So, this week it's going to be a bit different. This week was mostly a lot of just modeling and creating a new level from scratch while keeping it Low Poly with the Robot being a bit High Poly but having the same art style. This includes how I can bring the Color Picker into the new level and making sure that the Color Picker works for the material that is on the Robot. So instead of giving the dates for the progress, I'm going to give you the different sections for this week.
Models for the Week:
So I looked at different tutorials for maying Low Poly models for environments and for the tree, rock and floating island, they were all made in the same time, but in the progress video which you will see, I'll touch these up some more so that it can feel more better to one another.

For above, these are just the tree, rock, and float island assets in Maya. Again, I might make multiple color textures for each, but for now I'm going with the similar texture for each one.

For the Robot, I decided to go with a floaty robot where it has some jump, but not flying in a way. Also, for the robot I decided not to give it wheels since I believe it would be taking a bit too long, especially trying to animate separately for each part; however, if necessary, I might go back and add them later, but I don't think that's going to be a chance.
The video below shows how the color picker works and including moving around. There is a tiy bug that sometimes it makes it so that it changes while jumping of a height object, so I have to figure that out.
Again, that's why I mostly have been doing for this entire week and the rest again are mostly tutorials and using them for the inspiration for everything else.
Tutorial Videos for the Week:
Here are all of the tutorials that I used for this week and I recommended these tutorials, they are pretty helpful:
Finally, here are some tutorials that I looked at, but didn't get a chance to do or used inspiration:

GOALS for WEEK 8:
So I forgot to do this last week, but I'm going to put down for these next three weeks of the stuff that I'm going to be doing for next week:
Trying to finish up the Level
Fixing the Movement and touches
Adding more Environment and areas to go.
Making sure that the Color Picker is in a different menu screen (Maybe a customization screen?)
How to add the skin factor to the game and how it can even work?
Fix Bugs
