Here are the three new powers i'm developing: Laser Pistol, Toxic Fumes and Thick Blood!

For more information on the powers, click "Read Article" below!

Here's what these three new powers do:

Laser Pistol is pretty simple: it substitutes the regular bullet for a laser stream which damages everything in its path. The gif doesn't capture all frames, so it looks a little weirder than it looks in the game. Also, I intend to add more effects to make it look more "lasery"...

Thick Blood is a power that creates a random chance (depending on the upgrade's level) that when a zombie is killed, it releases an oil puddle. This oil puddle is the same as the one released by the Oil Spill power. This will allow for cool synergies with inflammable effects!

Finally... Toxic Fumes is a power that replaces the car's standard dust cloud for a purple, toxic smoke that damages zombies over time! Be smart about lining them up behind you and letting them choke!

Some of the art for these powers is a little rough, I know: that's because I'm focusing more on the design and development side of things as of now, to get a playable version ready as soon as possible!

That's it for now, folks! See ya!

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)!

Sharing the pixel art I did for a personal project I never got to make. The player would control an enchanted chest that had to investigate the disappearance of its wizard master!

What do you think? Would this had looked cool?

CONSTRUCT TUTORIAL - SPRINGY MOVEMENT (PART 2/2)

Let's keep going! We're going to make a flower bounce today, and we have a lot of work to do!

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

Here's what I'm thinking to celebrate the 1K followers milestone... the very first SOCK TOWN prototype!

It's heavily inspired by the Reigns game, but instead of being about being a king... it's about being the director of the "Sock Town" TV show!

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Posting some other DEAD DRIFT EXPERIMENT GIFS. You can see "enemy trucks" (the dark rectangle thingies roving around) AND big zombies (they have 10x the HP of a regular zombie!!)

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

CONSTRUCT TUTORIAL TIME! I wanted to make a "mini-article" on how to make the distance-based zoom control mechanic I did for Dead Drift since it's so easy!
