Moved to version 5.6 of UE, had to adapt to some changes like the enhanced input system getting rid of some things. Still, there were also some changes to global illumination, which fixed a few details for me.

Ditched baked lighting, trying lumen now. Surprisingly, it doesn't seem like it takes up that much more performance compared to the previous setup - with a few tricks for optimization, at least.

Just jumping around Spaceport, collecting energy

Changed lighting in this part - added LED lamps where the light is supposed to be coming from and fiddled with global illumination a bit more.

A bit more design of the second part of the Depot level, now with lighting. Needs additional jellies..

Spent some time to fix metal containers' UVs. Here are before and afters. Gives the scenes a bit more cleaner look!

Did some more level design this week. Found out that the tutorial tvs broke at some point, while I was improving the interactions system. But if I don't tell anyone that these screens are supposed to show text, nobody is gonna know.. Oh.

Setting up the storage environment, with a cake as a centerpiece for one of the rooms.

Not much to show, because I've been fighting with baked lighting again.. Thinking of turning to the dark side (using global illumination)

A little side project - a game I've started during a game jam and decided to work on it a bit more. It is kind of a survivors-like, but every upgrade you pick up is a choice between two. And whatever you don't choose upgrades your enemies instead

Will add a bit more lighting, but for now finished with this section of the Depot level.
