1.6.0 Released!


For this release I’ve re-written most of the OpenGL code, adding atlases and optimizing batches, among other things. Performance has improved noticeably, mostly to make room for more simulation work in future releases.

Changes in this version:

  • Added anti-matter bomb

  • Added more control over sound effects and music

  • Game now starts in full-screen mode, and user can switch back and forth between full-screen mode and normal-screen mode

  • Paid off considerably technical debt in the OpenGL domain,
    with 20% performance improvement in the rendering subsystem

  • Another 10% performance improvement in the water and land contour interpolation

  • Revised bomb blast simulations

  • Lots of new ships, thanks to many contributors

Enemies can also suddenly spawn through Realm Rifts. These Rift Spawns are going to be stronger than the ones wandering around. TBD on the enemies... #screenshotsaturday #godstear #madewithunity

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?

"Our work is never over" they said.

Demonstration of the spells and their effects :)!

Hi everyone! I started to create some environment props for my new video game, here is a cozy house in the forest. I'm planning to switch from Unity to Unreal... Let's see what new challenges I have to face. Made in Blender and Substance Painter.

A few screenshots of the places you'll cross in the Demo of Blu. You can play it today on #gamejolt !

It's now possible to destroy some of the obstacles and gain access to new locations or create shortcuts. #gamedev #indiegame #rpg
