Next Update Preview


So it would seem as though I have some sort of odd habit where I make an update, then I disappear for a few months, then I re-appear to make an update, and rinse-and-repeat.

Either way, an update! Here, have some screens!

So, as you can see in these screens, I’m too lazy to crop out the window title. In actuality, it’s that the game has gotten a bit of a makeover visually. However, there’s some behind the scenes changes not visible here, so I’ll detail them!

Upcoming Changes:

  • Added a day counter! It increments up every 24 minutes!

  • Changed saving to use a file… file, instead of an .ini file.

  • Doesn’t matter to you, but I went through the code in the main game portion, and cleaned it up by commenting code and putting them into groups.

  • Adding onto the above, I renamed some objects so that I know what things are. Helps out a lot!

  • Fixed the game’s title being “SuriveZombies” instead of the better sounding “SurviveZombies.” If you liked it how it was before, sorry. Looks better.

  • Changed how survivors work; Instead of getting 1-5 survivors each check randomly, you get 1-3, and you can now only have a maximum of 10 survivors. Should make the game harder.

  • A visual makeover. Been a long time coming. This will basically make things looks nicer, and the wooden panels are part of the background, instead of just randomly existing on top of the background.

  • An options menu on the title screen. Currently, the only option is for how big you want your screen to be (Normal Size, 1.5x Size, 2x Size, 3x Size, etc.)

  • Changed the perspective object to be more centered in the screen, making the faux 3D look a lot nicer.

So far, those are all the changes coming in the update. I’ll probably have more. Or not! Hey, it hasn’t even come out yet!

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

Hi everyone! I started to create some environment props for my new video game, here is a cozy house in the forest. I'm planning to switch from Unity to Unreal... Let's see what new challenges I have to face. Made in Blender and Substance Painter.

I thought I would do a quick show and tell, with a 2 min video of the start of the game and some of the game elements, after many many months it is really starting to come together, time to start networking https://gamejolt.com/games/Dungeon_fable/490669

Here's a cool GIF I rendered of a character I'm working on for my latest project.
