You’ve probably come across wildflowers growing in the grass here and there in the game. They’ve been around for a while, and we haven’t done much with them, and… well, it shows. They’re small and low-resolution and their colours stand out a bit garishly against the more subdued palettes the rest of the world uses.
They’re still very simple and they still don’t do anything besides looking pretty, but as far as I’m concerned that’s more than enough! Their leaves will be tinted to match the grass of the world you find them in, and their flowers will be… well, pretty much any colour. They’ll add a bit of colour to grassy meadows and some ambience to your gardens. And they’re coming… soon™
These all look fantastic! A great improvement to what’s there now. I quite like the 3rd one, reminds me if the wild bluebells growing in my garden (although somewhat different colours to yours!).
Do you know if flowers will play any part in crafting or will they continue to be used purely for cosmetic reasons?
These are in fact 3D models - but it’s understandable why that might not be obvious because they are very, very simple models. They’re pretty much just a handful of mostly-flat polygons with the all-important textures painted on them, arranged so they’ll look right from different angles while still being quite cheap to render.
liked both 2 and 3 flower.
thoose could be like a rare flower while the first one seems like a good all over thing.
The third flower looks like something we could have on a Sakura biome or blueish biome
That’s because they are kinda 2d^^ AFAIK they are just a texture pasted onto a flat 3d surface ^^ I don’t know any game that doesn’t use that technique for grass etc.
(@jesshyland correct me if I’m wrong please)
I love 1 as well :). I think i’d like 4 also if the color of the stems were the same as #3’s stems (or atleast a dark ultramarine color) since the glowing flowers seem to belong in a bio luminescent swamp.
