RTG - The Ray-Traced Game: arcade/puzzle game in development which uses 'software ray-tracing' technology.

Hi All!

New RTG animations after a break. They're showcasing one new game element: "the charged light shooter".


With it, you can turn switches or call elevators on distance, however you must reach given switch or elevator by shooting the 'light bullet'. And here's the catch. Most of the time, it's not straightforward how to reach an elevator you need to call or a switch you need to switch. :)

'Light bullet' after shooting is bouncing from all walls, floors, ceilings, boxes, etc.. You can point your shot and set its initial shoot velocity. There's some dampening, so it will not fly and bounce to infinity. You'll have to check the environment around you and most of the time you'll have to also modify it, so you'll be able to reach your target by shooting light bullet.

So, there's puzzle element to it (how to reach that damn switch?) but also semi-arcade element as with all that bouncing, it's like playing pool ( or maybe some weird ray-traced version of Angry birds ), as you'll need to be precise at aiming and setting right speed for your bullet.

Apart of that, a big chunk of levels built around that mechanics is done (8 levels in total from the last update).

My second RTG vertical for social media, where I'm trying to convey main idea of the game (narrative sci-fi puzzle). I tried to rectify errors from the first video. It is now faster, but I still think I have lot of reserves.

Today made my first vertical RTG promo vid for YT/TikTok. What do you think? Hoy he hecho mi primer video vertical de promo de RTG para YT/TikTok. ¿Que opináis? Music: www.purple-planet.com

RTG - Interim Teaser Just made widescreen version of vertical video I presented here earlier. This one looks better when viewing on desktops. I decided to use this video as interim teaser for the game (as the game will still receive graphics updates).

I made full introduction video of my narrative sci-fi puzzle/platformer on which I'm working. It's 5mins but covers all aspects of the game. And main protagonist finally has an eye, he's not solid one-colored blue box anymore! #scifi #puzzle #platformer

Just made the first slime avatar frame! Become one with the Slime! thanks @gamejolt !

Story of my editor. I made all RTG levels in my old crappy editor to "save time", but in the end, I started writing new editor anyway. Btw, I will make new editor public. Later, I'd like to use it for other games creation, not just RTG levels.
