Immortal Chronicles - Alpha
6 years ago

Before the Alpha 4 update that has smithing, alchemy, and more rooms come out I made a stop gap update with some improvements and small new feature. Read the article on this post for full information. The update is alpha 3.3.


Getting straight into it

Changes
- Made variable jump height. Basically the longer you hold the jump button you higher you jump. This allows short hop jumps which will have some platforming areas about to come out.

- UI oh boy was this changed. The UI was updated graphically was just to make it look a little nicer. Some menus were rework to make them look better and require less clicking on options.
- Status screen on main menu area.

- Improved the combat knock back a bit and damage hit box timers. This will be improved even more.

New features

-Monsters drop items now yeah.

Granted we only have the skeleton warrior at the moment, but the alpha 4 update fixes that.

Fixes

  1. I fixed some issues with some rooms not transiting smoothly from one room to another room.

  2. Fixed some collider issues to caused some weird issues when being under a one way platform that is by a wall.

  3. Fixed the player not leaving running animation when falling off the side of a platform.

Mini Dev Blog 6 - Ambience VFX/SFX and Settings Menu Update. I started to add some VFX and some ambience SFX for parts of the game. The main thing left before finishing alpha one is the settings menu for controls, graphics, and audio.

Here are some more NPC art. Next week we will have the character art for the town people started. One of these animations is just for small detail when entering the library randomly. Would be boring if every character only had one type of idle animation.

We wanted some of the walls in our game to be broken and crumbled. Not all of them being the same look so we also made tiles for broken walls where we can mix and match the tiles to make an unlimited amount of designs.

Alright after a crap ton of time we found a UI artist that can do pretty good. This is early Work in progress. We will release the next update when we get two menus screens done instead of waiting for all the UI to be completed. Look forward to it.

Started making a mini diagram to show each region and the connections between them. This way people will have a semi direction hint before the map system update comes out. There are more regions not shown. Note this doesn't include the fast travel system.

Work in progress knight attack. We are aiming to get out first three monsters made so you got a variety of monster to fight in the demo.

Working on some level design prototyping for some of the underground areas. Wanted to just share some things I am testing. Mainly having waterfalls as a background element for the caverns.

We talked about other areas in patch notes, but haven't shown some of the art. This is just a little thrown together demo of some of the clock tower art. We don't want to share the actually rooms or we might spoil somethings. https://gamejolt.com/games/immortalchronicles/445565

We got our new throne for the save rooms in the works. Hope you guys enjoy sitting on your new demonic throne every time you need to save. We are making animations for the character sitting on the throne soon. Hope you guys enjoy the upcoming update.

Just a little teaser of wip art for the upcoming library area. Going to have a new background made so the contrast looks better, but for now I am enjoying it. Do note will be uploading a gif within next couple days so you can see the animated objects.
