Part 2

Adding Character

  • Open your character blueprint (default in 2DPlatformerBP folder)

    We will need it later but open it to save time

  • Make idle flipbook

    Select 3 idle sprites and make flipbook from them

The best nightmare? A level placed in the house (I didn't say it's not haunted). You will see on your own in 0.0.5 update! It will take some time to finish this map and add a little bit of story. Stay tuned :)

New tutorial soon!

I'm posting coin sprites. You can download them and try to make rotating coin. If you don't know how, you should wait for tutorial. Don't worry I will help you :)

For now you only have to download these sprites and import them to UE4.

Hey, I made third room for my game. Here you'll have to find a key and video which will be played on the TV in the corner. No more spoilers! Watch streams on twitch to get private testing keys. See you soon and of course... Have a great day!

Hi, Today's dev-log will be short. I managed to add new main menu background. I added a map with camera, so now you can see live environment. I also added music to the menu. You can see background map on the photo. Have a nice day :)

I've just finished small map where you have to solve a riddle. It's pretty easy but I don't want to spoil anything. I'm posting some of the photos I took on ultra settings :) (don't worry, there are also low graphics settings)

The final post-processing, lighting and fog are done. On the photos you can see how it looks. Now I only have to add something to the story, some quests and of course, easter eggs. If you want to get early access key, read article.
