I see you are using DarkMatter2 models, so am I in my forthcoming Death-bed game, I wonder if anyone will notice the same characters appearing in different games?! It could be funny like cameo appearances on TV
I was thinking of re-texturing and animating the models though so it won't be too blatant.
It looks like you've got some great direction and atmosphere here, nice work! I love horror/suspense/adventure games, and it looks as if you're on the way to making a very good one, the settings are nicely varied.
Suggestions:
1. Add a texture to the rain particles, just a smoothed line, they'll look more realistic.
2. Add a fake shadow to the bottom of the buildings and the floor when they touch it, just a simple faded black area to the existing texture would do. This will make the edges less noticable and it'll look more realistic.
3. For objects without a proper shadow, put a ghosted plain beneath them with a dark circle for a fke shadow. This will look great, especially under the street lights and barrel.
4. If you notice framerates dipping or want to improve them, a lot of those particle effects could be replaced by 2poly plains textured with particle animations from Ex-Gen, rotated to face the camera. This would give and almost identical, and sometime nicer, effect.
This is looking to have a lot of potential. If you could complete this, it'd be great! Keep working at it you're doing well
