COLD CASE

About the main menu (О главном меню):


: When the game was in its early stages, I experimented with different main menu designs. They were deliberately dark, as the plot at the time revolved entirely around an exorcism. The last image shows the final design, which I think is pretty good, but it may be a temporary solution.

From the very beginning, I had the idea of ​​making the main menu background resemble a slideshow. However, I decided to change the concept. Now the menu will track your progress in the game and adapt to the moment (for example, like the Half-Life 2 main menu, which changes the background depending on the sections of the game you've completed).

Fun fact: there used to be a multiplayer section, but I removed it.

: Когда игра была в начальной стадии, я экспериментировал с разными вариантами главного меню. Они были нарочито мрачными, поскольку сюжет тогда целиком строился вокруг экзорцизма. На последней картинке показан последний дизайн, который, на мой взгляд, неплох, но, возможно, это временный вариант.

С самого начала у меня была идея сделать фон главного меню похожим на слайд-шоу. Однако я решил изменить концепцию. Теперь меню будет учитывать ваш прогресс в игре и подстраиваться под нужный момент (например, как в главном меню Half-Life 2, которое меняет фон в зависимости от пройденных частей игры)

Забавный факт: ранее там был раздел сетевой игры, но я убрал его

Well, I decided to go with a bigger version, but I still made it smaller so as not to take up too much space. Here's some animation. (I think I use small sprites somewhere, maybe for icons in the inventory?)

Yesterday I was working on a small thing and made a mistake that limited the character to walking diagonally, which worked well for the stairs.

No matter how elaborate the new sprite was, by means of an honest vote, the irresistible Goliath was defeated. Farewell for a long time, although I will find a use for you in another game.

Speaking of sprites, this is what the old versions looked like, even smaller and pot-bellied. At the moment I am more than happy with their appearance, but who knows, maybe they will change again someday.

I have already posted about how I would like to see the chapters/missions selection screen, but I have a better idea, I think it will suit more.

I often see faces on carpets

I'm currently creating a chapter select screen. This is a temporary menu option for now. Later I'll make a more creative and authentic one to match the atmosphere and concept of the game.

so, I made my new OC, what do you think?
