Lucid

Switching our focus to Lucid temporarily, and what we've done with it so far.


Development of The Nest has been put on pause.

@Megallix spent some time planning out the progression of Lucid, and so we decided to work on it instead, taking a break from The Nest.

So far, she's reduced the region count, and therefore chapter count, to just 5 instead of the original 17. This doesn't mean we're getting rid of any content, it just means that most of the regions turned into sub-regions.

After that, she spent another day making a fully planned out progression for Chapter 1.

We won't be revealing what happens in Silverwood Forest just yet. Lucid will be developed up to the first boss, and then we will go back to working on The Nest. Silverwood Forest takes place after the first boss, so we'd be spoiling too much.

Some planning that isn't progression or story was also done.
Lucid will now be a 3D game with a fixed perspective.
Characters will be rendered in 2D and will be able to rotate to face 8 directions.
Think Paper Mario but with Doom 1993 character sprites.
Everything will still be pixel art, the world will just be modeled in 3D.

That's all we've got for now.

We will post more updates once proper in-engine development begins.

We are under attack!

Fan art for Foolish I'm feeling kinda better so I drew this

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

We made a lot of improvements on the Freezing Plains visual. Things like pine trees, tiny bushes, some rocks, and others game props!

Today I was setting up the location of the first boss. His name is "Father" and he is the first of the Patagonians. His task is to guard the road to the House.🛡🗡 Bookmark pre-launch page🔖🔖🔖

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist

Today I tackled drawing different variations of facial expressions for one of the main characters in Eden. What do you think of it? :) Eden: https://gamejolt.com/games/Eden/592698
