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.

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.

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

Sometimes it does feel like this 😆

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.

Did some progress on the next part of the Depot. This area is going to be a bit less spacious than the previous one.

Something of an atrium in the middle of an office area.

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

Polished the side project a bit more. Added sounds, fixed some ui things, added a movement sprite for the sword, made the enemies fade out on death.
