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.

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.

Second update to the early WIP Menu UI. We might change the bottom right info box because the right side is starting to get a little cluttered. Hope you guys enjoy it so far. https://gamejolt.com/games/immortalchronicles/445565

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.

Added a small box with the speakers name in it, so players can see who is speaking. Going to start showing off some smaller work in progress stuff starting now up to the first alpha. Each post will be focusing on one change for the first alpha.

For today's new art we got ourselves the low level boss door. It will end up animated with green fire in the eyes.

Got some of our favorite grim reaper's animations in with the first set of conversations with him. Will be in the next game build. Video showing off his little idle animation.

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.

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.

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.

Got volumetric lighting working with my custom shaders. Will need to tweak some settings and working on the castle environment lighting now. Pictures are with and without the lighting enabled for the player and throne.
