Development Update(9/19/18)


I’m changing gears with the game and focusing more around Adventure-esque gameplay rather than the hybrid gameplay seen in the SAGE 2018 demo.
Important changes:

  • Dash Drift and Boost have been removed entirely. Dash Drift is being saved for a different project.

  • Sonic’s model has been redone to fit the 2D artwork

  • Double jump has been added. Homing attack and air dash have been moved to their own button which will later be used for dashing.

The level design will be entirely reworked as well.

Additional fixes:

  • Sonic can no longer target objects behind him

  • Sounds and animations have been added to the homing reticle

  • Added dust particles for skidding

  • Proper peel-out animation

  • Peel-out can now be aimed

SONIC CALAMITY CAST ANNOUNCEMENT----------

After months of writing and putting this all together, I am proud to announce Calamity's voice cast.

SAGE Update The SAGE demo is complete! It is building as I am typing this, after which I will be submitting it to the SFGHQ showcase. The demo will also be available here, but I will not be uploading it until SAGE starts on August 25th.

Sonic Calamity updates: moved to Unity HDRP for better visuals, and it's going to be built with its own engine, Calamity Engine.

A little WIP taste

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

Runestones: from concept to in-game model🗿

Protege el conocimiento, salva la historia. Guardian of Lore es un platformer 2D en el que debes luchar para mantener viva la memoria de la mitología latinoamericana. El juego llegará a Steam el 18 de mayo: https://steam.pm/app/1211740 #ScreenshotSaturday

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)

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.
