
It’s been really fun to dive deeper into modeling, materials, and animation workflows. I still have a lot to learn, but I’ve already been able to apply some of what I learned directly into Booty Hunter.
🎬 New Animated Main Menu
With the new knowledge I’ve been gaining, I started creating a new animated main menu for the game!
It’s not completely finished yet, but you can already get an idea of how it’s going to look.
Here’s the concept:
Each menu option will feature a different crewmate.
If the player hasn’t unlocked that character in the campaign yet, their spot will show only a silhouette instead of the full image.
It’s a small change on paper, but I think it’ll add a lot of charm and personality to the game right from the title screen.
💫 Animation Reworks
As for the ongoing animation reworks, I managed to finish two more this week.
It’s been slow but steady progress — each rework takes time, but they’re coming together nicely and looking much better than before.
🔜 What’s Next
For next week, I’ll keep:
Learning and experimenting with 3D modeling in Blender
Continuing progress on the main menu animation
Finishing the remaining animation reworks for version 0.11
Thanks again for following along and for all the support you keep giving this project.
See you next week,
– Alley ❤️
