I ended up really disliking my road trip game, so I'm experimenting some more. Cooked a quick A* implementation, it's such a pain to set up but it's much nicer than Unity NavMesh. (It mostly works :P)

Perfectly normal game of golf (still working on some camera issues)

No longer forcing 4:3. Also added this jump particle. Also didn't mention this in the last post, but the outline is procedural, so it works on custom characters too.

Working on making an elevation view, camera stuff, and different clubs. Very inspired by Mario Golf, and also just golfing games in general.

FinLab 1.1.0 (Time & Temp) is here! This update brings a more mechanically deep experience, changes to the core loop, some fixes/changes + some more fish and decor, there is a LOT so here is the full changelog below:

When an egg is active, it will be placed in the tank. You can get a ton of interesting colors based on your fish species!

Harvested the black hole shader from my prototype, one of my favorite shaders. It's both mesmerizing and terrifying (fairly simple too).

Doing this silly feature to go along with my Y2K aesthetic. I'm making a fake internet for the game that also serves as an in-universe guide. The writing is terrible, I binged this feature in like 2 hours with the stomach flu.

🧪Testing a new feature, tank temps! Fish now have a desired temp range. This is user controlled but a) the more extreme the more expensive the daily bill is, and b) it will slowly drift to the environmental neutral (affected by season and weather).

I went off the radar recently because I sorta burnt out on the collectathon. I've been working on a smaller game concept. I've kept it pretty silent because I'm not sure it'll work. It's a long distance road trip simulator game where you deliver packages.
