One new image 4 new mockups. Here it is. Nothing too fancy. Just the buttons for each submenu, basically when you click/top on the screen, the first one pops up (the one on the upper right) then if you click the buttons, for each of the 4, a sub menu pops up. Spellbook may have a standard menu, this is where, the main characters spells will be, the inventory, and system settings including save games will be located. Haven’t decided on what I will do for that just yet.)
I just wanted to post a little bit of something. An update to my next mockup. Just want to get into the habit of updating every day or nearly every day. So I’m not entirely done, but I’m almost done with a template. There will be 4 buttons now. Look, Sense, Use, Spellbook. Spellbook will have it’s own separate menu that’s why it doesn’t have it’s own sub-menu.
Next up — Actually adding the sub menu nodes to the main buttons in the template, then building another mockup based on that.
Update 6/26 : Finished the outer menu options, so the template is slightly different. Next I’m going to make a full mockup with either icons or words, or both so I can see how they look.
Update 6/27 : So here’s a little more progress on the mockup. Across the buttons will be labels that will extend as far as they need, and be readable. This is just the main options, the submenus I will update later.
Here’s the original full template, including main buttons, and the “geometry” of the circles. (Essentially concentric squares which I used to create the circles).
Update 7/01 : — Here are all the submenu buttons — will be posting regular mockups soon.
Looking through some old files and found this pie menu design
This was to be for the upcoming sequel (or big game) — and still may be.
If you notice the words under the “action” menu are different than what I wrote in the actual slots. Was considering different types of things. Maybe this is the way to go?
