Let's see what the devs have been working on this week!

Bryan - As we continue adding menus and features to finish the game’s co-op mode, we have also been looking for more things for players to do in Morvin’s room (the “hub zone” of the game). We decided to handle co-op mode selection by interacting with player two’s character, Morv-0 as it “recharges'' by Morvin’s bed. Being made from a repurposed grill, Morv-0 is charcoal powered so I made a little contraption to automatically feed it nutritious briquettes. The robot is Morvin’s prize winning science fair project and is sure to come in handy if you want to run the Quickstop with a friend!

Lauren - This week I've focused on Tiktok and Instagram with a sprinkle of memes in between and a whole lot of coffee! I've made a TikTok schedule for the coming week and been finding the secrets to Instagram through algorithm research. The key here is to give you the best posts at the best times in the day, so when you open your smartphone/ laptop / electronic potatoes, you get to see updates on our game.

Ian - Last week Bryan was busy creating new effects for our final boss fight. This week I am starting to set them up! Sometimes it is hard to know if what you are creating is enough or too little for your end goal, so you just have to try stuff. This is the first pass of a bunch of these effects in motion. In fact, it’s not even done yet! One of the hardest parts is getting the feel and timing of everything correct. You can no longer just snap things on or off. You have to give time for the effects to actually complete while making sure the logic behind the scenes can handle any scenario of interruption.

And that wraps it up. Feel free to check out our discord and our twitter for more updates!
