Brief update on progress


Hello everyone!
Just figured I’d post an update on how development is going.
I’ve managed to finish up another three levels for the endless mode, which means that only two remain before I’ve managed to finish up all the levels for the full release of the game.
Most of the progress recently has, however, been under the hood things like optimization and bug fixes. Mostly I’ve focused on:
texture compression,
merging textures,
streamlining use of textures to avoid textures only used a small amount of times,
merging objects to get only one shadow caster,
minimized drawcalls further by merging objects.
These fixes combined should mean that the game will run better on lower end computers.
Next week I will be finishing up the remaining two levels to be able to focus more energy to fixing sounds and music finally. There should also be a green light campaign on the way towards the end of the year/early 2017 hopefully.

There will be an update to correct some issues present in the current build around Nov 30th.

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

We made a lot of improvements on the Freezing Plains visual. Things like pine trees, tiny bushes, some rocks, and others game props!

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?

Quantum precognition is one of the most powerful cards. End game cards & equipment. Demo/alpha build boss is no match for this deck.

What you all think

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Showing off player 2 😎
