Game
Pentagun
9 years ago

Okay, I was kidding, Pentagun will never be finished.


Originally, I wanted to close up shop for Pentagun and start over from scratch (Pentagun 2), but then I realized there isn’t a single thing I’d do for Pentagun 2 that couldn’t be done for this game. My original vision was to have a game that’s never quite done - it is ALWAYS receiving updates, ALWAYS growing, etc etc.

I think I’ll maintain that vision.

Instead of Pentagun 2, Pentagun will be receiving a 1.4 update, titled the “Winter 2017 Update.”

Here’s what to expect:
-3-5x increase in level size
-New enemy type
-Improved menu animations
-Lots and lots and lots of cleanups and bug fixes.

The only thing I may run in to trouble with is the huge increase in level size.

From Alpha 1.0 to Beta 1.0, the level size was around 497x3218. In Beta 1.1, this was increased to 497x10000. The level size has remain unchanged ever since.

In 1.4, the level size could see an increase up to 497x50000! This doesn’t mean that all game modes will take advantage of so much space, it just means that I’ll have plenty of room to make levels as long - or short - as I want.

So, where’s the problem? Performance.

We’ll see how this works out.

That is all for now. Here’s to Pentagun’s second rebirth (the release of 1.0 - exiting the beta stage - was supposed to be the end, but wasn’t, and now this).

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.

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?

Let me introduce you to the new Mech line: Gendai Spec. Those are Mech that specializes in surprise attacks, covered operations, and stealth. They are equipped with melee weapons but one of Gendai's frames supports sniper rifles.

I mostly build 3D First Person Shooter game mechanics in Unity, and in this I'm just showing C4 mechanics I made for a little side project I am working on! :)
