The Maze Where The Minotaur Lives
4 years ago

Been experimenting with post-processing effects in SRP, adding an outline and a painterly depth of field effect. There's also a new HUD to keep track of items picked up and how many lives you have left!


All the new effects use a Depth Normal buffer which I had to code into SRP in an attempt to learn more about how it works in Unity.

I also messed around with the pixelate effect in combination with the new effects. It's... interesting.

I didn't get a chance to write up about this week's experimentation. Depth buffers are surprisingly arbitrary, so it took a lot longer to figure out, leaving me with not much time this week to write.

But if you're interested, you can visit my blog where you can see all previous posts about The Maze Where The Minotaur Lives' development.

Next up

I finally came up with a title for the maze SRP project. It's called "The Maze Where The Minotaur Lives".

I'm been participating in the LowRezJam2021, and I've made some good progress. The themes I'm working with are Instant Teleportation and It's a Trap! #lowrezjam

Added a Minotaur Statue that has a secret compartment hiding the key. You'll need to find the shiny red gems to open it if you ever want to escape the maze. All done with a little whack from your new arms.

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

Unity's Scriptable Rendering Pipeline no longer supports in-built Lens Flares, so I wrote my own.

Happy Video Game Day!

July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

I'm adding a new item to let you cheat! THE PEGASUS BOOTS. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Wishlist the game: https://bit.ly/CritterCove

Added fading camera transitions to see the sights and sounds of the maze. See what the Minotaur can see!
