Day of Dragons - Acid Spitter Drake Animation (Genesis 1.0) Preview (Work in Progress) 

Love the progress. The map looks amazing, the skins on these guys are indeed awesome. They blend in with that environment so well! Nearly disappearing in the shade of those trees. I would like to give a little constructive criticism on the animations, namely just two things. First, the hips seem far too stiff, especially on the baby animation. The legs just rotate in place like a plastic doll. The hips need to drop and rise with the swing of the leg. The second thing is the tongue. I surely hope in the finished model it isn't going to be just left hanging out constantly. I absolutely love all the effort and hard work that is shown in this video. The progress on this game is leaping forward by the day. Don't listen to any of the nay sayers. Keep up the good work! The amount of progress is truly amazing. Less than a year from fully funded and DOD is moving forward in leaps and bounds. And personally, I like how you are keeping things close to the chest and leaving us with some surprises, yet still showing undeniable progress. I can't wait for genesis!

Looks good so far! Can’t wait to see all the animations!

Something about the animation feels kinda stiff, but not bad so far.

People really dropping dislike to hate xD wow This looks amazing team. Keep up the good work!! Once people see this update, they will be lost for words

Amazing progress so far devs! Lots of complaints about not showing what y’all are working on, then when you do, they complain about it not being finished yet. Just can’t win either way. Keep it up! Thanks for not being discouraged! Rooting for you and looking forward to more progress videos

Good job guys! Can’t wait to play this awesome drake 💖

Wow that was Awesome it looks Amazing i can't wait !!!

ok several suggestions 1: make a dev-test space. your enviorments are nice but having a blank open space to properly show the animations would be nice,in addition you can do a proper line up of the other models that you can walk along showing the differences in age,size,and markings. in this dev-test space you can even include a basic obstacle course to show more animations such as jumping, swimming flying, and special moves, even hunting if you get special motions for these. you can always add more to this test room as more things come along but keep it simple. its ment to show off your model more than anything 2: the walk animation is nice but i think the front legs could have a bit more 'weight' to them. the back hips and legs have a nice bouce but your modle dosent seem to carry weight as smoothly upfront. 3: speaking of back ends the tail feels almost stiff when walking. exspecially when turning. i understand not all tails are flexible but a little 'follow through' motion of the tail would be a nice small addition 4: overall the model looks amazing but the mouth/eyes do me a bit of concern, exspecially in that akaward big head stage. their mouth (especially with the glowing effect) reminds me of a frog and makes it seem bigger than it actually is. it doesnt really help that this dragon dosent seem to fully close their mouth. ever. over all its pretty solid but still needs quite a bit of work. i agree with the other comments in saying that showing a more awe-inspiering demo of your characters would garner more attention

Now what am I supposed to do with all this excitement?

Can’t believe how fast these animations are getting done!!!

I Love the slow Walking Animation.

You all are doing a great job, I love the model's and love how it flows even the little details you guys put in makes it look amazing also how the mouth glows in different lighting then sometimes it doesn't I've never seen that before I thought that was very cool Good Job guys 😊👏

Keep up the great work, DoD team! Everything looks like it's becoming fleshed out nicely!

Looks great so far, especially the walking animation. I also love the glowing teeth it's a cool detail

This is actually looking fantastic so far! Even as a wip, the forward walking looks nice and organic (obviously the turning isn't fully finished), and I adore the way the hatchlings are scaled with that big head baby look

If this ever ends up on console I'm definitely getting it. Even if it never does I'll keep my eye on it. You guys are awesome!

This doesn't look bad at all! The babies are super cute! ♥ Keep it up. c: Also that new change of the ui and all as you pick your dragon, looks really cool and interesting.

Oh god.... the nose movement creeps me out.

It's looking good the enitial forward walking movement is a great place to be at this stage then comes turning animations and jog/trot/run animations im guessing looking good so far can't wait to see the finished product

It's nice progress. Waiting with bated breath for the running. But here's a couple of suggestions with some creative criticism. I think it would be nice if there was a walk, a casual trot, and a sprint. All three. Dog motion could work well with this. Especially with that puppy face. Also having no teeth or smaller teeth under the tongue, like the tongue gap on snakes and the shorter front teeth on a dog, would look a little less awkward. Because it currently looks like it's resting on sharp teeth and could accidentally bite its own tongue off.

I love the baby models! So cute!

Very cute, good to see progress being made! The animation is good however the tail looks very stiff, a bit more flow would make the walking and such seem so much smoother. :3 But love all round, great work guys!

The last skin looks amazing! Is the tounge going to be out of its mouth all the time in the full version (and is the mouth gonna be open ) or is that changing

It radiates divine prowess!!

Love t he moon walking when it when backwards .

Woah, this is amazing! I can't wait for this to be finished! Keep it up!❤👍

Ahhhh the hyyyype! 😍

tell me that's still work in progress, please.

Never been to the current forest biome, can anyone tell whether this is custom or still placeholder? Everything looks GREAT by the way, getting veeeery excited :)))

The growth in this game is a lot better than other games I've seen. Ark just had huge feet for the babies and tiny adults. Isle was (and I think still is) mini adults. At least in this, we see at least a bigger difference in the baby model. Those eyes are huge and the chubbiness is a step up, even if overall the differences are a bit on the smaller side. But I didn't expect huge differences anyway, as I'm sure that's pretty hard to get right and still keep the growth dynamic and looking natural without needing a grow button. I have yet to see any game do dynamic growth with hugely dramatic looks between growth stages. Thumbs up

Cant wait to play! The face is a bit doglike though. It would be cool if the snout was a little bit sharper, like the picture.

Gonna be honest it's look more like a Doggo-dragon

The animations are great so far, and I am interested to see how you will animate a turn radius that sharp, if it is even staying that sharp. Though some friendly critique from your community trouble maker. The animations look perfectly fine during the dragons earlier stages, but as it gets older they seem to get stiffer and stiffer. I know they are a work in progress, so I am interested to see how the animations change as the dragon grows -Your community trouble maker, Eve... Just Eve

Add more elder mushroom spawns to the game or a single player mode

Good progress. Something I'd personally like to see is a more dynamic idle stance, looking like they're on edge, ready to pounce or flee. The standard stand is fine, but... a little extra oomph would make it special. Blow expectations out of the water!

I have a question: Why are we seeing all the work done with this Acid Spitter? Why are you not showing this kind of progress with the 3 original dragons? You know, the ones we contributed to the Kickstarter for? If you tell me that they're being worked on just as much, fine. But show them not this, or at least add this onto them. They should be the priority in every scenario you want to write

With so much on your dev teams shoulders, you guys shouldn’t show anything unless it’s absolutely AWESOME. These are just walking animations, with no turn or idle animations. We see that there work being done, but waiting weeks to see walking animations? Disappointed. Edit; someone brought up a good point, there IS idle animations. I just expected more from an idle animation

They look like puppies :O

1 year and yet you only made one dragon and made tons of money

When will the content you promised on kickstarter come out? I'm still waiting on that 100$ dragon... if it's hard to make the models why push to far and say your making many dragons? Why not the same dragon but different colored variations and code the breath effects different. Like that's a really easy way to make the dragons, do one model really well then copy paste with different colors and abilities

I really wish his tongue wasn't like. constantly sticking out. Otherwise, good work!

The baby’s head is way to small.... where’s its neck???

That's the final animation? It's so stiff like it has something up its butt. I don't like how the tail looks either.

Proportions of the baby are cursed. Looks like an inbreed with scoliosis. Everything else regarding animation is pretty bad for today's game standards even if it's a wip

Been working on this game 3 years and that’s all ya got?

All of the little pieces are coming together to make one amazing masterpiece, keep it up guys!

So it's just walking? When you think animation you think of other stuff too. Pretty bland nonetheless

The game has a lot of potential, but I really think you guys should really fix a lot of bugs the game has, like there are a lot of places we can get stuck at like rocks or other areas, the dragons glitch to the point where you can't move, although there are certain commands you can use in order to reset yourself a player shouldn't really need to do that. The day and night cycles could be better, they are a bit off certain times. Noght time is an anmoyance to me most time, because even though my screen gamma is high I can't see jack shit: maybe a night vision or increased visibility would do better? It would also be nice to have more interactive commands with the dragons on other dragons or on yourself, like grooming, flapping your wings, sitting and laying down (not just to sleep but to just chill and be able to move your head around), more vocalizations, interactions with objects around you, like splashing scratching rocks, trees or the ground as a means to sharpen your claws, maybe even add some blood animation. Idk if other pll have suggested this, but I thought of leaving this feedback here as a means to contribute some suggestions and ideas, because this game can be sooo fun. I LOVE dragons and when I saw this game I was so excited. I like it so far, but kind of bored after a while, because there is really not much to do other than killing enemies for food (which their movement could use some work still). I hope some of my suggestions could be taken into consideration. Good luck and I hope to see the game improve even more.
