Hi!

I wanted to share some work on my game project.
It's an anime style singleplayer horse riding game, we're expecting to have a demo done by December 2024 or at most January 2025 if we end up needing more time. New horse riding games have been very successful in the last few years despite their curse of usually being made by problematic people. But there are no truly stylized games that aren't trying to be realistic in any way, so here's where my project comes into play!
We're rolling with an anime artstyle, so we started testing things out with an anime environment from the marketplace. The moon was originally very realistic, so I made a very stylized texture in clip studio paint, though when I'm done with the UI, I will remake the unicorn head part of the texture. I'm very happy with the night sky texture I've done though!

And my twitter update about the character model! This is the main character of the game who you're going to play as.
I'll try to post updates here as well, but I can't promise I won't forget haha... I'm also attaching screenshots of the horse model that we've got in progress, I'll be trying my best at animating it when it's done.

Development is finally kicking off once again with Celestial Grove: Shadow Over Silverdale and I couldn't be happier!

The demo is expected to release either December 2024 or July 2025. I'll try to share more updates when there is more meaningful progress; currently having issues with Unreal Engine

Updated moon texture! I think that's final, or if I do make changes, they'll probably be relatively small
