Let there be SOUND!!!


Picking up an in-game item just doesn’t really feel rewarding without that “bling” sound to reaffirm you got it. We already nailed the first layer of satisfaction when we added in the UI count. Before that, you had no idea if you got the gem or it just went away.

So off into the wilds of the internet I went to locate some open license-free sounds to help you feel like you got something rewarding when you grab a gem.

Here is what I picked for the gem:

After that was in I needed some sound for the key pickup, I choose anything really knowing it would later be replaced but here is what we are using right now for the key pick up:

After both pickups were in I wanted to add sounds for win/lose condition also. Which do you think is for which?

Still need that last layer of satisfaction with pick up, Visual Effects, but one step at a time :)

Story Sequence WIP Working on the intro sequence images over the next couple of days. I’m not sure how much detail I want to put in, so I’m going to do them all quickly and refine later.

Finishing the character models Working on updating the character models for the final game. Adding a lot more geometry including backpack, moving eyes and eyelids for Kat.

Light em up! Working on updating some of the temp environment assets. Getting the light models updated, adding a vision cone and changing the color to match the dog lights. Next I will finally paint the dogs. :)

Kat done for now Finished up the main character Kat model. I may make some edits after we get the rest of the game done, but its good enough for now. :)

Gem Rewards Working on the Gem Rewards screen. These will be linked to achievements based on how many total gems collected in the game. (500 total)

New lock and keys Updating the old temp locks and keys models. Adding some much needed theme, fidelity and style.

Game Done! The game is done! Please play it and leave a rating! We hope you enjoy the game. If you do please share it. :)

Major Bull! Here is the boss of the Dogo Corps and he is determined to catch that Kat!

Level 4 blocked in Just finished the main geometry and collision for Level 4 which will be the final level in the game. We will have a build with the tutorial and this level up soon. :)

Dogs textured Finally got the dogs re-UVed and a few variants painted. They should be in the game tomorrow so we can see what adjustments need to be made based on the lighting.
