RINSED - Open Alpha 0.1.5 - The Christmas update


Hello there!

I hope you are all doing well and enjoy the winter season so far. The Christmas update for RINSED just went live and in this small devlog I want to give you a quick overview of what's going on :)

So what's new in this update? First of all: This update does not include the new island or any of its features (even though it already includes a few items related to the big update as some sort of teaser).

The download size might be a bit bigger because the new Island is already included in the game files of this version but you can't reach it in any way in-game due to it still being very unfinished.

As a little Christmas event, there are now presents hidden all around the island. Those presents do not only include cakes and fireworks but rare and highly limited Christmas items as well! There is a Santa hat and a scarf to be found. Furthermore, a very rare item that will make reaching the new island much easier as soon as it releases can be found ;)

As already mentioned, fireworks can be found. If you can't get enough of them, you can buy them as well for small money at the western teashop in Kings harbor.

Besides the Christmas event, fireworks, and Christmas decorations all around the island, a few other things have been changed or fixed with this update:

-Fixed a bug that caused audio stuttering for rain and heavy rain

-Fixed rope climbing triggering a door sound

-Added Pickaxe

-Tweaked a few items

-Changed some item descriptions

-Did much work on the new island

-Added discord invite link to the main menu

-More secret stuff

We hope you enjoy this little Christmas update and we wish you all great fun finding all the presents! Updates on the new Island will follow soon, to get special insights into the development process make sure to join our discord server:

We wish you beautiful holidays and a great start in 2021!

As the glow stone cave was flooded and then isolated from the outside world for a few hundred years, it developed its own unique and oddly strange flora and fauna!

Finally happy with the "indoors" part of the game! Adding a small, closed off area to the open world of the forest was challeging but worth it. Lots of enviromental story telling in this one! :)

Made new Flowerpots with different variants for further decorating cities and villages! :)

We’re teaming up with @NEOWIZ_QUEST to support developers with a narrative game jam! 🤯 The jam kicks off on October 31 in the Game Dev community, so start brainstorming and assemble your team.

Its almost been a year since I developed "9:16" and im still proud of what I achieved! I tried to push the visuals to be as photorealistic as possible and keep the gameplay as immersive as I could. Give it a try and tell me what you think :)

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

Soon you will be a part of it.

A little sneak peek on the first Island you will be able to travel to by ship! This island features lush green vegetation, lots of flowers, new wildlife, and of course rare items and a few riddles ;)

Hoomanz! is a stealth-adventure game by @koffeecup that's PACKED with coziness and humor.

Hey everyone! I just wanted to quickly announce that 9:16 is now free for everyone to download! It's been a while since I worked on this project and I decided that I want everyone to experience this unique project instead of hiding it behind a paywall!
