Building a level:

This week, we blocked out a level, tested it and then filled it with more beautiful environmental assets!

Players can really learn the core of the game here and prepare for battle. This is iteration 2/3 until it is added to the game!

Experience spheres 📘

Can you spot the blue spheres? They give you experience points that will let you grow your character! Melee combat = more risk but higher reward!

This week, we added support for controllers (Xbox, PS4)! 🎮

The tooltips update automatically to let you know how to use the controls. Feels like the controls fit the game very well, and are excellent for platforming. 🦘

Materials ⚙️

After several playtests it has become clear that there are a lot of items cluttered on the ground - you can now dismantle them and use the materials as a resource! Let's keep our town tidy 🧹

Added a dismantling option for unused swords or armor - can you ever have too many particles? 🐣 🎆

The materials you get from dismantling weapons or boxes can be used to repair old buildings, such as the mill!

The mice from the mill will distract any hungry critters nearby 🐭🍞

Feathers 🪶🪶

The characters now finally have reached the fluffyness they were intended to have!

Working on this pandemic game since 6 months - play as birds and evolve! 🐣

Grounded Birds is lighthearted, easy to pick up but also pretty dark. It's about birds that are literally grounded ( can't fly anymore ) and need to find a way to survive. 🐤🐦

A first look at a new game prototype! Over the last days: multiplayer, building stuff, and cheetahs chasing you. Sticking to core mechanics first is tough, had to stop myself from going all-in on art and sound too soon!

Goldrushers has been greenlit!
