Game
Wave One
9 years ago

Coming Along Nicely!


The past couple days were pretty busy for me, so I didn’t get all that much dev time in, but today I spent a solid 5 hours working on Wave One (and I’ll probably put a few more hours in tonight!) but I’m happy to report the following additions to the game:

  • I actually added gameplay. What was before just a home menu is now something you can actually play. (aka spaceships to blow up)

  • Lots of screen shake for an impactful experience.

  • A particle system for dynamic explosions

  • Laser cannon will overheat if you use it to much, causing you to have to wait extra time before you can use it again

  • Player health with Game Over on death

  • 2 of the many powerups planned

So there is a lot more for me to do, but already the game is kind of a blast to play. It shouldn’t be very long (1 week?) before the game is ready for some play testers. But I’ll make a whole new post for that.

So what do you think? Are you excited? Have ideas to make the game better? Interested in being a play tester? Let me know in the comments. :D

Runestones: from concept to in-game model🗿

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…).

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)

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?

Today I tackled drawing different variations of facial expressions for one of the main characters in Eden. What do you think of it? :) Eden: https://gamejolt.com/games/Eden/592698
