Hive Quest game dev log


Hi everyone

Hive Quest involves competing with other hives deep within the woods. There are several ways this works

The night time pic is a shot of a gene beacon. Players can create them from pebbles & other stuff lying around with the aid of a Beacon Spell (the pink sphere). Every time an enemy drone passes near your beacon you increase your influence over that drone's hive

The other pic is a 'zealot' - you can use him as a spy to infiltrate an enemy hive and change its allegiance.

The competition between hives is something I wanted to start working on for a while. I set up the basic framework for this around a year ago and, now the demo is out, I will be pushing these game mechanics forward.

More game dev news coming shortly - thanks for looking!
