Dead Drift

3 years ago

Showcasing the advances made in the Level Up / Upgrade Selection system. As players defeat the zombies, they will be able to pick new powers and become stronger, Vampire Survivors style!


The upgrade card art is still a work in progress, and I'm not totally satisfied with it yet. It looks too... solid, right now.

The upgrade icons are placeholders I got from this pack here, from Open Game Art. I'm using them to test where things will go and how they will look. I also think that the card text is still too small, but maybe this is aggravated by how cards 1 and 3 are crooked, making the text harder to read. I'll keep doing some tests in this regard.

Now, for the next steps, I'll code some of the powers and see how the game progresses from them. In this kind of game, powers and upgrades design is what matters the most, and the rest of the game will eventually grow from it and around it.

As soon as I have new powers working, I'll share them with you all here!

So long, suckers!

CONSTRUCT TUTORIAL TIME! I wanted to make a "mini-article" on how to make the distance-based zoom control mechanic I did for Dead Drift since it's so easy!

For this #DrawABirdDay I decided to make a simple animation as if Greedy Grackle was one of the Socks from Sock Town!

Here's Greedy Grackle Sock!

Posting some other DEAD DRIFT EXPERIMENT GIFS. You can see "enemy trucks" (the dark rectangle thingies roving around) AND big zombies (they have 10x the HP of a regular zombie!!)

Some additional comments in the article!

Doki Doki Literature Club is celebrating Monika's birthday and the 8th anniversary of DDLC with exclusive stickers, avatar frames and backgrounds on Game Jolt! 

Head over to the shop to collect yours 👉 https://gamejolt.com/#shop

Here's what I'm thinking to celebrate the 1K followers milestone... the very first SOCK TOWN prototype!

It's heavily inspired by the Reigns game, but instead of being about being a king... it's about being the director of the "Sock Town" TV show!

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

WORKING A BIT ON THE MISSIONS UI!

Last time I posted a kinda bare bones version of this screen, now we got some of its art!

Still not totally satisfied with all elements, but I guess it's already a nice improvement :)

A photo with Abacaxi, one of my dogs!

And, yes, we're both scraggly dudes.

Don't miss out on your chance to design a Game Jolt sticker!

Post YOUR design for a sticker inspired by Arcane, League of Legends, and Nail Art!

After "Design a #GXNailArt Sticker!" ends, we'll pick 3 winners (AND give them one of a kind trophies!)

It's coming, folks!!! Anyone else excited???
