Introducing map-based Climate


Happy to share that I’ve been working on some solid ideas to take this game forward!

I’ll talk about one today and others later as they get implemented.

So now the map has a concept of “poles” and climate that varies according to the latitude. Near the north and south poles, you get ice, and in equator a lot more heat (desert). This has direct influence on the simulation and each tiles “win” over others. Like this it will be nicer to create spots for certain life forms. The map is still infinite, but going up or down will just get you ice Smiley

Two new tiles have been introduced: Ice and Tundra. Which means I’ll also introduce 2 or 3 new animal species soon to make this their habitat Smiley

here’s a small gif scrolling from the north pole to the equator

Just as Pecaminosa's musicians #improvise this rendition of #LittleSunflower 🌻, so do we improvise with this post you're reading. 😂

What's coming out of your own improvs? 🤔

Enemies can also suddenly spawn through Realm Rifts. These Rift Spawns are going to be stronger than the ones wandering around. TBD on the enemies... #screenshotsaturday #godstear #madewithunity

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

One of the most critical update for Sunblaze demo. Now you are able to pet a cat! Finally!
