What are mini/miniature projects?


I thought I’d just post this on my first mini project to explain their purporses and just why. So lets start.

Mini projects are for me to improve my pixel art and coding skills, so that I can make my main focus (Team Heroes) better. Also if I practise with this, I can give Developer JDOG more time to do pixel art templates for me to handle. So it’s a win win senario. Two other things I can get out of these mini projects is to grow the help around me (as in fans, not actually coders helping), and feedback about gameplay and other stuff.

So that’s why I decided to start mini projects. Welp, thanks for reading and I’ll cya in a future update. Bye guys.

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)

We're knee deep in multiple large features and "game feel". Quick peek behind the scenes in this weeks Dev Blog: https://bit.ly/2QmmaQM
