I spent a couple days experimenting with the main loop, none of it really stuck, but I finally found a direction I want to take this game. Anyways the water level is starting to look like an actual level.

Spent a few hours today remaking some Sims build mode functionality. Not really making a game with it atm, just a curiosity. Walls are unbelievably jank, but not bad for a couple hours. I'm mostly messing with the system in case I make something like it.

No longer forcing 4:3. Also added this jump particle. Also didn't mention this in the last post, but the outline is procedural, so it works on custom characters too.

Have you ever been playing a game and wished you were playing as a different character? Either as a joke or because you love a specific character. One might turn to mods or fan projects, but what if you could just change the character in game like paint?

finally got the spherical gravity zones mostly working. They don't seem to work that well with non-putters, even putters arc very high. I've checked all my calculations nothing is wrong. At least there's no drifting anymore.

Working on the wall jank, they actually connect now, editor colors work correctly, camera has different angles and views. I'm calling it good enough for now. Reminds me of building random houses that make no logical sense in the sims as a kid.

Steam Deck! Running on the LCD model but should run on the OLED just fine.

This is so fun 🛝

That's absolutely wild. 3 solo games and one collab later, here I am. Glad to make GameJolt my home!

Working on music and some background flair for my level in my game. In this level you explore underwater domes and glass pipes on the sea floor, with a neon bioluminescent aesthetic.
