Re-make alpha almost ready for release


OK - sorry. I should have posted sooner.

I’ve been working on the new version of the game for about three weeks. It’s about 80% of what I had in the original version (after 3-6 months of development). I’ll be releasing it fairly soon, because it’s a pretty solid engine, which will hopefully show my hard work.

Here’s a rough list of the features I’ve implemented so far:

Procedural Generation of a planet 10,000 by 10,000 pixels in less than a second (very basic so far - I need to work on this more). > 2 unique enemy types, with individual AI for each (Passive and Aggressive) > Tools, weapons, and materials to pick up and collect. > Ability to examine, equip or throw any item from your inventory. > Hold up to 34 items in your inventory as you travel, and store 120 more in your base. > Wield the axe to chop down trees and collect wood. > Each item / tool / weapon in the game is made from up to 3 material types (ie: copper axe is made from: 5 wood, 3 copper, 1 rope) > Ability to store items, or break them down into the materials they are made from. > Crafting system, with the ability to craft items and tools from materials.

There are a few bugs I need to iron out, as well as expanding the game slightly and tidying a few things up before a public release. But compared to the last version, this runs extremely smoothly and is a lot more optimised and well made.

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.

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

"Our work is never over" they said.

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Made my first ever animation.

blender animation experimentation, getting the hang of things fast. arms, rig, & gun models by me ofc

Development of my game Juno. This is the rune equipment system.
