So why not make sure that the “you” you’ve assumed control of for your parody-filled, homage-laden old school retro adventure is your ideal character? You are a hero, a savior, the chosen one. Hey, in the end, you’re hurried into a castle, handed a sword, and asked to save the kingdom. We think not! And the best part is: You can share your custom creations with the rest of the 3DDGH community online! Just save your character, move it to a USB storage drive, and then upload the file to our character hub site (scheduled to launch at or around the time of the game’s launch) so that others can enjoy your handiwork.
Someone get me a newspap… Oh wait, that’s us? Or some sort of futuristic mechanical… well, whatever the heck it is: Just imagine that classic music in your head, because we can’t afford the rights to it. Or a shark (it comes up when it’s attacking)? Yeah, Master Poochi will be ready to save the kingdom… Right after he takes care of that fire hydrant back near the castle. Is there anything more satisfying than saving an entire kingdom as a dog? If you can dream it (and yes, if it fits within the size limit-above), you can create it.

Second, and more importantly, the editor is very easy to use! Copy and paste functions make things super quick, whether you’re copying and pasting one pose (Walk 1) into another animation (Walk 2, for example-above) or designing half of a character and then copying, pasting, and flipping said side to create a complete and awesome custom character.įour more legs and this thing would creep the heck out of me…Īnd because the editor is in full 3D, offers a clean, intuitive interface, and doesn’t mess around with things like textures (trust us, when you see your creations lit by the game’s amazing real-time lighting engine, you won’t really care about textures), even the most nervous, inexperienced designer will soon realize they can save the Kingdom of Dotnia with anything they can imagine. First, the North American release of the game comes with far more custom characters on the disc than the original Japanese release, allowing for even the most character editor averse gamer to experience the thrill of saving the kingdom as a ninja, shark, or heck, even jolly old Saint Nick. Before the self-proclaimed “artistically-challenged” gamers run for the hills, snapping paintbrushes between their thumbs and index fingers, I’ll point out a couple of things. I’ll call him… Monkey Kong?Ĭreating a custom character in 3DDGH (my fingers thank me for the abbreviation, so please note it) is more than just figuring out what it will be and look like you have to animate it, too. One of the custom characters that comes included on the disc. The game may be all homage, but it’s certainly not out to limit anyone’s homagination!Įrr… Let’s dive into the all-powerful, easy-to-use editor, shall we? 3D Dot Game Heroes, while it takes its inspiration and purpose from 8 and 16-bit classics that came out years ago, gives the gamer nearly limitless control over the look (and movement) of their protagonist. Often, you don’t have any say in who they are or what they look like, and in some cases the customization options you’re given are limited.
Most games ask you to assume the role of a hero.
