Even more bugs squashed thanks to good ol @Nightonic . With movement given a much-needed overhaul (no more jittery collisions, yay!) We have our actual mine loot ready now, and we're looking to finalise the male player design and add our female option.

Next up

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.

(Mines and menus preview build)

Available for testing now

Finally, I've had some time to do some more work on the recode. There is hardly anything to see except for this utilitarian clock which can be swapped to 12 and 24 hours in settings. The lighting again changes through the day too.

Opinions on a new graphics style?

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!)

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.

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.

Wall height is being adjusted to accommodate things such as stages and lighting while also giving animatronics more breathing space.

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

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.
