Developing the main character look - here is a sketch!


I might change the colors when making her into an ingame model, but all the main equipment pieces are there.

She is a lightweight recon specialist and needs to move a lot, so the clothing is supposed to be non-restrictive. The bottom layer is a body suit inlaid with energy wires that forms a shield around the user to protect them from damage. The outer layer is a light space suit that provides extra cushioning when coming in contact with space debris.

On her back she wears an energy tank and two gun holsters; and the gloves show the energy tank level! (but I will have to test the last one in the game and find out whether it is a viable way to show energy level)

Made it so any mesh can now become a throwable. Here I am throwing a cookie and a trashcan

Progress on the new weapon - wire-whip! Decided on the middle ground between making it a full physics-based effect and a mesh. Like it so far, but there are still some other quirks left to flesh out

Set up animations, effects and attack logic for the new enemy. This one attacks by opening its lid and pouring out the coffee around it. Potentially highly inconvenient in tight corridors.

Made a model for another enemy robot. This one is supposed to resemble a french press, but still look similar to the Toaster. They work in the same company but on different floors.

Added sounds to the wire movements and a short time dilation window when the grabbed robot is close to player.

Some clean up. These are graphs for one of the master materials used in the game, before and after. Added some functionality and finally made use of the named reroute nodes to get rid of all those noodles.

Throwing cake at a robot aka another type of weapon - pieces of environment scattered around level that can be picked up and launched at things.

Made some bread piles for robots to throw their cooked toasts in!

Wire now can grab enemies, to make it easier to shoot them up close!

Watch out! Too late.. It's always fun when enemies can deal friendly fire to each other
