DEAD DRIFT UPDATE!

I'm still working on the missions, and it's been harder than I anticipated. However, I was able to make missions work (even if the UI is a little janky)!

Click on Read Article for more info!


As of now, missions already collect information from the runs, such as zombies killed, time survived, level reached, and it's easy to implement new parameters.

Also, missions can already award two types of reward:

  • New Powers: most powers are initially locked, and need to be unlocked by completing missions;

  • Stat Increases: some game stats, such as initial lives, bullet damage, car speed, etc, etc, can be increase by static mission rewards.

These two reward types cover almost all types, the only one left is the "New Vehicle" award, which is going to be harder because the game's not yet ready for more than one vehicle. This is the next thing I'll be working on, though!

That's it for now, folks!

See ya soon!

WORKING A BIT ON THE MISSIONS UI!

Last time I posted a kinda bare bones version of this screen, now we got some of its art!

Still not totally satisfied with all elements, but I guess it's already a nice improvement :)

For this #DrawABirdDay I decided to make a simple animation as if Greedy Grackle was one of the Socks from Sock Town!

HI! I'm getting close to hitting 1000 FOLLOWERS (woohooo!) and I'm thinking about doing some special things to celebrate this:

- A mini-game using the sock puppets!

What do you think of that?

NEW UI PLANNING!

Since the beginning of this project, I've done its UI in a somewhat haphazard way. Now it's time to get some things right, so I'm planning to fix some things about its user interface.
