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)

๐Ÿฅณ Year recap. Worked on JICE: new meshes, weapons, an NPC robot, dialogues, started level design for level 2. Released a web game and even earned some (small) money from ads. Next yearโ€™s goal: 2 web games and.. a bit more money? ๐Ÿ˜†

Happy new years!

Changed lighting in this part - added LED lamps where the light is supposed to be coming from and fiddled with global illumination a bit more.

Spent some time on making an adaptive UI for my html5 game in gamemaker. Buttons and pictures now resize and shift if the browser size changes.

Will add a bit more lighting, but for now finished with this section of the Depot level.

Did some more level design this week. Found out that the tutorial tvs broke at some point, while I was improving the interactions system. But if I don't tell anyone that these screens are supposed to show text, nobody is gonna know.. Oh.

Something of an atrium in the middle of an office area.

Just jumping around Spaceport, collecting energy

Sometimes it does feel like this ๐Ÿ˜†

Made a simple comparison table of the most popular asset stores! I was mainly aiming for 2D pixel art, but it is applicable for other asset types as well. Overall, itch io is probably ahead for me, but it is worth the time to set up other storefronts too.

The small web game I've been making recently is now on itch! Can kill a few minutes of your time if you like swinging swords at stuff.
