DEAD DRIFT UPDATE!

I'm still working on the missions, and it's been harder than I anticipated. However, I was able to make missions work (even if the UI is a little janky)!

As of now, missions already collect information from the runs, such as zombies killed, time survived, level reached, and it's easy to implement new parameters.

Also, missions can already award two types of reward:

  • New Powers: most powers are initially locked, and need to be unlocked by completing missions;

  • Stat Increases: some game stats, such as initial lives, bullet damage, car speed, etc, etc, can be increase by static mission rewards.

These two reward types cover almost all types, the only one left is the "New Vehicle" award, which is going to be harder because the game's not yet ready for more than one vehicle. This is the next thing I'll be working on, though!

That's it for now, folks!

See ya soon!

Here's what I'm thinking to celebrate the 1K followers milestone... the very first SOCK TOWN prototype!

It's heavily inspired by the Reigns game, but instead of being about being a king... it's about being the director of the "Sock Town" TV show!

And, yes, we're both scraggly dudes.

For this #DrawABirdDay I decided to make a simple animation as if Greedy Grackle was one of the Socks from Sock Town!

Here's Greedy Grackle Sock!

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."

Sharing the pixel art I did for a personal project I never got to make. The player would control an enchanted chest that had to investigate the disappearance of its wizard master!

What do you think? Would this had looked cool?

It's OK if I repost my Jack Black Bowser drawing for the #MarioMovie quest? Some people might have missed it!

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

Mission Complete! Yesterday I was thinking hard about Dead Drift and I had a game design breakthrough!
