Devlog 2: Gameplay prototype


So the Gameplay Prototype is finished.

What’s in it?

Menu

First, i’ve added a simple menu. It’s obviously not final, as is all graphics shown. It has a pathway to the test room, the destruction gamemode, and the battle gamemode.

Destruction mode

Second, I’ve added the first (and probably main) gamemode, destruction.

As shown above, you have a limited time to destroy a certain amount of the area. (The gif is mid level due to the length of the full gameplay severely ruining the quality)

Battle mode

To be honest, designing this was a lot harder than designing destruction mode. Destruction mode was simple, what else would work other than time limit based destruction.

As shown, it is similar to destructrion mode as you have a limited time to destroy a certain amount of enemys.

The problem with designing it was how I wanted it to play like. At first, I made it slow, giving it the feel of being an unstopabble killing machine. Lot’s of health, but slow speed, very tanky.

I tested it, and it wasn’t fun. When I tried to change the speed, it started to feel like hotline miami, admittedly it was more fun, but it wasn’t what I wanted. So I tampered a bit and reached what I wanted.

It sucked

I found that hotline miami with destructible terrain was more fun. The extra health helped me find a middle ground, so you still get some feel of being a giant robot.

Well that’s everything I’ve added.

New’s

So now theres a gameplay prototype, I’m ready for playtesting.

If your interested in playtesting, contact me at [email protected].

Thanks for reading

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

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)

Demonstration of the spells and their effects :)!

Showing off player 2 😎

What do you think?

blender animation experimentation, getting the hang of things fast. arms, rig, & gun models by me ofc

Animation test. Not an actaul conclusion to who wins sonic vs Mario. Just a test animation combo.

Development of my game Juno. This is the rune equipment system.

It's now possible to destroy some of the obstacles and gain access to new locations or create shortcuts. #gamedev #indiegame #rpg
