Bootstrap Island - Gac Fruit

Gac Fruit is an edible, interactive prop created for Bootstrap Island. The player can tear the fruit apart and consume the seeds inside, making it a great addition for immersive survival or exploration gameplay.

This was my first hero asset for the project, with a strong focus on balancing visual fidelity and performance. The main challenge was creating realistic-looking spikes while maintaining a low polycount suitable for real-time applications.

The asset includes:

Full intact fruit model
Two split halves
Individual seeds
Decals for a squashed/destroyed version
