š·šLevel 2-2 is DONE!
Chapter 2 is now 50% DONE! I suspect the last 2 levels will take a little longer to work on than Level 2 did, but Chapter 2 should hopefully be out at some point in late October š
Here are some teasers for how the level currently looks!
ā¹ļø Updates regarding our use of the Unity Engine
Soo, our social media posts talking about the Unity āRuntime feeā made some noise, which is good. People do need to know that this is a crappy situation.
We do want to let yāall know about how the development of JKR will continue from now on. Unlike some indie studios, we do not plan on switching engines for this game.
Weāve worked for over a year on the project now, and while we are disappointed by Unityās actions and transitioning isnāt impossible, the process and hard work of rebuilding everything in a new engine is simply not worth it for us.
We simply donāt have the time, knowledge, patience, and willpower to do so.
However, that does lead us to an exciting little announcementā¦
š¹ļøš„³Weāre making ANOTHER GAME!
The name and logo are temporary, but Iāve been planning this for about a month now and started working on it whenever I found the time a few weeks ago! And, we transitioned to developing the game using Godot instead of Unity as we had planned, since I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to finally explore new engines š
This is the game I'm making as my high school diploma project, and my friends and I think this is a pretty neat idea to explore, whether it goes well or not.
Soā¦ Hereās the brief.
Imagine an action/stealth game where you play as a T-1000 Terminator.Ā
You're (fully or partially) made of liquid metal, which can be used to create weapons, camouflage yourself, interact with the environment, and multitask.
Butā¦ That same metal is also your health. And itās limited.
Itās your choice how you want to play the game. You can either go balls to the walls and make the most noise possible with your abilities. Or, you can try to sneak around quietly ALSO using your abilities. However you decide to play, it is vital to manage your metal wisely as it is essential to your life.
Obviously, the story and gameplay will be adjusted so that it plays better and so that we arenāt just, yāknow, STEALING from Sony and getting ceased and desisted XD
But, the general idea is an action/stealth game with a fun yet challenging resource management twist.
Weāve made a GameJolt page you can follow and weāll keep you updated on the gameās project as often as we feasibly can! Weāll also be trying to post weekly updates on the gameās progress every Friday on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, so make sure to follow us there as well š
If you like the game or have any useful feedback, please feel free to give the game a positive review or rating, or just share the game around! Itās a small gesture, but it makes a huge difference and makes us very happy, no matter if itās positive or constructive criticism.š
We also welcome anyone to upload or stream their gameplay of Just Keep Running, and feel free to share that gameplay with us if you so wish! FYI, Twitch streamers, we have āJust Keep Runningā as a game categoryā¦ š
Chapter 2 is ALMOST HERE! But if you still canāt wait, you can always check out Version 1.4.4 of the game here on GameJolt!
