Dialogue windows and other news (Expand)

Poll: Area of focus


Poll info: We are working to get the small farming demo working now. Thing is. Most of the farming functionality is there. so we are now looking to you to find out what you want to go with it . vote down below.

Would you believe it was a few months back we first saw the dialogue system? A small text window and promises of further game play. Or the day a day in the life hit a giant snag. Well okay I did. while it was simple enough to show text. It was incredibly difficult to display text. Have branching pathways and not have the text all try and display at once. Well now that is no longer a problem for us, and with it we can finally move on from the rut we've been in.

Its not all been bad however. We have farming tools almost ready. Only thing keeping tools down is lack of animations. which are being made as and when they are needed. We are also hoping to up the anti on crop tiles by implementing wonder crops at long last. as well as weeds and stones which will lead us gently into mining and tool upgrades :)

(Mines and menus preview build)

Available for testing now

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

Tall walls are all modeled and intergrated into the engine and work seamlessly with the previous two wall styles. actual wall skins for this set are incoming. A new test build featuring these changes will follow up soon.

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!)

Finally, you can sell the fruits/veg of your labour. :)

Character customization: How and why bother? (expand)

Opinions on a new graphics style?

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.

Asking the big questions today. We won't support changing your characters outfit or gender but you can give our beloved testguy a name. Character customization will come later, as it will take planning to get it as versatile as we want at the moment.

VERY early test of very basic systems in my new project. Do your work, keep the lights on, and everything will be fine. I really want to gush about some of the things not seen here, but will save that until they can be shown off. FnafKit who?
