Must be good donuts, or I wouldn't want to bring food in a car that nice

Haha thanks, tried them myself they are totally worth it 😁

Better looking than Lard Lad doughnuts, Homer Simpson would love this shop

Zomboid mod?

Hahaha yes he would 😂

No but I get what you mean 😅

This looks like a game I'd play. What is it?

Fun you asked!!

For now it’s nothing yet but I’m going to try and make my own open world race/driftgame. I know it sounds a bit much to just make on my own but I would like to keep it small for the beginning because I’m new to game design and development.

What I had in mind for now (map wise) is this donut shop that leads up to a mountain. I also want to add a small city, bit of desert and a beach.

I’m going to try and make it all by myself using inspiration from suggestions (and lots of tutorials 😅) I know my way around blender so I could also make all the assets and textures myself (as I did in this animation)

In the future I hope to get the game published but that’s so far away that I can’t even begin to dream about that

Thanks for the interest!!

Your donut shop appears to be located in a really expensive suburb.

🫣

How important is this donut shop to the game?

Have you considered an unlock for doing donuts in the parking lot of the donut shop?

Have you considered a spinoff donut shop management sim game?

Just asking the important questions

*ETA: also the art looks great, good luck!

There is no way that car could pull off that turn in real life.

Thanks!!

I did think of a special unlockable for doing a donut in the parking lot but I still need to make the rest of the game playable and good looking

But I think the unlockable will be something in the range of a livery or top hat or something

If all goes well I could even consider hiding a mini game inside of the game that has something to do with the shop, but I’m far from there to put that level of detail into it 😅

Yes completely agree, but I was struggling to animate that specific turn in the first place (I’m also kinda new to 3d animations like these) so it’s not perfect

4 wheel steering 😆

Plausible

Healthy dose of go pedal and burnt rubber, maybe lol

Lets say that’s the case 😆😆

i like the vibe

Thanks!!

Looks one it'd make an interesting loading screen if there was a loop of some sort

Originally it loops and you see the pagani (bleucar that drives off) reverse park before it loops but I had to cut it off otherwise the file was to big for this sub reddit

But thanks tho!!

That’s no donut, that’s a torus!

I mean your not wrong 😂

Awesome job. What software stack do you use? Cinema4d/octane for me.

Not enough cars that go AAAOOOOOOOGAA when you press the horn.

Thanks!! All of the assets are made in blender. Im going to make in Unreal 5 but im new to the program so its a lot of just figuring out the nevagation

the concept animations are also made in blender for now

Good stuff. Unreal5 is fun for sure. Definitely jump in.

😂 soon 👀👀

No all jokes a side I exactly finished one today making a concept animation as we speak

Will do! Hopefully it isn’t to hard if I just follow a couple of tutorials

Tonnnns of resources so..not going to be lost :)

I'd guess you played at least some Art of Rally and Absolute Drift?

Yeah exactly :)

I exactly wanted to get art of rally but I never did for some reason, but the low poly style is a style a really dig not only because how it looks but it’s super fun to me to make 😅

Absolut drift was a blast but not a direct inspiration for this but is see what you meant

You should look into also making a 7/11 or 11/7 if you are worried about copyright. There is an Instagram trend called cars of 7ELEVEn, it would be cool to add that part of the culture in there somehow.

Yeah I had that exact same idea

I think it would be a great add for in a game like this :) but I will try to get in touch with 711 for copyright and that sort of stuff

Clearly never seen a car do donuts

Yeah I kind of thought this would be a sim builder type game from the look of it.

Like what if you had to manage multiple businesses but you can only manage one at a time and you have to drive to each one to be able to interact with it. You could motivate the player to drive faster cause some choices are time sensitive.

What ever you do I'm actually pretty excited to see.

I see. For now I’m just going to keep it to driving mainly because I’m new to game development but I’m gonna remember this for maybe in the future when I have more experience.

Bc I get what your idea is and I think that would be really cool as well

Also the style isn’t going to change but the camera placement probably is but I’m not sure yet :)

This looks like an old Facebook game called cartown.

Pagani Huayra, corvette c7 zr1, two RX-7’s, and a challenger.

Am I close?

Why is the animation name 'donut shop?'

^^^^/s

I’m assuming the donut shop is a front for a high end cocaine operation?

To be honest its just because im bad at naming things 😅😅 and I couldn’t think of anything better

Probaly because of how crap I have made the Pagani turn 😅

Almost correct,

it’s a custom widebody zonda r

It’s a c7 only not zr1 but also custom (but I get how you see a zr1 in it from this angle)

It’s not a dodge but it’s a hillclimb build based on a mark 1 golf

Rx7 was right (also with custom bodykit)

🤫🤫

I like the stuff coming out of the vents up top.

Your donut shop looks so awesome.

Thanks much appreciated!!

Thanks!!

just some simple smoke details.

Stuff like that is the most fun to make

I like the Zonda 👍

Thanks!!
