Game
Acceleroll
1 year ago

In the latest snapshot build the game has almost doubled in disk size... which I'd say is a good thing because this update is packed with content. Also general average play time is longer, if you want to see all the content.

I've been playing this level pretty much all afternoon. The momentum is so fun. I upped the speed just for this (really puts the Accelerate in Acceleroll!) (Also sorry Apple's Emoji keyboard randomly opened)

Target is getting a huge rework. I basically rewrote the movement code from scratch. You now have to actually fly and steer to score. It also makes multipliers harder.

Working on actual targets. Hitting this at long range feels so good.

I've been prototyping, and I've merged two of my secret-ish prototypes. You have the unit control society simulation (last prototype) and dynamic world painting with reactivity (my sand game). I also made my own update loop to help with time control. WIP

Target is getting a minor addition, multipliers! They multiply your score. And yes it is cumulative (all by x2), so a multiplier 4 * this powerup would be 8, thus leading to an x8 score (if you can land safely).

In the new mode you can find an updated variant of the desert levels! Thick sandstorms, howling winds, fog, limited visibility. Can you make it to the goal safely?

Learning a bit about falling sand type games. Really simple algorithm but so fun to tinker with. Very easy to add new behaviors/materials too. It's calling out to me for a sandbox (no pun intended) game.

Clickity Clack. I love the sound these make. I set it up so every ball collision makes this noise so you get all these super clacky sounds and I love it.

New menu, this one isn't claustrophobic and is organized kinda (top: main modes middle: minigames bottom: extras) some of which you can only unlock during gameplay. Also added videos for the two modes! Release hopefully soon!

Huge progress 🎯! The target minigame touch up is nearly complete. I basically coded the entire thing from scratch. It's really fun now! This is how I wanted it in the game jam but time made it difficult.
