DESOLATION

Added pushable NPCs, bullets piercing through objects and fun little commands to my shooter game


It's been a while since I've done anything in this project of mine, but ever since last week, I've been trying to readapt to the code and improve some parts of it. I can't do much due to how busy I am with school, but I want to at least get used to this project again before I start working on the actual story of the game in summer.

I actually was "burnt out" when I stopped working on the project last summer, and actually attempted to port the project to Godot the last week or two. But now, looking back at it, it's probably a better idea to continue with the current foundation I have. A big issue I'm facing is memory leak, but hopefully that'll also get fixed as I continue to improve the current code.

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?

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

I added full controller support to my shooter game

Shop Crush is a hybrid visual novel, where you connect with customers, learn their characters, and untangle the dark, Literal Illusion puzzles about them.

The game's playtest has begun. We're celebrating with a quest!

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.

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

Lighting really does make all the difference (a daily screenshot from the map I'm working on)
