• Monthly Update: August - 6 September 2023

  Hello! In August one of the biggest leaps so far were made. The demo is closer than ever and I can't wait to publish it here within a few months! Here is a short video of gameplay from the starting zone: Voice Acting- The whole demo questchain is now fully voice acted and implemented. The idea is to have the entirety of the mainstory voiced, while the sidequests and npcs will be non verbal with emotion expressed through sound/non verbal instead. Weather- There is now active weather in Lorne. The idea long term is that they all can affect the player in different ways. Here are some weather types implemented: Thunderstorms Rain Snow Sunny Overcast Polishing the Demo- A lot of effort this past month has been to make the demo feel smoother and get rid of any obvious bugs I have encountered when playtesting. Here is a list of general polish: Added background music to starting zone Created a…

Some of the things that is added to the tutorial are: Lighting Quests Dialogue Voicelines Introduction to puzzle mechanics Game Title Reveal- I have been working on learning how to make shorter cinematics. Though I am still learning how to do these things, I was pretty happy how the title reveal came out. Have a watch!

A few of the features of the integrated systems can be seen in the combat introduction: Run code at any specific point…
