Next Build update #2


A new build is on way but it’s not ready yet because of multiple things that I’ll explain here:

First of all I want you to take a look at the progress that I made ^_^ :

I have started to implement the actual story that I have for the game (not the silly dialogue that the mother says when you go out of the room when starting a new game). I’m working hard to make the NPC and characters feel alive and unique.

For that objective I have fully animated Emma and Allisa using her School Uniform as you can see in the gif and also I’m polishing a follow function for Emma so it reaches the objective for that but it does not feel annoying . What you see it’s not final I have already made some more changes to that scene and I’m working in a new cool animation for Emma for this event.

What I need to do to release a new build

-Add a new location
-Put every NPC for that location (because they are important)
-Add the new concept that I have for the platform part
-Program the new level that I have which will have some story content

Why the next Build is taking so much time?

3 Main thingies:

  • I spent one week working for a little sim for a presentation and also in meeting with my classmates.

  • I was able to afford a good pc to develop the game so getting everything in it place took me some time

  • There is a possibility to show the official demo of my game at MegaconHN which is an event in my country for cosplayers, people who collects figures and now videogames so I want to polish as much as I can this demo which means more time but better quality ^_^. I’m still waiting for their confirmation but I’m already working on it.

Thanks for following the development of EVO It means a lot <3

Quick note: - I had an issue with animations but it got solved. (For prototyping) - I just delivered a project for a client. I'm working on a boring but useful app for another client. I won't be able to post frequently (gotta pay the bills). #shooter

We are going from left to right. Why? the answer soon. (Don't you think that peeking ear is cute? ) - Limitations: I have to deliver 2 non-game related projects so I'm doing progress but slowly, I work on parts that help me relieve stress from work.

Instead of using the 3D model of a future game of mine (Last gif) I'll use this placeholder (more personalized) that shows the feel I'm trying to communicate in the game. I tried VRoid for 1 1/2 hour and I think I can use this model for prototypes

Paper prototype for the Leveling system based on a moral one finished! Unfortunately I can't share it since it is on paper, but tomorrow I'll start working on the digital one for the shooting part and if there is time this week I'll include this one on it

After doing some play-testing at the office, I concluded the following: - The shooting prototype will feel better with normal shooter movement. - The "Moral system" is engaging but needs more options. - 3rd person view feels good for exploration.

I just finished the shooting part. I'll try upload this prototype and the paper one I did so I can receive feedback early. This are gameplay prototypes which means: It should feel engaging even with placeholders. Aesthetics come after it feels fun.

Lack of updates due to: - An event. (Pics) - Signed a contract to develop an app (ends July). 2 more apps in the queue - Improving and porting Void in the Sky (https://gamejolt.com/games/void-in-the-sky/406864) for PC and ??? (requires less time) - Still working on Soul Update

The prototypes build is ready and I was preparing a video for that post but I got a call today for a meeting tomorrow and I have to prepare some info TT_TT ... I'll post it tomorrow !

Today I tweaked a little bit the face (Pic 1) and tested a few animations (gif). I was in an event from work so I couldn't progress that much but I want to have a better prototype build before February ends. See you soon! #shooter #anime

1st Digital prototype... almost finished.. due to "The genius" that crashed into an electricity pole near the office and I had to work on the prototype until 1 am :). Shooting is the only thing missing (Dash, aim + ray cast done). Will share it this week
