Soul Edge, The Devouring Blade

you should release a version that does tap into your hp, and only stops when you hit someone, that should make playthroughs more challenging and fun (then again, some levels would be an instant lose because they have no enemies )

That is a bit tough. It would probably require heavy scripting or even code changes, to tie this effect to this single weapon. Also, i wish to see new renderer advancements soon, to tie in several other maps to make this wep appear much more beautiful ingame - all i could work with now is the diffuse and spec map. Given the vanilla rendering options, you can see the results on the screenshot - not exactly good looking. I could have done a better job, that is true if anyone thinks that but i was kinda time pressed given the circumstances that i've had free time only yesterday and today for it.

Nevertheless, i'm happy that the "looking eye" trick works, a small illusion where the eye seems to always look at you. AshuraDX did that a while ago on a wall painting and i've realized that we've done the very same think in primary school, arts class with cut egg-carton (you cut away parts for two eggs, cut out the eyes on a painting or drawing, glued them to the back and drew a black spot in the middle). Then if you moved the painting in several directions, this is the "illusion" that happened. I am probably gonna update this mod at some point, but for now, i'm fighting with this in the contest.

Ah man, I miss Soul Calibur/Soul Edge.

This is real wicked. I like how the illusion even works in jka. Pretty spooky.

Ha, pretty cool.

Good luck in the contest!

Oh my!

This is amazing. And I love the game!

This is an awesome sword.

This is awesome!!! Now all we need is a Nightmare model from one of the Soul Calibur games to go with his SoulEdge Weapon!
