P:Y [DEVLOG 2]

Talking about the progress made!

Been over a year since last devlog!


Hey everyone! Been already a year since last devlog, I actually did not even see how quickly time passed since!

But i'm happy to say that the game is still on developement!

So, today, i'll be showing the progress i made in 3 categories!

		
			1 - Night 1
2 - Side story
3 - Other informations
4 - Thank you
		
	

So let's get into it!


Night 1

I've been done with Night 1 for over a year now and i've been focusing on other games and on the P:Y side story more.

However things are still going well at the moment.

Night 1 is a simple introduction for any player to imagine what the game will look like!

With different and unique tasks to complete , you'll be sure to enjoy your stay!

Right now Night 2 isn't in developement because as i said, i'm working on the Sidestory first!

Anyways here are some screenshots for Night 1 taken dirrectly from the game!

I won't show more for Night 1 as i'd like to keep things new and fresh for anyone !

But if you'd like to play the game completely blind then just don't read these devlogs and don't watch the trailers!

I mean, that's your choice!

Anyways let's get into the side story part!


Side Story

So, for now progress are going very good at the moment!

I'm currently working on the 3rd level of the side story which takes place in a city, a dentist's house and a kitchen!

Let's take a look at what the Side story is actually about and what it contains!

P:Y's Side story is a (around) 7-8 hours experience where you play cartoony characters named the Adventurers!

Play as Pepper the Parrot,Blitz the Bat and Lilly the Fox as you look for a rare crystal known as the wish maker!

These 3 kids have been seeing their families fight for too long against other tribes, and they can't handle it anymore!

So they decide to go on an Adventure to find the wish Maker.

Thus ask to give peace to everyone!

However things will get more complicated , the creatures in this world aren't all friendly , So you and the 3 kids will have to be careful!

side_story_intro_picture.jpg

They will then meet a character known as the Rhino! Who will help them to find the Crystal!

But of course, he will reveal being a bad guy as the adventure goes on!

So the Adventurers will have to fight him multiple times to get their wish!


Level 1 : The Forest

The first level of the Side story takes place in a Forest.

Just after the Adventurers left their village they went into a Forest. However a creepy and dangerous character is living in it! And that is.... The Beekeeper!

A terrifying villain with the goal of killing anyone from the tribe of the good guys. He will hunt down the kids as they continue going deeper into the woods!

gif1.gif

The Beekeeper is the first villain you'll encounter in the game!

The First level of the Side story can be an hour long at MAX.

Use Lilly to repare machines,Pepper to find objects and Blitz to see in the dark!

gif2.gif

The Side story also contains simple to hard puzzles, where you'll need your brain to work enough to find a solution to the problem! The puzzles will get more and more complicated as the game goes on! So be sure to think about it !

The game will then introduce you to the main mechanic of Level 1 , which is "Crouching"!

Use it to become invisible in tall grass or water!

It will help you avoid the Beekeeper and continue your adventure!

gif4.gif

Each villain in the side story have their own voice and personality!

As you progress into the wood you'll see more and more times the Beekeeper, and will then have to defeat him to be able to stay alive!

But of course, you'll be hiding more than fighting something like this!

gif7.gif

Some of the GIFs here are completely new and some of them were seen in the P:Y trailer 3 .

Now Let's get into level 2 of the game!


Level 2 : The Desert

Second level takes place in a very hot place, or to be precise, a desert! In this level you'll have a new mechanic (almost useless mechanic) which is Thirst!

You'll need to drink from time to time to avoid dehydration!

Then more puzzles comes on aswell as a new mechanic which is only seen in this level ! And that is the rail sections!

Control a "Minecart" on 3 different rails as you avoid the cactus and birds that tries to attack you!

This is quite short but surely a cool and unique mechanic!

gif8.gif

Now who's the main antagonist of Level 2?

It's.... The Minor!

A new antagonist who wants your death !

Living in the hot desert, he has been alone for too long!

And all he wants from you is to become another of his decorations on his walls!

You'll see him less than the Beekeeper but it doesn't mean that he's friendlier!

gif10.gif

Each level will work like this :

First the introduction of the antagonist

Then the parts with the antagonist

And third and ending or fight with the antagonist.

It is more inspired from Little Nightmares to be precise!

For some you might find this bad but for some you'll find it good! Well that's why the game have many different characters , mechanics and even games within a game!

(Example : 16 hidden games you can find)

gif14.gif

A new mechanic that will be introduced at the end of Level 2 is "Breathing mechanic"

Control your breath in a simple press of your space bar at the right time! Do it wrong however and the danger will hear you!

This mechanic will be here in almost every levels beside level 1, and will become harder and harder!

Now guess how the second level ends!


Level 3 : The City

This level is currently in developement and in drawing stage.

Right now i'm drawing all decorations to be able to make scenes in the actual game!

This level takes place in a City known as The Light City or something else i can't remember lmao.

This is actually the biggest level of the Side story and will be about 2-3 hours long!

for now i don't have much to say about it than showing GIFs and WIP content but maybe i'll introduce you to another good character first!

And this is Astrid the Wolf!

astrid_wolf.jpg

A cute and kind Wolf living in the City for as long as she can remember! She lost a hand and now tries to protect anyone who can find their demise in this city!

She will be a playable character that will only be seen in level 3! She also have multiple new mechanics such as having a graplin hand to avoid big gaps ! and maybe some other stuff!

But for now we'll see later!

Now before i show GIF s of the Level 3 i'll introduce you to all the villains of this level!

First villains our the Light Head robots and they are everywhere in the city looking for someone to kill!

these are the ones who took Astrid's Hand by burning it!

Second are the Light Head people and the Host of the show!

Few people having lights as eyes are addict to a game show, a game show where you'll be part of! Of course we know haters and they are !

Third is the Kitchen so guess what? A butcher!

Wait 1 butcher? Nope not enough 5 butchers!

Really no! lmao just 3 butchers (i'm stoopid)!

And then you'll have your first fight with the Rhino

and lastly you'll encounter a Dentist!

Now i won't give more informations about this level!

But here are few GIF and teasers for ya!

Now before we get into the last part of this Devlog i want to show some old designs for the antagonist of Level 1 and 2!

First here's the old and New design for the Beekeeper!

old_vs_new.png

I honestly prefer the new design from the orginal one, don't you agree?

Then Level 2 completely changed! It was actually planned to take place in a cave! But due to few issues i decided to scrap the entire level!

There are still parts of the cave level in the game that you can find! And it means that there wasn't the minor yet so who was the main atagonist of level 2?

Well it was a creature called "The Climber"

A octopus monster living deep inside the caves of the Adventurers's world!

scrapped_character_vs_new_character.png

I honestly like more the desert level than the cave concepts and that is why i decided to scrap it!

Now lastly i want to tell you all the locations of the levels from the side story before we get into the last part okay?

		
			1 - Forest
2 - Desert 
3 - City , Kitchen , Dentist
4 - Sea , Underwater base
5 - Arctic , Facility 
6 - Fox Tribe
7 - Graveyard and the Tower
		
	

That's all for now! Let's get into the last part of the Devlog!


Other informations

First i'll be glad to introduce a creepy character known as the Big Bad Wolf! A creepy Wolf that will be seen in Vision 3 of the game!
