Progress Update No. 10


The Puppet (is their actual name public yet? Did I reveal that yet? It's been a while, for now I'll just go with Puppet) is completely reworked and finished again, as is most of the systems relating to the cameras. It's a small step, but something notable nonetheless. Would also like to mention:

  • Initial coding for the old version of the Puppet took several days if not a week, and was extremely messy and performance heavy.

  • The current version of the Puppet was finished coding in a manner of hours, is extremely clean, and is significantly lighter on performance. Their jumpscare has also been reanimated from the ground up, as I wasn't pleased with their older one. Will likely still touch it up before any form of release.

So yeah. Probably for the best that I did this whole reprogramming thing. Also got the basic movement code back in for almost every other enemy in the game, just need to re-set up their camera states. Got a little bit of modeling work done, too, as well as a lot of minor reworks to the player and the office.

Tldr; We're getting there. Shouldn't be long and I'll be back to where I was when I took a break, but I'll admit I'm probably not making the release I wanted. Should still be done before the end of the year, assuming nothing gets in the way.

Thanks for reading. See you again soon.

Next up

My new small horror project, ATONEMENT, is out now. It's a scavenger horror game featuring music composed by the creator of Slender: The Eight Pages, with similar gameplay to go along with it.

Game is currently undergoing some major reworking on the code side (and my contracted project is still taking full priority on my part), so here's a little something in light of the lack of updates.

I'm close to finished with all the necessary visual stuff for the update. It's been a long time coming, but it should be ready for release this Summer.

The game page for my next game release, the FNaF-inspired "CASINO CASUALTY", is live! It is set to release on September 13th, should everything go according to plan.

Progress Update No. 7

STEAM PAGE IS LIVE / HOUSE OF CARDS PROGRESS UPDATE

Unreal Engine has some uh...interesting rendering bugs...

yeah idk how this happened. I just accidentally moved a slider too much and hell broke loose.

The new update is officially planned out and set in stone. It's going to be a bit of a departure from the main game, gameplay-wise, and going to take some time. To compensate, it will act as the game's sequel and the conclusion to the story. See you soon.

Progress Update No. 9.5

This is BEYOND early WIP, but a promise is a promise. Thanks for 300+ followers! Have a peek at a certain feature which may or may not be present in the demo (to an extent)
