Day/night lighting


So here we have the first of the newly implemented features. actual day and night which was pretty easy to implement in the end. A switch of the sprite material to recieve light then I could tie the lighting in with the changes of the clock.

Right now Ive got one method that triggers when the clock updates at a specific time which runs a switch statment and uses the current hour and an array containing colour and brightness values to alter the light. The light defaults to a single value for all indoor scenes and the method is called again when exiting.

Character customization: How and why bother? (expand)

I know updates have been slow but there really isn't much to talk about when you're just tidying up existing code. We're looking at updating the art style to be just that bit nicer. The crop system working with an overhaul to interactions with tools.

Lightweight object recoloring test. This test is looking at coloring defined areas with as little excess data as possible and uses NO mask maps, alternate materials and does not break object batching (won't melt the PC when you have hundreds of swatches!)

Is he a... you know....

working on a new mechanic for the prototype. no need to wander over to those far away items when you can just send in your drone.

Quick update on the project, Dialogue system has been rewritten from the old version of the game, functionally the same but a lot easier to use. The camera has been worked on and the inventory is being expanded with things like drag and drop.

Character bits! We're currently throwing together the character animation pieces for the new customization system :P

Hi everyone, I wanted to put my project back out there after taking some time off. Fnafkit is a game about creating custom fnaf games with no need for programming. I'm also looking for anyone interested in helping out! https://gamejolt.com/games/TKFNAF/444860

Grey boxing the first layout for the game, But got very distracted making this arcade tunnel. But its starting to take shape at least.

Some map progress since yesterday. some arcade cabinet props that just need some textures, tunnels had some more work put into it and the restaurant is slowly being built up.
