Iceland would be finished, if not for all the glitches.


Hey, guys! I wish I could say that I’ve fully finished Iceland, but that wouldn’t be truthful.

I’ve programmed the map, and all of Iceland’s “props” if you will. And it would be otherwise complete, if it weren’t for little “programming gremlins” that are ripping my game apart, piece by piece.

What do I mean by “programming gremlins”, you may ask? Basically, I’m referring to a ton of glitches that are propping up everywhere in my game.

Things like Daniel and random mountains not disappearing on the game over screen, and also the aurora borealis not liking the idea of staying confined to one part of the map.

And the worst thing about programming gremlins, are that they require like 25 different countermeasures to get rid of them, and sometimes that doesn’t even cut it.

My theory is that they pop up when I add too many new features to the game at once. (These gremlins also showed up in the development of the original TQfEL.)

But yeah, once I can get these small little glitches ironed out of the programming, then I can get working on England.

As always, I’ll try to get this game to you all ASAP.

Thanks for reading,
Superben100!

Shoobies leave a sticky trail of mucus in their wake, which can impede movement for any creature that steps in it.

Protege el conocimiento, salva la historia. Guardian of Lore es un platformer 2D en el que debes luchar para mantener viva la memoria de la mitología latinoamericana. El juego llegará a Steam el 18 de mayo: https://steam.pm/app/1211740 #ScreenshotSaturday

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
