I wish I could add more visible content for this update, but it didn't really seem possible.
Changelog:
Code optimization
Map system overhaul
UI Sliders fixed & improved
New "FPS Cap" and "Interpolation" options in settings
The pause menu is now identical to the main menu, similar to Black Mesa Source & Half-Life 2
HUD texts now light up after they get updated
Items can now be picked up like props
AABB collision added to props
I'll be gone for a while, don't expect frequent updates
Working on charging stations, map system overhaul, and various optimizations & improvements.
Alpha 1.5 is out! It's the biggest update by far, introducing the first two maps of the story, alongside a brand new lighting system.
DESOLATION Alpha 1.3 Release - Changelog
DESOLATION Alpha 1.4 is out! You can read the full changelog below - or just download the game to see it there.
Lighting really does make all the difference (a daily screenshot from the map I'm working on)
Decided it'd be nice to have some sort of "wake up protocol" text appear in the beginning, so I quickly set up this in the evening. Thoughts? The text might be weird a little lol
Polarity Engine, the project I've used to develop DESOLATION, is now available at a seperate repository as well as Itch.io and Game Jolt. You can view it through the links in the article.
Made a small change in the UI - I think it looks pretty good. Thoughts?
