Log 01 - First Update


First off, thank you all for playing my game. This has shattered my expectations and been a surreal experience for me.

I guess introductions are in order: I am Zach, sole developer of this game, Rest Your Eyes. I make games apart from my normal job, so it can be hard to find the time to work on them on occasion. In addition to this normal strain, during this month of September I am working extended hours. So while patches and updates will be less frequent than I had initially hoped, do not fear - this game will be moving forward.

I appreciate all of the comments and videos people are posting - I’m a little behind at the moment but I am making the effort to respond to each comment and watch the videos fully. These are both encouraging to me as well as helpful (so I can find what is confusing vs. what works - and bugs too) so thank you.

I have a small patch I hope to release by the weekend; some minor bug fixes plus a hot fix to make spectator settings easier to notice for the streamers and youtubers out there.

Anyways, I hope you stick around for this journey with me. This response has blown away all my expectations - thank you again :)

— Zach

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

"Our work is never over" they said.

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist
