Game
The Ink Remains

Here's a short article about the current state of the game.

If you want to avoid spoilers, don't look at the one marked as such!


So, the game project has been an inconvenient mess for quite a while, courtesy of past me who didn't know any better. I'm done polishing a turd, so to speak, it's time to fix it all with a full remaster! Once finished, performance, visual quality and usability will all have improved. (It's a win-win for both players and I)

Here's the map layout remade in a much more efficient way:

  • There's way less geometry for the floors, ceilings and walls by instead using stretched quads with tiled textures.

  • I fixed the models using Blender because since they were ripped from a game the geometry got skewed.

  • Doing large scale changes is now really easy as I made sure every object in the scene is linked to a prefab.

There you go, that's what I got done for now. Stay tuned to learn about the future progress of this remaster!

New thumbnail! This one is more detailed than the previous :)

See this screenshot? It took a couple of attempts before getting a result that was worth talking about. Now it's been two years since my first attempt and my procedural generation system is at its 5th remaster. This time it's game worthy...

Damn, another #spawnday already! Time flies, it really does...

I finally made a highlight system for the items of my game. Now when you put the crosshair on an important object it gets highlighted! #devlog #fangame #batim

I remade the game page header and now it looks better. I will probably remake the thumbnail too.

I dual wielded sandwiches for the first time! I even got a visitor :)

Trying to figure out a consistent artstyle that I'd like. So I've been drawing away on various shapes. Here's my first completed attempt! I'm keeping it simple so it's all done in #Blender, hand-drawn + procedural noises. What do you think about it?

Mr. Headsenberg wants to sell you some blue... Do you accept?

Ah yes, perpetual motion... Well done random rigidbody 😂
