D0.40 Update 2 released!


It’s been a while since the last update. Summer ended up just a hectic as spring. Regardless, I worked on a new update. This is primarily a lot of fit and finish work, fixing some issues and improving some aspects. I’ve also done some optimizations to northbridge so it works faster and remove the WebView2 component (since it’s no longer necessary). The links on the “Information” menu will simply open the sites on your browser. Thus, all of the mirrors will have one package that is smaller. Also, this update brings the overhauled Crystal Caves as well.  

Here’s the changelog: 

Game 

  • FPS Sync turned on by default. 

  • Overhauled Crystal Caves. 

  • Consolidated and re-designed the map. 

  • Re-worked the battles to accommodate this. 

  • Tweaked the ration of smaller squads to large ones. 

  • Updated renderer. 

  • Added hints for the game mechanics. 

  • Tweaked and/or fixed some of the text. 

  • Tweaked the accuracy of the squadron. 

  • Tweaked the accuracy of Ramming Punch. 

  • Tweaks to the crash report system. 

  • Minor balance to the Assassin. 

  • Reduced the number of items to cache. 

  • Fixed a bug where the text for "Guardian Angel" isn't showing. 

Northbridge 

  • It will now show if the launcher is checking the game's files at startup. Reduces the time from the splash screen to the launcher UI. 

  • File checking is skipped when the game is launched from the launcher (instead of the shortcut in the Jump List). 

  • Performance and memory usage improvements. 

  • Removed the WebView component as it is no longer necessary. 

  • The shortcuts under the "Information" menu will simply open the pages on the default browser.

It's pretty early, but here's a look at a mob manager, handling the enemies in the game. The code streamlines the programming of the enemies. Hopefully, I can expand it to more useful ways.

Added the option to rebuild the cache. This will clear the cache and then decompress the files from the packages.

A bit of an old but goodie coming back: Quick Load! In an upcoming update, you can jump back to where you left off with a push of a button.

A small teaser for the next tech test.

Peeking behind a tree!

Waz zis? An overhauled map? Yes. Coming soon.

While I'm preparing August's Monthly Sync, I'm preparing a Trello board for the game. You can see what I'm working on here. https://trello.com/b/CjFyzH50/immortal-sins-game-development Pardon my dust, while I'm getting this up and running.

Yearly GJ post. More updates in X and Itch.

This is a screen overlay that appears when spit in the face / blinded.

Added a simple audio system to the launcher.
