'A RE-THINK..'


I’ve built up a bit of the maze and started the blender player.. It gets around 5-10 fps. As far as I know, this is a limitation of blender, but I don’t have the time (or in some cases, money) to learn a new engine or code language. However, this doesn’t mean ‘game over’ for this game - it just means a re-think.

This re-think will be about how the game is going to have to play - since I can’t have too much geometry in one scene. An obvious solution may be what used to be done in slightly older games, when one map was split into sections and loaded separately. This could be done. Or, I may have a smaller map, but more maps to compensate. I could have a house map; a maze; a garden - anything. And it could mean I would have to find some clever way to link them together for the sake of a continuital story (for story mode).

I’m not quite sure how I’m going to do it at the moment, but I will experiment with ideas and keep you posted. Also, any ideas of your own would be greatly appreciated as well! :)

Thanks for reading,
From Aaron (hourglassStudios) :D

We are under attack!

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?

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

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

If you have more of an acquired taste, the restaurants in Niravasi have you covered! Maybe skip the salad bar, though.

Let me introduce you to the new Mech line: Gendai Spec. Those are Mech that specializes in surprise attacks, covered operations, and stealth. They are equipped with melee weapons but one of Gendai's frames supports sniper rifles.
