Lutaland - Monthly Devlog 1


Welcome to the first monthly Lutaland devlog! From now on, I will be posting these progress reports on the last day of each month as an overall summary of the game's progress. Without further ado, here's the devlog!

Programming

I have made several large breakthroughs in Lutaland's programming this month. Some of the more important ones are:

A working text engine with character face plates,

(similarly) a cutscene system for the new boss, whose name is yet to be revealed,

and much more! I hope you enjoy these small sneak peeks.


Music

As you have probably seen, Lutaland's soundtrack is relatively short so far. However, I'm always working on preparing new tracks.

I also have a Soundcloud page! Check it out here:

Writing

My friends and I are working hard on Lutaland's script! It's not much but here's a screenshot of some of our writing:

...and that's it! I hope you enjoyed reading the devlog, and I can't wait for what's to come!

I fixed the water problem, and also ended up going down the rabbit hole of adding oceans, which were incredibly difficult to make. I figured it out though, and I think it looks pretty good! What do you think?

Throughout your journey in Lutaland, you may encounter these small camps where nomadic Lutas who roam the planet will come to rest! If these camps are being used, you may be able to buy items from the nomads or be sent on quests!

I'm testing an inventory/menu for Lutaland! The text used in the menu is only a placeholder, and will be replaced with sprites later on. With that said, what do you think?

Our 2024 Advent Calendar has opened! Day 28: @Silentfaith is a great Creator and comic artist who also codes fan games! Accept the quest and give them a follow to get Coins and a seasonal sticker!

I recently created this song for the Lutaland OST to be used later in the game. Give me your thoughts on it in the comments!

IT'S FINALLY HERE!

I finished all the icons for the inventory! Now all that's left is to... actually... program it...

I'm working on some equipment ideas for KT to wear in Lutaland! A few are shown in the above image, so tell me what you think!

Happy #WIPWednesday!

Are you working on a game?

Making some art?

Practicing a song?

Something else?

Tell us in the comments!

I made this Lutaland art, what do you think? This will likely be used in the game as some sort of loading screen.
