Whew! Finally got a first playable build out to some friends. Still so much work to do but it was nice to get a end to end game out the door. Now to wrap up the last major system, then polish, polish, polish....and polish!

Starting to work on the intro area for level 3. Still a ways to go in over all level design but needed to get some art going this week. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Finally getting back to some work on SB2. Right now I'm taking a crack and working through the over all look with some early texture tests here. Before it was a random assortment of stuff so I'm trying to have a more cohesive vision.

New screenshots uploaded!

New screenshot for the end of level 2.

I wanted to try something with the textures. I'm a huge fan of old school 90s shooters sort of grungy pixelated textures. So I wanted to try and capture that but still have some color and pop into it.

Worked through these little dudes as my enemies. Still need to work on gibs and the shot effects but I'm pretty happy with how these turned out. I also messed up my lighting, so I need to fix that. Feels good to be back at it!

Some more props for the next level. Next week I will be focusing on mechanics so I might not have a screenshot, enjoy this one!

New screenshot, currently retexturing the first level. Still a bit to go before the level is feeling good.

Final environment update for the week. Got some billboards in the game and started to add some of the companies to them. Excited to have next week for a few more environmental props then some GUI work. Debating if I'm going to investigate some lighting.

I was able to get a ton of development done this month. Second weapon mod is in, enemy shot indicator is in, first player mod is in, refined the level layout a bit. Now time to spend doing some art for the next month.
