DEVLOG #4

The "Big One"

Completed Menu Design

The Main Menu is finished... and ooh boy did it turn out good! The title monster is a little more active now.. especially when you want to start your hunt! I'm very happy with how the robot screen animation turned out!

You should experience this with sound ;)

Level-Art is cooking

I worked on ingame visual level art too! Since the warehouse is currently still the testing ground it was fleshed out first. Pipes, shelves, rubble, dirt etc. Additionally there are now particle effects in the environment. Slight fog to set the mood and a light vignette effect strengthen the scary feel I want to give Palpus X.

Interactive Objects

Doors! And switches to open them! Yes we have doors and they are just as you expect. Wide open! .. if you're lucky.

Sometimes unexpected things will happen and security protocols may lock you in, or let hordes of monsters swarm towards you. Depends on the mood... OH! And there are three different levels of armor you can wear now! Giving you the opportunity to live longer.

Secrets

Why of course there are fricking armors in the wall?! Where do you put YOUR secrets??

NEW. MONSTERS!

Our monsters are too powerful to deliver a small 3GB gif, so have a screenshot instead. Did I mention the forest area? Oh well.

Saving Progress

It may not look like much but you can now officially switch destinations without losing all your stuff or progress. This enables me to put much larger levels into the game.

There were more changes/additions, but I won't cover all here, since there are so many little details and I have to prepare the game for the first closed Alpha Testing phase. Yeah, that's right!

Next up:

- Character Skilling

- More monsters

- More levels

- ???

See you on the next Devlog!
